Melvin allowed Verlander to “talk into” a Giants L
It wasn’t a bad decision to send him out for the 6th, but bad to not have a reliever ready and terrible decision to leave him in with 2 on when he didn’t have strikeout stuff today.
But it should be said i think this Giants team always have a shot. Last season, I feel the game is over at 2-0 and even when they fell back behind 6-3 it still felt like they could get back in it…and almost did.
