The San Francisco Giants’ Kevin Gausman, rear, is congratulated by teammate Brandon Belt after a hit that scored Brandon Crawford during their MLB game against the Atlanta Braves in San Francisco on Friday. Instead, Gausman hit a flyball to shallow right field and Brandon Crawford beat the throw home with a head-first slide. I think the fans enjoyed it, seeing a pitcher hit it in the 11th inning... That was just a hell of an at-bat — pitcher, position player, it was a great at-bat,” manager Gabe Kapler said of Gausman. San Francisco starter Logan Webb struck out nine and did not walk a batter, allowing two runs on six hits.
