1. Well, that sucks.
How is Cleveland supposed to know what a balk is? There hasn't been one called in their league since 1916. :P

2. Another excellent outing by Cain..
and the Giants keep finding ways to win. That bottom of the 7th inning featured 2 errors, a balk, and Schierholtz blowing a for sure lead off triple by falling down between second and third.

Unfortunately for me, I got home all set to turn on the game and though I have 3 network Fox channels, two of them were showing Mets/Rangers and the other had Angels/Dodgers..so I got stuck with just highlights..

The Giants have scored 12 runs total in their last 4 games and have won them all. They're dead last in MLB in runs scored, averaging only 3.4 per game, have a -6 run differential, yet here they are 9 games over .500 and back in first place.

I'm thinking they can't keep winning like this...or can they?
