CINCINNATI -- Andrew Abbott and Derek Law combined on two-hitter, Luke Maile homered and the Cincinnati Reds the beat San Francisco Giants 5-1 on Thursday for a four-game split.
"I actually came up to Luke after that last inning and said I didn't have my best stuff at all today but at the end of the day, you have to go out and compete," Abbott said of his catcher."I made some good adjustments in the middle of the game. I was just focusing on direction, so I stopped those wide misses. I made a good enough adjustment just to get in the zone."
"You knew they were going to send him as soon as the ball left the bat," Maile said."It is like we do in spring training. We know he's coming home. It's going to be close." "We had some really good at-bats," Giants manager Gabe Kapler said."We hit some deep fly balls and we were swinging at strikes. In the short-term, we didn't get the results. We had better at bats than the results showed."
