On the SF Giants podcast with Morris:
#1 Giants first baseman Brandon Belt battled with Los Angeles Angels’ 21-year-old pitcher Jamie Barria for a 21 pitch at-bat the most pitches in an at-bat in MLB history.
#2 Belt also supplied home run help in Sunday’s contest, which represented his fourth consecutive home run in four games, which is the longest home run streak in his career.
#3 Giant starter Johnny Cueto had a quality start, picking up his second win of the season now at 2-0. He threw for six innings, giving up two hits, no runs, no walks, and seven strikeouts.
#4 Steven Duggar is working his way out of triple A affiliate Sacramento, hitting .298 for the month. Manager Bruce Bochy says that Duggar could be ready at anytime to help out.
#5 With leftfielder Hunter Pence out of the lineup with a thumb injury. The Giants, who brought up Mac Williamson this week, are expecting Williamson to provide some offense. Williamson got a hit against the Angels on Sunday.
