After a 12-24 start to the season when nearly everything went wrong, the breaks are finally starting to go in favor of the San Francisco Giants. Eduardo Nunez was credited with a two-run infield single when Los Angeles pitcher Brandon McCarthy lost track of a baserunner and the Giants beat the Dodgers 8-4 on Monday night for their season-high fourth straight win. The hit by Nunez that scored Brandon Crawford from second base was the key play in a four-run fourth inning that broke the game open and helped Matt Cain (3-1) earn his second win of the season against the Dodgers.

SAN FRANCISCO — Even when they were the worst team in the league earlier this season, the Giants had success against the Dodgers. On the fourth night of their resurgence, they pulled away early. The Giants scored four in the fourth and kept tacking on, winning 8-4 in the first game of a big three-game set at AT&T Park. A day after clinching their first three-game winning streak of the season, they pushed it to four. As he did April 24 — a much different time for the team — Matt Cain dominated the Dodgers. He gave up one run over 6 2/3, walking off to a standing ovation. The Giants had everything tilting their way early. Cain put six runners on in the first four innings but benefited from Continue to Article

SAN FRANCISCO — Sometimes it’s good to be a little lucky. The Giants enjoyed their share of fortune Monday and then translated that into some good baseball to extend their season-best winning streak to four games with a 8-4 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers at AT&T Park. “We did a lot of good things,” Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. “Very aggressive on the bases, the stolen bases and advancing to the next base. … The guys were aggressive tonight. They played well.” On a day Giants right fielder Hunter Pence landed on the disabled list with a left hamstring strain — he’s the team’s 13th player and fifth former All-Star to miss time this season — it helped to see this long-awaited winning streak Continue to Article

SAN FRANCISCO -- As expected, the Giants placed Hunter Pence on the 10-day disabled list Monday with a strained left hamstring. Mac Williamson was called up from Triple-A Sacramento to take Pence's roster spot. Pence was first out of the lineup on Friday, although he pinch-hit late in a 17-inning win. He didn't play over the weekend, so the Giants can back-date the DL stint to Saturday, May 13. It's unclear how long Pence is expected to be out, although it should be a short stint, since he was available to pinch-hit Sunday. He will be eligible to return during the Giants' four-game series against the Cubs next week in Chicago. "It looks like it'll be a few days," manager Bruce Bochy said before Continue to Article

2016 saw the Los Angeles Dodgers in the NLCS for the fourth time since 2008 — their fourth consecutive season in the playoffs. While that success hasn’t translated to any World Series trophies since 1988, the Dodgers have certainly had plenty of individually great players in their history — including some of the best pitchers to ever step on the mound in a baseball game. Here are the 30 greatest Brooklyn and Los Angeles Dodgers of the modern era based on batting and pitching stats and awards won. 1. Continue to Article
