The Giants followed an increasingly familiar formula to victory against cross-bay rivals Oakland A's with a solid start from the pitching, timely hitting and throttling relief pitching to grab the W 6-3. Key lines:
Aaron Rowand- 2 for 4, 2B. I think Rowand has had a key line in just about every game he's appeared in this spring. Let's just hope he can keep it going in the regular season.
John Bowker- 2 for 3, 2 2B, BB. Bowker isn't about to let to door he's wedged his foot in close, is he?
Bengie Molina- 2 for 4. BA= .390. Get the feeling that Big Money feels like he has something to prove this season?
Juan Uribe- 2 for 3, BB. Uribe played SS tonight with DeRosa at 2B. Do you think that just might have something to do with the way Bowker's been hitting?
Todd Wellemeyer- 5 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 2 BB, 4 K's, GO/AO= 9/2.
Romo, Runzler and Wilson pitched perfect 7'th, 8'th and 9'th innings respectively.
There are rumors of an impending contract extension for Brian Wilson. I'm sure some will argue against it on the grounds that closers are fungible. Just remember how long it took the Giants to get from Robb Nen to Brian Wilson and how painful the interim was.
