SAN FRANCISCO -- It wasn't long ago, just a couple of weeks, that Bruce Bochy was regularly answering questions about his outfield defense, which he felt was perhaps the best he had experienced in San Francisco. Friday's lineup was a different story, as the Giants opted for power in the corners.
With Kevin Pillar in need of a day off, Bochy moved Mac Williamson from left field to right and stuck Tyler Austin in left for the fourth time. On paper it made a ton of sense. Austin hit two homers Thursday and Williamson hit a three-run bomb on Tuesday.
