    Giants left-hander Ty Blach finally got his first win of the season and was quick to spread the credit around.

    There was the defense, particularly rookie Christian Arroyo, who made a pair of stellar plays in his first start at second base. A timely home run by Brandon Belt and an even more clutch tiebreaking hit from Brandon Crawford helped, too.

    Most importantly, Blach pointed to catcher Buster Posey's game plan, which worked out nicely in stretching San Francisco's winning streak to five.

    "Buster does a great job behind the plate against these guys," Blach said after the Giants' 2-1 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday. "He knows these hitters so well, so just being able to know that you've got confidence in him, that makes it a lot easier for you."
