Winning streak

Didn't want to jinx it before yesterday's game, but the Giants have won three straight, which officially means that they're on a winning streak. The points are well made about Bochy's missteps, but it doesn't make a big difference when your pitching staff gives up 3 runs in 29 innings. Lincecum, Sanchez and Correia, as well as the pen have consistently delivered. Looming larger, they've been sitting down 1 batter per inning by the strikeout, (10 Ks in 6 IP for Sanchez) and walking very few. The Giants defense cannot be relied upon to win games, and the offense cannot make up for runs allowed as the result of errors or situational hitting RBIs that come as the result of walks.
