SAN FRANCISCO Last week, rookie Sammy Long noted that he had checked off most of the big milestones over his first three Major League outings: first appearance, first start, first win.
“I’m knocking these firsts out of the way pretty swiftly,” Long said after defeating the Phillies on Father’s Day. “It feels good to get the first win. I gave up the first bomb, so thank goodness that’s out of the way. It’s been a pretty action-packed first three outings.”
The action continued in the 25-year-old left-hander’s fourth big league appearance on Sunday afternoon at Oracle Park, which marked his first foray into the Bay Bridge Series. But Long couldn t overcome early command issues, and the Giants bats fell flat in a 6-2 loss to the A s that denied them a three-game sweep.
