FLA 5, SF 0: One-Hit One Day from the Deadline
El Lefty Malo — Thursday's utter domination by Anibal Sanchez, who was throwing everything for strikes, even the knuckleball he doesn't throw, makes the Giants' Wednesday come-from-ahead Torrespalooza and Tuesday's victorious competence against the big, nasty Josh Johnson that much more important. Lucky to...

San Diego Padres July 29, 2010POSTGAME NOTES: Posey “indifferent” to hit streak ending, a lefty for Giants to consider, Dodgers arriving
Extra Baggs | San Jose Mercury News — When the Giants began this series with the Florida Marlins, I identified a major bump for Buster Posey to keep his hitting streak going. It was Josh Johnson, the major league ERA leader. When Posey flared a single off Johnson, I thought for the first time that he’d break Jack Clark’s San Francisco-era record of 26 [...]
San Francisco Giants July 29, 2010Post-game thread: Anibal Sanchez one-hits Giants
McCovey Chronicles — More photos » Jed Jacobsohn - Getty Images So, so dirty. Browse more photos » See, that's the problem with winning baseball. When a pitcher shuts your team down, you can't fall back on snarky jokes. You can't assume that Anibal Sanchez was just lucky to face the Giants instead of a major league team. The Giants have held their own against Josh Johnson, Clayton Kershaw, and Johan Santana over the last couple of weeks. So when Anibal Sanchez absolutely dominates the Giants -- one hit! -- the only respons...
San Francisco Giants July 29, 2010SF 6, FLA 4: Do The Giants Really Need to Make a Trade?
El Lefty Malo — Not if they keep scoring runs off pitchers like Josh Johnson and Ubaldo Jimenez and they only need a couple innings of relief per game, with one of those innings supplied by an indefatigable Brian Wilson. It's exciting times down...
San Francisco Giants July 28, 2010Giants step up against Josh Johnson
San Francisco Chronicle — The Giants can be a funny bunch. Stick a pitcher with a five-something ERA on the mound, and they sometimes struggle. Put a Cy Young candidate on the hill, and they can do some serious damage. They have beaten Roy Oswalt three times this year, with most of...

Last month, I would have rather watched the commentary track to the "Secret Window" DVD than watch the Giants offense against Josh Johnson. Tonight, it wasn’t as daunting. Fine, bring him on. We’ll counter with Aaron Rowand! and Edgar Renteria! and, uh, well maybe it was a little daunting. But it didn’...

Fish Tank | Palm Beach Post — Josh Johnson wasn’t at his best tonight in the Marlins' 6-3 loss to the Giants. The Marlins are back to .500.
