Giants vs. Rockies lineups: Mac Williamson makes his return batting sixth

Share

Welcome back, Mac. 

The Giants called up outfielder Mac Williamson from Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday while making a flurry of roster moves. Manager Bruce Bochy is giving the slugger at-bats right away against the Rockies. 

Williamson is starting in left field and batting sixth for the Giants. He's been red-hot in Triple-A and will look to keep the mojo at Coors Field. 

Before being called up, Williamson was batting .378 with nine home runs for the River Cats. He crushed three over the wall on Monday night in Sacramento, including one that went an estimated 511 feet

But at Coors Field, Bumgarner is just 5-6 with a 4.32 ERA.
