Giants pitcher Jeff Samardzija takes his hitting seriously. I got you.’ He does have one of the best moves I’ve seen…. There’s the chance of (injuring) the thigh or knee there.

“The way it broke off, he looked like Herman Munster”.
The San Francisco Giants pitcher had his best start of the season against the Cincinnati Reds, going eight innings, allowing one run on three hits and striking out nine. Suarez went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts on Tuesday, while Phillips posted one hit in four tries.
Indians 4, Tigers 0: Corey Kluber pitched a five-hit shutout, and Cleveland used a four-run fourth inning to defeat Detroit for the fifth straight time this season.
“I didn’t have too many good at-bats out there”, said Samardzija, who said he felt no pain from the bat’s impact. It is what it is. Belt went 1-for-3 in Tuesday’s game. If Reds relievers give up a run today, it ll be the 21st consecutive game in which they ve done so.
In the top of eighth inning of the Giants’ game against the Cincinnati Reds, Samardzija came to bat with two outs and two runners on.
The record-breaking run scored in the eighth.
Matt Adams snapped a 3-3 deadlock with a leadoff blast to left-center field off Jeremy Hellickson (2-2), followed by a 417-foot clout from Aledmys Diaz to the third deck in left field.
“I like him in that position for run production, not for being disappointed with him in the two-hole”, Reds manager Bryan Price explained, via Cincinnati Reds. “There’s no wiggle room for the bullpen to make a mistake”. Belt, whose risks on the bases have proved unproductive this season, was thrown out trying to stretch his single into a double and the Giants challenged the tag play to no avail.
“It was tough in the second inning”. He battled and ended up giving us some needed innings.
Marlins 4, Diamondbacks 3: Giancarlo Stanton homered and drove in two runs for Miami.
The Reds erased the three-run lead that Cueto had helped to provide in the second inning.
In his last outing, Peavy was rocked for six runs in only two-plus innings last Friday by the Mets. For the pitcher who, in six starts, already has a career-high five RBIs this season, it was a frustrating moment.
Amazingly, the 46 pitches were not the most Cueto had thrown in an inning. Zaci Cozart has provided 26 hits and 14 runs, while Eugenio Suarez has five homers with 15 RBI among his 25 hits.

“Ever since I’ve been here, he’s always told me he could pick me off from first”, Hamilton said. There’s a couple of pitches I’d like to get back. At the end of the day, I was able to use my secondary pitches to get guys out and get the game in my favor. “I’ve just been fine-tuning to get it back where it was”.
