Another tight game with the Giants taking the lead late, courtesy of
another Brandon Belt HR, his 4th in 3 games since he returned.

The bullpen made the lead stick and the Giants took the series away
from another of the "best" teams in MLB.

Giants 5 Milwaukee 4

HR: Run (#15 in the 1st) Belt (15 in the 7th)

Even Zack Littell, just called up from Sacramento, went the last two
innings to get the save, with Watson getting the win.

Good series. They got easier series coming up at home vs. Rockies and
Diamondbacks but they can't relax like they did vs. Pittsburgh a couple
of weeks ago.

The Diamondbacks have proved to be difficult and most of that is on
the Giants' starting rotation. They're just not pitching well and it
shows when the starters are getting tagged for runs, oft times blowing
big leads.

The bullpen is getting hosed because the starters can't get into the
later innings. It was good to see Watson and lIttel pitching well.

There hasn't been much wrong with the offense, other than injuries.
Interesting dynamic with some of the HR's yesterday, with Posey and
Dickerson hitting long balls to the right field, with Dickersons going
into the Bay.
