sad news; Camilo Doval’s suspended after ‘tough spot’ in triumphant Giants……

Camilo Doval’s 15-day sojourn in the Minors came to an end Saturday, when the Giants’ erstwhile closer was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento ahead of the club’s at T-Mobile Park.

Doval didn’t return to his usual ninth-inning duties, which have now been taken over by Ryan Walker, but he still found himself thrust into a high-leverage spot in his first Major League outing since Aug. 8.

After the Mariners pulled within one on Randy Arozarena’s RBI force out in the seventh, Doval was brought in to face Jorge Polanco with runners on the corners and two outs. Doval allowed Arozarena to easily steal second and then fell behind, 3-0, before manager Bob Melvin opted to intentionally walk Polanco to load the bases. Still, Doval managed to preserve the Giants’ one-run lead by coaxing an inning-ending groundout from Mitch Haniger.

Doval returned to the mound for the eighth and struck out two over a clean inning to cap his four-out appearance and serve as a bridge to Walker, who worked a scoreless ninth to close out the win for San Francisco.

“I put him in a tough spot,” Melvin said of Doval. “Once he got through it and as the next inning went along, you started to see his really good stuff. It was great to see him be able to do something like that. It should do a world of good for his confidence. And obviously, it was huge for our team to pitch in a little bit different role.”
