The Giants bounced back from a crushing loss to beat the hated Dodgers Monday night. That would be a nice win any day. But when you consider the Giants got a great start out of Barry Zito, only to blow a 3-0 7th inning lead in the blink of an eye, and trailed before coming back to win, it makes it all the sweeter. Add to that, Brian Wilson's dominance (1-2-3 9th, all K's) after his nightmare 9th inning Sunday, and Twitter controversy", and you've really got some drama and intrigue.
The Giants could be on a 7 game win streak if not for one bad inning at the worst possible time, but it's hard to be too disappointed with a win against LA and a hard-fought .500 record. Not to mention surviving a tired bullpen only arms -- the little-used Merkin Valdez was the other. I don't even mind that Valdez struggled and vultured the win from Zito. In fact, that kind of makes me happy.
