Giants, Posey aim to keep rolling in finale with Marlins

Baseball Betting Lines

07/29/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Buster Posey tries to match a San Francisco rookie record by hitting in his 22nd straight game this afternoon, while fellow rookie Madison Bumgarner shoots for a fifth straight win when the San Francisco Giants complete a four-game series with the Florida Marlins at AT&T Park.

Posey's streak, which is the longest in the National League this season, is one short of Willie McCovey's 22-game tear for San Francisco in 1959. It is also the seventh of 20 or more games in San Francisco history.

Jack Clark holds the San Francisco club record by hitting in 26 straight in 1978.

Posey went 1-for-4 on Wednesday, but Andres Torre's bases-loaded single in the 10th inning capped a four-hit day and propelled the Giants to a 10-9 win. Torres added a two-run homer and Juan Uribe had three hits and drove in four runs for San Francisco, which has won six of its last seven games but blew a 9-2 lead after six innings in this one.

"Guys were just grinding out at-bats, pitchers are giving everything they got, attacking the zone," Posey said. "I think guys believe that we're going to win. That's the biggest thing."

Posey's streak tied Kansas City's Jose Guillen, who had a 21-game streak earlier this season, as the second-longest of 2010 and now is two back of Texas' Josh Hamilton's season-long 23-game streak.

"It's cool, it's fun," Posey said afterward. "But it's hard to talk about myself when we just won a great game.'

Florida's Dan Uggla homered for the sixth time in as many games and tied the contest with an RBI double with two outs in the ninth inning. He has 143 homers for his career, tying the Marlins team record set by Mike Lowell. Pinch-hitter Donnie Murphy added a three-run homer and Ronny Paulino clubbed a solo shot for the Marlins.

"It's tough, coming back all the way from 9-2 and losing," Murphy said. "I'd almost lose 9-2 than to come back that much and lose. I'm really happy with the way we came back and the effort we put into it."

Bumgarner, meanwhile, won his fourth straight start on Saturday in Arizona, holding the Diamondbacks to two runs and five hits in seven innings to up his season record to 4-2 to go along with a 2.43 ERA. This will be his first start against the Marlins.

Florida will counter with righty Anibal Sanchez, who is 7-6 with a 3.59 ERA. Sanchez did not get a decision on Saturday against Atlanta, as he allowed two runs and five hits in six innings of a 10-5 loss.

Sanchez did not get a decision against San Francisco earlier in the year in his only other appearance against the Giants.

San Francisco swept a three-game set from the Marlins from May 4-6 and has won seven of the last nine meetings in the series.
