It doesn't get much uglier than that. The SF Giants just played one of the worst defensive innings you'll ever see. Their four errors in the game don't even begin to tell the whole story. It derailed a cruising Logan Webb and led to the Giants losing a series at home against an inferior Rockies team.
Defense has been a problem all season long. They really shouldn't be this bad, as many of the players contributing to the problem should at least be passable defenders. But what can go wrong has gone wrong defensively. Thairo Estrada, Donovan Walton, Austin Slater, Mike Yastrzemski, and Darin Ruf contributed to the mess on Thursday.
The day prior was much better, as Luis González continued to do his thing as he delivered a walk-off single in the bottom of the 10th. He has played well enough to stick in the majors, but the options game could come into play again with Brandon Belt and LaMonte Wade Jr. getting close to returning. Tommy La Stella could be placed on the IL since he hasn't been able to play in the field (and he hasn't been contributing much with the bat) and Walton could be optioned, but González's option also looms large.
