News
Giants starter Barry Zito took his first loss since April 16 on Tuesday night against the Blue Jays. He allowed eight runs (five earned) on 12 hits over 5 2/3 innings in a 10-6 defeat.

The left-hander was tagged with a six-spot in the first before settling down. Then in the sixth, he put two men on with two outs before being pulled for George Kontos, who allowed both inherited runners to score.

Zito, who threw 101 pitches, also struck out two and walked two while taking his second loss.

His next start is scheduled for Sunday against the Rockies. When Zito faced Colorado on April 10, he worked seven scoreless innings for a win.

News
Giants first baseman Brandon Belt has been heating up over his last 20 games, batting .305 with five home runs. So, why is he still owned in less than 60 percent of leagues?

Our Nando Di Fino said on Friday’s broadcast of Fantasy Baseball Today that he doesn’t see Belt’s ownership percentage staying low for very long. The term “breakout” was tossed around a few times in his assessment of Belt’s expected rest-of-season production.

News
Yes, those nine home runs Matt Cain allowed in his first six starts were frustrating, but the Giants ace seemed to get back on track with dominant outings May 5 and May 10, allowing just one home run between the two.

So what happened in his latest start Thursday, when he allowed three home runs and six earned runs in 6 1/3 innings?

For starters, he was pitching at Coors Field -- and not the snow-covered Coors Field we've seen for much of the season, but the one that typically accompanies 81-degree temperatures (you know, suitable baseball weather).

After a couple of years of relatively fair play with the introduction of the humidor, Coors Field was back to being kryptonite for many of the pitchers who came through there last year. Now that the weather is back to normal, I have a feeling Cain won't be the only notable pitcher to suffer from its effects.

Giants catcher Buster Posey's solo home run in the eighth inning Friday against Colorado narrowed what was a five-run deficit at one point to just one, but the team ended up falling just short in a 10-9 loss.

Posey did his part, reaching base in three of his five plate appearances, going 2 for 3 with a walk and a sacrifice fly. He drove in two runs and scored two more. He is now batting .293 on the season.

News
Giants starter Madison Bumgarner, who had a solid performance his last time out, took a step back as he endured his worst outing of the year Friday night against the Rockies.

Bumgarner (4-2), who failed to protect an early four-run lead, surrendered five runs in the fifth, including a grand slam to Jordan Pacheco that broke the game open. He was charged with nine runs -- seven earned -- and eight hits over 4 2/3 innings of work. He struck out four and walked two in a 10-9 defeat.

Bumgarner has allowed two home runs in his last three starts. He is scheduled to make his next start Wednesday at home against Washington. He went 1-1 with a 5.14 ERA in two starts last season against the Nationals, including a complete game on Aug. 14, 2012.

Crawford lined a bases-clearing double that sparked a five-run sixth inning for the Giants. He finished 2 for 4 with two runs scored and three RBI in an 8-6 victory. It was his fifth multi-hit game in his last nine games.

Giants manager Bruce Bochy told reports Thursday that starter Ryan Vogelsong will make his next scheduled start Monday against the Nationals.

Vogelsong endured his shortest outing since 2004 on Wednesday at Toronto. He is 0-3 with a whopping 11.81 ERA in his last four starts and has not won a decision since April 11.

"This guy has done a lot," Bochy said. "He's earned some things, including a longer leash."

Vogelsong shelled eight runs over 2 2/3 innings of work his previous meeting against the Nationals in 2012.
