Mike Leake is human.
The light hitting San Francisco Giants have scored four runs on seven hits in the first three innings. Aaron Rowand hitting .225 and benched for lack of offense on Wednesday hit a solo home run as did Aubrey Huff.
Leake struck out the first two hitters but allowed two hits and a walk in the first as the Giants jumped in front.
At the plate however, Leake, hitting an amazing .417 drew a walk and advanced as Brandon Phillips singled to extend his hitting streak to 13 games.
San Francisco starter, Todd Wellemeyer, grounded into a double play to end the third and did not return to the mound. Denny Bautista is the emergency reliever and the Reds have scored two runs and are still batting in the third.
