The Padres ended up with 18 hits, but if it weren’t for Will Venable making a catch so fantastic it looked like an optical illusion, the San Francisco Giants ...

• Wednesday’s lunch, courtesy of R.A. Dickey: a Giant knuckle sandwich

  
  Bay Area Sports Guy — Authority: 504
  The healthiest way to deal with today’s game is to focus on Pablo Sandoval’s single to right with two outs in the fourth. That’s a little early in a ballgame to start talking about no-hitters and jinxes, but R.A. Dickey looked that good and the San Francisco Giants looked that bad in facing him. Dickey didn’t ...

  Raising Matt Cain — Authority: 416
  R.A. Dickey did it all today, mesmerizing Giants hitters with his arsenal of drunken butterflies for 8-1/3 as well as executing a perfect butcher-boy RBI double in the fateful 5th.
