Bruce Bochy Hospitalized, Won’t Manage Giants In Miami Opener
Pence and Brandon Belt became the first pair of Giants to strike out four times in a game since June 4, 1997, when Glenallen Hill and Bill Mueller did it in a game started by the Dodgers Ramon Martinez.

Marlins right fielder Giancarlo Stanton had the go-ahead RBI with a first-inning double that shattered his bat in half.
Crawford, entered the night hitting.265 and 7 hits later pulled him to a.278 average. Moore, acquired July 31 from the Tampa Bay Rays, has recorded two of them.
The Giants shortstop tied a major league record with seven hits and drove in the game-winning run in the top of the 14th inning in an 8-7 victory over the Marlins.
The Giants have not said what sent him to the hospital but claim he is “resting comfortably” and will be monitored over night.
“Bochy picked a heck of a day to take off”.
Crawford, who went 7 for 8 in the game, became the first player with seven hits in a game since the Pirates’ Rennie Sennett did it in a nine-inning game at Wrigley Field against the Cubs on September 16, 1975. They clinched a losing record on their nine-game road trip but could salvage a series victory here behind struggling right-hander Jeff Samardzija on Wednesday.
Crawford’s hits came off six different pitchers.
The seven hits set a franchise mark. I think I do a good job of putting it behind me, better than I used to.
“I mean, in the history of the Giants and all the great players that came through, it’s pretty insane to be in that small company”, Crawford said.
His first hit came against Rick Reuschel. “I don’t know”, Marlins manager Don Mattingly said. “We didn’t figure it out today”.
In the first inning, Marlins speedster hit a leadoff single and dashed for second base when he saw Johnny Cueto s pitch skip in the dirt. “I probably be more stressed if I weren’t here”.
Denard Span hit a leadoff single and scored from first when Buster Posey sliced a two-out double that hit the right-center field wall on one bounce.NOTES: Giants manager Bruce Bochy was feeling ill on Monday morning and checked into University of Miami Hospital, where he will be kept overnight.
In the 13th, Crawford joined an extremely short list when he hit a one-out triple just the third six-hit game in the Giants’ San Francisco era, joining Benjamin (in 1995, when he famously had a hit in 10 consecutive at-bats over two games at Wrigley Field) and Jesus Alou in 1964.
There s nothing else I want to do other than what I m doing right now.
Talk about a night you won’t ever forget, any fan tonight at Marlins park was in for a treat and so was Giants SS Brandon Crawford. “I was just trying to get the runner in any way I could”. Not to be overlooked was Travis’ teammate, Edwin Encarnacion, who was 3 for 5 with a home run and three RBIs.
Crawford had five singles, a double and a triple. He left the bases loaded again by striking out pitcher Madison Bumgarner, who was pinch-hitting because the Giants had no one left on the bench. “It doesn’t matter if you start or relieve”. Crawford’s single in the eighth tied it at 7.
“McGowan was outstanding”, Mattingly said. “They bounced back and from there it was insane after that”.
In St. Louis, Yadier Molina started and ended a five-run rally in the ninth as the Cardinals stunned Cincinnati. Suzuki tipped his helmet in appreciation before grounding out in his only at-bat.

Wotus avoided specifics when discussing Bochy’s condition but referenced the past heart issue while explaining why they didn’t talk more in depth about the club. “We did a lot of good things to stay in that game”. The Giants will start left-hander Matt Moore (7-7, 4.04 ERA overall, 0-0, 3.00 ERA with San Francisco).
