Giants postseason hopes technically alive after win against Arizona

The Giants live to see another day on the thinnest ice.

But the Giants will need to win out their remaining five games and the Phillies and Brewers must lose all of their games for the Giants to make the postseason. To keep their season alive, the Giants turned the tables on Diamondbacks starter Merrill Kelly, a pitcher who had them in a chokehold entering Friday’s game.

Evan Longoria hit two home runs — his 21st career multi-homer game and second this year. Mike Yastrzemski homered, too. Joc Pederson tripled off the brick wall and scored on the same trip around the bases with some defensive ineptitude from the Diamondbacks.
