12:16 am
week away. shane victoriano but it rolled off his rib and hit the wall. sanchez at first base playing it cautiously as he winds up getting back. giants have runners at first and second. after a sacrifice bunt by sanchez aubrey huff with a shot up the middle. one run in but victorino has andre torres out. and buster posey with the hit. the three off of ryan howard. that allows aubrey huff to score all the way from second. we are tied 2-2. bottom of the third a bizarre turn here. jonathan sanchez 50th pitch of the night hit chase utley square in the back. he didn't appreciate it. tossed the ball back to sanchez. he took exception to that. same something to utley. he responds like what are you saying, huh? both benches wine up clearing for a couple of minutes. sanchez just completely lost his composure.
