Dravecky and LaCoss

Readers of this blog know that I'm a sucker for recalling great moments in Giants history, so the title of this post has to do with the last time that the Gmen shut out the Dodgers out home back to back -- 1987, when Dave Dravecky and Mike LaCoss pulled it off.

Tonight, it was Ryan Vogelsong following Barry Zito. How does that taste, Dodger fans? Mmmm-mmmm. Tasty! That team went to the postseason - the first Giants team in 16 years to do that.

Anyhow, the Dodgers look anything but invincible, at least based on what I saw tonight from Section 310. What Henry Schulman's game story doesn't mention is that Clayton Kershaw won 4 games last year from the Giants in head to head confrontations with Tim Lincecum. But this year, Vogelsong has won both times. That's Ryan Vogelsong, as in a guy who was pitching in Japan in 2010.
