Sometimes the pitcher wins and sometimes the hitter wins, but Giants left-hander Sammy Long really got the better of Mets star Javier Báez with a pitch Tuesday night.
B¨¢ez was way out in front of Long¡¯s well-executed 78 mph changeup, as the camera angle down the third-base line illustrated well.
Long went on to fool B¨¢ez with another changeup in almost the same spot on his next pitch, but credit B¨¢ez -- he worked his way back to draw a walk leading off the second inning. Overall, it was Long¡¯s night in Queens, however, as the rookie worked 5 1/3 scoreless innings against the Mets¡¯ struggling offense as the Giants cruised to an 8-0 victory.
