In his first game action, Schierholtz showed off a nice swing, including his first home run as a Phillie. http://phillies.scout.com/2/1207741.html 2047 The Sports Xchange http://phillies.scout.com/2/1207741.html Thu, 02 Aug 2012 19:53:00 GMT 0 309 Philadelphia phillies Young prospect Tommy Joseph and bubble player Gregor Blanco were key in a late-inning comeback victory for the Giants Wednesday afternoon. Final Score: Giants 8, Rockies 6. http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/1165567.html 2047 Evan Stitt http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/1165567.html Thu, 08 Mar 2012 13:25:00 GMT 0 316 San Francisco sfgiants Good day for the G-Men Tuesday. Riding strong offensive performances from Melky Cabrera and Brett Pill, the Giants beat the Dodgers 8-4. http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/1165319.html 2047 Evan Stitt http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/1165319.html Wed, 07 Mar 2012 20:01:00 GMT 0 316 San Francisco sfgiants Third baseman Pablo Sandoval showed the Giants last year that he's serious about his conditioning. The Giants, in turn, showed Sandoval on Jan. 17 that they're serious about him. http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/1150492.html 2047 TheSportsXchange http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/1150492.html Fri, 20 Jan 2012 16:48:00 GMT 0 316 San Francisco sfgiants Just $4.5 million separates the Giants and star pitcher Tim Lincecum for a new contract for 2012. In baseball terms, that's a small amount -- but it's enough that Lincecum could go before an arbitrator to decide his salary. http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/1149775.html 2047 TheSportsXchange http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/1149775.html Wed, 18 Jan 2012 14:58:00 GMT 0 316 San Francisco sfgiants With the World Series underway, the Giants need to put 2011 behind them and start working toward reclaiming a World Series title in 2012. In part one of a seven-part series, GiantsPipeline takes a look at each position in the Giants lineup -- with an eye to where the farm system can help the big club improve. Today, a look at catcher -- and whether Buster Posey can return to 2010 form. http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/1118920.html 2047 Evan Scott http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/1118920.html Mon, 24 Oct 2011 16:01:00 GMT 0 316 San Francisco sfgiants The Giants took a huge step backward from their World Series title. Old age and hitting deficiencies caught up with them, and their anemic offense wasted a bunch of pitching gems. The goal is to rebuild the offense so all that solid work from the rotation and bullpen isn't wasted again. http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/1120538.html 2047 TheSportsXchange http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/1120538.html Sun, 23 Oct 2011 17:07:00 GMT 0 316 San Francisco sfgiants In Part IV of our series on the top prospects of the San Francisco Giants, Richard examines the organization's top outfielders. Brian Sabean hopes to find a youngster who can match the apparent success of left fielder Fred Lewis. http://diamondbacks.scout.com/2/790972.html 2047 Richard Van Zandt http://diamondbacks.scout.com/2/790972.html Mon, 15 Sep 2008 23:29:00 GMT 1 247 Arizona diamondbacks The young guys looked great as Angel Villalona, Nick Noonan and Clayton Tanner all played big roles in victories Sunday, but the older guys had plenty to say too. Travis Ishikawa, Nate Schierholtz and Jesse Foppert all pitched in as well. http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/746225.html 2047 David Jay http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/746225.html Mon, 14 Apr 2008 12:25:00 GMT 0 316 San Francisco sfgiants The Giants have made their first major acquisition of the post-Barry Bonds era and it’s... Aaron Rowand? Well, I guess you really can’t teach an old dog new tricks. http://diamondbacks.scout.com/2/711687.html 2047 Richard Van Zandt http://diamondbacks.scout.com/2/711687.html Fri, 14 Dec 2007 21:58:00 GMT 0 247 Arizona diamondbacks The season is down to its final three weeks, and while the San Diego Padres and Arizona Diamondbacks continue to battle nose to nose for the NL West Division Title, the San Francisco Giants are one of six teams in a reverse race to avoid recording the worst record in the National League. http://diamondbacks.scout.com/2/678304.html 2047 Richard Van Zandt http://diamondbacks.scout.com/2/678304.html Tue, 11 Sep 2007 06:12:00 GMT 0 247 Arizona diamondbacks A day after having its winning streak snapped, Fresno scores three in the eighth to get back in the win column. Augusta comes from behind, but the ‘pen falters late and the winning streak comes to an end. Connecticut walks off with a victory, and San Jose gets a solid pitching performance and some timely hitting. Just Another action-packed Day in the Minors! http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/649473.html 2047 Erik Egan http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/649473.html Wed, 06 Jun 2007 16:14:00 GMT 0 316 San Francisco sfgiants The top spot in the rankings remains safe, but one has to wonder if it'll come to that player being called up soon. Plus, with the removal of Armando Benitez, might a couple of relievers that have been mainstays in the rankings be possible call-ups with a new spot available? http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/648403.html 2047 Kevin J. Cunningham http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/648403.html Fri, 01 Jun 2007 16:00:00 GMT 0 316 San Francisco sfgiants A top young hurler has a rare bad outing for Augusta, but still manages to get a win thanks to an offensive outburst. Fresno falls behind early, and then battles back to get the tying run to second with one out in the ninth, only to fall short at the end. San Jose gets a day off before a CAL League showdown. Connecticut also gets a break. Just Another offensive Day in the Minors! http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/645799.html 2047 Erik Egan http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/645799.html Tue, 22 May 2007 04:28:00 GMT 0 316 San Francisco sfgiants Forget power outages, the system has been having offensive outages this past week. With that, there's an opening for pitchers to step up. Did anyone? You know there's a few who did. http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/645049.html 2047 Kevin J. Cunningham http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/645049.html Fri, 18 May 2007 23:41:00 GMT 1 316 San Francisco sfgiants Shoddy defense and a bullpen implosion for the second straight day lead to another ugly loss for Augusta. Timely defensive miscues by the opposition and stout pitching propel Connecticut to victory. Ray gets rocked in San Jose, and Fresno splits a twin-bill. Just Another up-and-down Day in the Minors! http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/644332.html 2047 Erik Egan http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/644332.html Wed, 16 May 2007 07:18:00 GMT 0 316 San Francisco sfgiants The starting pitchers had no luck except for San Jose. Neither did the bullpens, for that matter. It correlates to three losses in the system Sunday, with San Jose getting the only win. Runners left on base came back to haunt a few of these teams. Augusta is losing ground after that amazing start. What’s wrong here? It’s Just Another Day in the Minors! http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/643739.html 2047 Chris Martinez http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/643739.html Mon, 14 May 2007 04:52:00 GMT 0 316 San Francisco sfgiants Throughout the system, pitching staffs underwent some changes. Changes in roles, returns from injury, and, for now, it seems like they're working. The winning teams are still winning, and Connecticut... well, um, they're still playing. Just Another Day in the Minors! http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/642707.html 2047 Kevin J. Cunningham http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/642707.html Wed, 09 May 2007 15:37:00 GMT 0 316 San Francisco sfgiants While two first-place teams rest, the Defenders and Grizzlies continued their quests to improve. The Grizzlies soldier on without Tim Lincecum, as a dramatic win is powered by home runs, including a walk-off. The Defenders don't do it in quite as majestic a way, but it's no less effective. Just Another day in the Minors! http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/642429.html 2047 Kevin J. Cunningham http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/642429.html Tue, 08 May 2007 09:15:00 GMT 0 316 San Francisco sfgiants Errors start bothering the farm system. It doesn't cost everyone a win, but it comes close. Plus, the hot hitters and cold pitchers might surprise you. It's Just Another Night in the Minors! http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/641876.html 2047 Kevin J. Cunningham http://sfgiants.scout.com/2/641876.html Sun, 06 May 2007 08:44:00 GMT 0 316 San Francisco sfgiants
