From the Porch: Seattle

Well, rats, Giants lose 2 out of 3 in Seattle to the last-place AL West team. Friday night was a typical Ryan Vogelsong start; he always has his shaky moments and gets himself in trouble but pushes through it. He went seven innings, as he always seems to do, and got the win. He's 6-2 with a 2.29 ERA. On offense, Melky and Buster had homers; Melky's cooled down, but how can you complain?

Saturday was this year's typical Lincecum game; he gave up two homers in the first inning and then looked like his ol' self for a while; Giants scratch back and give him a lead and he blows it immediately. 2-8 now with a 6.19 ERA, amazing.

And Sunday was a Father's Day pitching duel, Madison Bumgarner was great, going 8 innings and giving up only a run, but Felix Hernandez was great for the Mariners as well. Giants had what they needed -- bases loaded with one out in the 9th and their best hitter, Melky, up, but he struck out on three pitches.

On now to more interleague against the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, Cain coming off his perfecto goes against old Giant Jerome Williams. TV: 7 p.m., CSN-BA.
