Giants Brandon Crawford has 7 hits in 14 inning win vs Florida

[Auggie]

First player to do that since 1975, 5th in MLB history. Raised his average by about 13 points. 8-7 final.

1. Number seven drove in the game-winning run in the top of the 14th

And to think Brandon Crawford got snubbed in this year's All-Star game.


Meanwhile, Pence and Posey are competing for the most beat up veteran player that keeps playing award. Hunter Pence fouled a ball off his face Saturday and Buster Posey did a nose plow into third last night. I suspect Posey is scheduled to receive some remedial base sliding instructions as soon as Bochy gets out of the hospital.

2. It's pretty amazing no Giant had hit 7 before too

considering some of the guys who came before Crawford like Ott, Mays and McCovey.

Great photos. I'm relieved neither of those injuries were serious. Posey earned a day off today. Maybe Pence will get a rest too -- he looked awful at the plate last night.

3. Buster Posey may have earned a day off...

But dimes to donuts says he'll be holding his stick wanting to step in and pinch hit. Speaking of pinch hitting, did you notice they started using Bumgarner as a pinch hitter? (he's bating .500 as a pinch hitter!)

4. It took them 14 innings to beat the Florida Gators?!

The NL club down there has been known as the Miami Marlins for a few years now.

5. Whoa!

6. Hey Dude ...

your Nats, my Tribe. Looking forward to a good series.

7. Yep. A little over an hour to game time.

Max vs. Trevor.
