SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- The first man to bat against San Francisco Giants ace Madison Bumgarner Sunday hit a wind-aided, opposite-field home run. Bumgarner was overpowering after that in his spring training debut against the Chicago Cubs, even if he was lacking some sharpness.
The 2014 World Series MVP got all five outs with strikeouts and allowed two earned runs on four hits in 1u2154 innings in the Cubs' 12-10 win over the Giants. He left the game with two runners on base and both scored, inflating his final line.
"Felt good physically, that's really all I'm looking for," Bumgarner said after his outing.
