For the second time since the All-Star break, the Giants were swept in a four-game series by the Dodgers.
Ownage is Ownage
This was certainly one of Kershaw's last appearances at Oracle Park, but the Dodgers never stop churning out stars, and their current best player has terrorized the Giants this season, just as Kershaw has for the last decade-plus. The three-run blast was Betts' fifth against the Giants this year in 13 games. He has driven in 13 runs against them, and his defense is always a game-changer. Betts was the best player in the National League Division Series last year, which made all the difference, and the Giants still haven't figured out a way to slow him down.Jakob Junis is still building back up after missing significant time with a hamstring strain, and he was charged with three earned in 3 2/3 innings on Thursday.
Junis left with two runners on and John Brebbia allowed a three-run homer, cashing in both of Junis' runners. He was pulled after just 79 pitches because the Giants still have him on a pitch count. They expect to take the restrictions off the next time out.
