"Seven resolute innings"

That's how Chris Haft of mlb.com just described Matt Cain's performance today in San Diego in what turned into a relatively easy 8-3 vic at Petco. He now has seven wins this year and is at 76-75 for his career.

Gregor Blanco hit his third homer of the season -- his second in two days -- and now has six in his career. 

Back to Cain -- Here's a great tweet...

Stat of day: Cain 12 straight starts 6+ innings, longest by Giant to open season since Atlee Hammaker had 21 in 1983.
