Giants ride Posey, Slater to potent win
The Giants relived some of their past Sunday. One of their former farmhands, Nik Turley, made his major-league debut on the mound for the Twins. Chris Heston, who threw a no-hitter for San Francisco two years ago, relieved him.
The Giants can only hope they also saw their future in the team in the other dugout. The Twins have youth, athleticism and power - everything the Giants need to discover anew in the years go come. How the Giants there will be their predominant story this summer and winter.
The story of Sunday's game, a 13-8 comeback victory against the Twins, revolves around a player who threads through the Giants' past, present and future.
