Additional Notes
• Ty Blach threw 106 pitches on Sunday afternoon, which is a mark he hadn't reached in nearly two years. On July 18, 2017 he tossed 106 in a one-run start for the Giants against the Indians. That year, he reached at least 106 on four occasions, including a 112-pitch complete game on the road against Philadelphia.
• It was just the third time in 29 relief appearances that lefty Fernando Abad allowed more than one run in an outing. He entered the game with a 2.27 ERA, including just three earned runs over his last 15.2 innings.
