The result was the Giants’ worst loss of the season, an 11-5 blowout at the hands of the Los Angeles Dodgers on Saturday night that knocked them back down to second place in the NL West. Before a ridiculous ninth inning, San Francisco was looking at its worst margin of defeat this season.

Los Angeles Dodgers hitters likely expected SF Giants ace Logan Webb to offer a steady dose of sinkers, sweepers, and changeups. However, he employed a different strategy, mixing in his cutter more than he has all season.
