Brandon Crawford went 3-for-4 with an RBI double and a game-tying solo homer in the ninth inning of Wednesday's loss to the Diamondbacks.

Crawford had three of the Giants' eight hits and their only two RBI in the extra innings defeat. The longball came off of David Hernandez, who was filling in at closer with J.J. Putz unavailable. Crawford is now batting .320 with four homers and 10 RBI on the season. He won't keep it up, but ride him while he's hot.

Brandon Crawford went 3-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday afternoon's loss to the Brewers.

Crawford was batting out of the fifth spot in the Giants' order and did not disappoint. The 26-year-old shortstop is now hitting .352/.435/.593 with three home runs and seven RBI in 16 games this season. But he's a .241/.308/.345 career hitter in the major leagues so we have trouble believing the hotness will last for much longer.
