Curt Casali drove in 2 and reached base 4 times in the Giants’ ninth straight win over Colorado.
SAN FRANCISCO — The Giants were in need of a slump buster, and through the first two games of this series, the Colorado Rockies have provided just that. So, no different than last year.
Casali, who entered the game hitting .189/.250/.243, drove in two runs with singles in his first two at-bats and a bases-loaded walk as part of a three-run fifth inning. A second run scored on his second-inning single when Rockies right fielder Charlie Blackmon bobbled Casali’s ball, prompting third-base coach Mark Hallberg to wave home Brandon Crawford, too. His 3-for-3 night raised his batting average to .250.
Blackmon’s was the only official error — after two the night before — but it was one of many miscues. Colorado has induced the most double plays of any team in the majors this season, but it botched two would-be double plays on ground balls from LaMonte Wade Jr. and Thairo Estrada, who both came around to score after reaching on plays that went down in scorebook as fielder’s choices.
