Los Angeles Dodgers @ San Francisco Giants (game 1)

This was the first game of the 6 that the Giants and Dodgers will be playing against each other in the final days of the regular season.  With the Dodgers holding a 2 game lead in the NL West, it was important for the Giants to win at least one of the games.

Tonight we had Jake Peavy going against Hyun-Jin Ryu.  Unfortunately, AT&T Park has some of the dafter security precautions on the entrances, so I ended up missing the entire first inning whilst waiting to get into the ballpark.  That meant I missed the Giants scoring 4 runs in the bottom of the 1st as they batted around and knocked Ryu out of the game.  Fortunately, throughout the rest of the game, Peavy was rock solid and the Giants went on to register a 9-0 victory, which was something of a surprise, but the Dodgers never recovered from that first inning.
