Barry Zito was completing a wildly successful eight-year contract with the San Francisco Giants.
America was falling in love with a prehistoric family called The Croods and an up-and-coming rapper from the Pacific Northwest named Macklemore. Anthony Weiner was running for mayor and Toronto mayor Rob Ford (R. I.

That streak continued Wednesday as the Giants shut out the Phillies for the second game in a row. Tyler Mahle and four relievers combined on a four-hit shutout, with Matt Gage getting the first win of his career after Rafael Devers got the Giants on the board with a three-run home run in the 6th inning.
