RHP Adam Wainright (pictured Left) pitched a Masterful Game in Game 4 going 7 Innings and allowing 4 Hits (1 via the Round Tripper), 1 Run to cross the Dish, 5 Strikeouts, and No Free Passes. They say in October its about Pitching and Defense and right now no one is doing it better than the Tigers (2012 AL Pennant Winners) and the Redbirds who look like they are going for an unheard of Repeat in the Show.
Giants 2012 Cy Young Winner Tim Lincecum #TeamCheechandChong got Smoked Literally and Figuratively by allowing 4 Runs on 6 Hits, 3 Strikeouts and 3 Free Passes. He was chased from the Hill after 4 and 2/3. The Reliable Giants Bullpen didn't stop the Bleeding either as Lincecum gave up a Crooked 2 in the 1st and 5th Inning and the Giants Middle Men of Kontos and Mota also gave up Crooked 2's in the 6th and 7th Frames respectively.
The Giants didn't have a lot of Ducks on the pond to knock in as the aforementioned Wainright allowed only 4 Hits through 7 Frames. The Giants left 6 on the Bags and hit 6 for 33. They were a dreadful 1 for 5 with Runners in Scoring Position. The redbirds on the same token went 12 for 34 for the game and 5 for 12 with Ducks on the Pond (RISP).
