What's Buzzing
Susan Slusser
Giants’ Carson Whisenhunt shows moxie in victory over Astros - and he makes good use of his slider and especially his sinker, showing he's more than a two-pitch pitcher, huge for his potential future as a starter; plus youngsters lead the way: https://t.co/hOc3bpkoYF
Chronicle Astros
Houston couldn't cash in on a couple of prime opportunities early as the Astros lost for the fifth time in their past eight games. https://t.co/QOsaWVdWTo
Justice delos Santos
Bryce Eldridge on Carson Whisenhunt:
"He's a great pitcher. He always has been. I know he's been frustrated with his last few outings. He said to me today, "How about both of us stop being 'B' words." He shoves, and I go deep."
Justice delos Santos
Giants win, 4-1.
Bryce Eldridge hit his 12th homer. Carson Whisenhunt overcame early command issues and allowed one run over 5 2/3 innings. Lots of contributions.
They're 50-70.
Brian McTaggart
Hunter Brown on his lack of swing and miss today (6): "My chase is down and not getting as many whiffs. If you want to ask them and come back to me and see what their approach was, I would love to have that info, too. I mean, I can't tell you. You go from having a bunch of whiffs
Brian McTaggart
Joe Espada on the early chances: "We had them against the ropes. We couldn't lay that knock-out punch. We drove his pitch count to 30-something in that first inning and didn't come out with much. Just opportunities. We couldn't really come through."
