SF Giants enter All-Star break with playoff hopes intact after taking 3 of 4 from Brewers

SAN FRANCISCO — The Giants are no longer reeling. In fact, you could even say they enter the All-Star break on a roll.

With a 9-5 win Sunday afternoon, the Giants took three of four games from the NL Central-leading Milwaukee Brewers, ending the first half of the season with seven wins in their final nine games, after preceding this stretch by dropping 14 of 18.

Logan Webb, who started the season with six innings of one-run ball on Opening Day, finished the first half with six more strong innings. A first-inning home run from Willy Adames amounted to the Brewers’ only damage off Webb, before he handed the game off to Jakob Junis, who allowed one inherited runner and three more to score in his first appearance since straining his hamstring last month.
