PITTSBURGH -- Matt Cains mind drifted.
Nike Air Max Classic Bw . He couldnt help it.
A year to the day after throwing the 22nd perfect game in baseball history, the
San Francisco Giants ace didnt give up a hit through four innings on Thursday
night against the Pittsburgh Pirates. "I tried not to think about it but there
was enough talk about it that I couldnt really tune out," Cain said. A single by
Pittsburghs Garrett Jones leading off the bottom of the fifth rendered any
discussion of Cain making history again moot, one of the few things that didnt
go right for the Giants in a 10-0 romp. Cain (5-3) struck out three and walked
two over 6 2-3 innings. "He had good command of all his pitches," San Francisco
manager Bruce Bochy said. "Hes in a good place right now with his delivery and
command. I like where hes at." Hunter Pence hit his 11th homer of the season,
while Buster Posey, Gregor Blanco and Joaquin Arias had three hits apiece for
San Francisco, which avoided a sweep by sending the Pirates to their worst loss
of the year. Not bad for a team missing injured stars Pablo Sandoval, Marco
Scutaro and Angel Pagan, all of whom are on the disabled list. "Its a great
sign," Bochy said. "Were missing three big bats. You hope guys pick it up and
they have the last couple of games. Blanco had a big game. Really, a lot of guys
had big games." Even if it wasnt required on a night Cain seemed to move past
the inconsistent play thats dogged him over the first two months of the season.
The three-time All-Star has run hot and cold this season, getting off to a
horrific start in April before going 4-0 in May. The Giants lost both of his
starts this month, scoring all of one run in the process. Given a healthy dose
of support, Cain didnt let it go to waste. "I am throwing the ball a whole lot
better," he said. "Im trying to eliminate that big inning. I had done a good job
of that for some years now but Ive kind of had trouble with it this year. Its a
matter of putting it in the past and getting guys out." San Franciscos outburst
spoiled the return of Pittsburgh starter Charlie Morton (0-1), who was
celebrating an anniversary of his own. The righthander underwent Tommy John
surgery on his right elbow on June 14, 2012. Just short of a year later, he
surrendered four runs on seven hits, striking out five and walking one. The
right-hander also hit three batters while making his first major league start in
381 days. "I wish it had gone better but I think I can take quite a few
positives," Morton said. The Giants didnt knock Morton around so much as chip
away. San Francisco touched Morton for a run in each of the first two innings
then added two more in the fifth before breaking things open with five runs in
the sixth against reliever Mike Zagurski. The romp was a welcome change for the
defending World Series champions, who have struggled on the road. San Francisco
came in just 4-12 in its last 16 games away from AT&T Park but had little
trouble with Cain returning to form. Cain tossed a one-hitter against the
Pirates last season, the lone mistake being a fastball in the sixth inning that
McDonald turned into a single. Two months later he retired all 27 batters he
faced against the overmatched Astros. He didnt overwhelm Pittsburgh this time,
instead letting his defence do most of the work. Cain wasted little time between
pitches and the Pirates could never seem to get comfortable. "We saw the good
Matt Cain tonight," Pirates manager Clint Hurdle said. San Francisco certainly
looked at ease, pushing the lead to 4-0 during a weird fifth inning. Zagurski
hit Brandon Crawford with one out and Posey smacked a ground-rule double to the
gap in left-centre. Crawford would have easily scored if the ball hadnt hopped
over the fence. Things evened out when Pence hit a dribbler that turned into a
rundown between third and home. Crawford smacked into Pittsburgh third baseman
Pedro Alvarez during the chase, with home plate umpire Tim McClellan awarding
Crawford home plate after ruling Alvarez impeded Crawfords path. Andres Torres
hit a sacrifice fly, but a potentially big inning came undone when a liner by
Arias went right at Pence standing off second base. The San Francisco outfielder
dove forward to avoid the ball only to have it deflect off his helmet. Pence
earned a bit of revenge the next inning when he smoked a 3-run homer off
Zagurski and the rout was on. NOTES: Scutaro is still in considerable pain after
the pinky finger in his left hand was drilled by a pitch on Tuesday. Bochy said
there is considerable swelling and isnt sure when Scutaro will play again ...
The Giants begin a three-game series in Atlanta on Friday. Madison Bumgarner
(5-4, 3.58) faces Atlantas Kris Medlen (3-6, 2.87) ... San Franciscos Nick
Noonan appeared to have his first major league home run in the ninth inning when
he hit a ball to right-centre. The call was overturned when replay showed the
ball hit the top of the fence but did not go over.

from the 40th-ranked Pospisil, from Vernon, B.C., who admitted that he cut back
on his training sessions over the last few days to conserve energy as the long
ATP season finishes next week at the Paris Masters.

made up for the brief burst of pain. NEW YORK -- Bon Jovis upcoming album is
entitled, This House is Not For Sale, and apparently neither are the Tennessee
Titans.Earlier this week, CBS Sports reported that Bon Jovi and Peyton Manning
were monitoring the Tennessee Titans ownership situation, leading to speculation
they were looking to purchase the Nashville-based team. That prompted Titans
acting owner, Amy Adams Strunk to say the team is not for sale.On Wednesday, Jon
Bon Jovi sat down with The Associated Press to set the record straight.Let me
dispel the rumors right now, he said with a laugh. I wake up to these headlines
with my name on them and theyre just not true. I want to make it perfectly clear
that the team is not for sale, nor has it ever been, and I respect and admire
(late franchise founder) Bud Adams legacy.

love the NFL, and I did in fact try to buy the Buffalo Bills, but this has
nothing to do with that. All Im doing -- Im in the music business. End of
