Opening Day Cain 1-Hitter
The San Francisco Giants season home opener took place today. It was a sunny, bit blustery day that was welcomed by fans, especially after last night's lightening striking thunder storms attacked the bay area with a vengeance.
The Giants came home after a 3-4 road swing that began 0-3. Pitching has been very sketchy, with ace starter Tim Lincecum having two very unFreak-like outings. Who woulda thunk that big money Barry Zito would pull the team out of their starting slump by winning the fourth game of the season in Colorado.
Today's opening day pitcher was the workhouse, Matt Cain, who blew a six run lead in his first game of the season, something that just about never happens to Cain. In today's game he was back to being himself and some might say better.
Matt Freakin Cain, 9 innings 2 hits 11 strike outs 0 runs
Yeah, that's what I asked; who was the noodle who gave up the hit?
Oh well, It's a long season and just seeing Cain back to solid, shutdown form is enough to celebrate. After the start the Giants had this season, Cain's 1-Hitter eases my concerns about the pitching staff and reassures me that this season can be another magical season. Besides folks, it's just too dang early to stop believin Championship. Where the heck is Ashkon?
Final Score
Pirates 0
Giants 5
