The Giants won 3-0. Patrick Bailey had the game-winning homer, Tyler Mahle was brilliant through seven innings, and Ryan Walker closed it out again. Logan Webb will go for the sweep tomorrow.

We were trying to figure out if maybe Vitello should pinch hit for Patrick Bailey and boom Bailey hit a three-run homer. Clutch Bailey back?
