Happy Tuesday, San Francisco Giants fans. In case you missed it, Alex Cobb pitched a complete game shutout last night, leading the Giants to a 4-0 win over the St. Louis Cardinals, and a three-game winning streak.
And as they seek to make it a four-game streak, the Giants will turn to John Brebbia, who will be the opener for the Giants.
Openers were the flavor of the day for a little while, but they’ve lost popularity over the last two or so years. This is the first time they’ve used an opener this season, after using one 17 times last year.
