It took a walk-off home run from Brandon Crawford after Junis allowed 1 run over a season-high 7 innings but was bested by Merrill Kelly’s 7 shutout innings.
SAN FRANCISCO — In a positive development for the Giants postseason hopes, Jakob Junis returned to form Tuesday night against the Diamondbacks. A not-so-good development saw the Giants fail to crack their Kryptonite this season that has taken the form of Arizona right-hander Merrill Kelly.After being blanked for eight innings and two outs into the ninth, Brandon Crawford sent a walk-off home run over the center field wall to beat the D-backs, 2-1, and extend their winning streak to five games.
“There’s always a chance,” Estrada said, smiling, through Spanish-language translator Erwin Higueros. Junis pumped his fist as Seth Beer swung through a 1-2 changeup for the final out of the seventh inning. Junis hadn’t completed five innings since being activated just before the All-Star break while posting a 7.16 ERA. In seven innings on Tuesday, he resembled the pitcher who posted a 2.63 ERA prior to the injury — possibly even better.
