After back-to-back losses to the Oakland A’s following the All-Star break, the Giants will be hoping to add reinforcements to the lineup sooner, rather than later.
Following last night’s 11-inning walk-off win by the Oakland A’s, Giants manager Bruce Bochy is working in rest for much of his lineup. Bochy had to tap into his bullpen in the fifth inning following a nightmare, four-walk inning from starter Madison Bumgarner.
After initially being placed on the 10-day disabled list, Bruce Bochy said there’s a strong possibility that Joe Panik will need surgery due to spraining his left thumb on Friday night.
