Bad Zito is back, though hopefully just for one night.
Randy Winn is going to catch that. And he'll do it real classy-like too.
Okay. So he pitched like last year? Low 80s fastball? No command?

I missed the inning of fail, but early on he was throwing the patented belt high 85mph fastball a lot.

NO!
lots of strikes – 0-2, 1-2 counts – then 90+mph fastballs right down the middle
Thanks for the responses, guys. I was just getting updates on my phone and was blown away when it went from 1-0 to 8-0.

Conor Gillaspie made an error.
If the Giants win they’re tied for the division lead with seven games left in the first half. This series against division-leading Visalia is crucial if the Giants want to get a playoff berth.
