Looks like the rest did us good.
San Francisco Giants: 8
Colorado Rockies: 0
Barry Zito looks good in getting his first win in a Giants uniform. Do y'all know how hard it is to get a shutout at the Rockies' home field? The place is a mile high (there is a purple line of seats in the upper deck.. that is literally the point where you are one mile above sea level. Balls that would be doubles most other places land in the parking lot. Since 1995, there have only been 14 previous goose eggs. (and only one game that ended in regulation 1-0.)
More amazingly, our bullpen held onto the shutout.

On a topic having nothing to do with that boring ball-and-stick game...
