Tyler Fitzgerald SS- 2 for 5, 2B.  BA= .211.
Kyle Harrison LHP- 5 IP, 5 H, 1 R, 2 BB, 6 K's.  ERA= 2.83.

Kyle Harrison continues to be the biggest and best story of the season for the Giants organization.

  1. Read an interesting article where former SF Giants 1st baseman and current Florida Southern Baseball coach Lance Niekto raved about Vaun Brown who played for him. He said Brown took his game to the next level after the pandemic wiped out the 2020 college baseball season, by a lot of hard work, to his credit He looks like he's spent time in the gym, so Kap will like that. Wasn't he the guy who came to oracle Park and hit a opposite field home run in batting practice against Alex Cobb? I might be wrong.
