Giants’ Romo strikes out a special ‘beer batter,’ plus notes aplenty, Saturday lineups

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — I awoke Saturday morning to Tweets that said Sergio Romo, on a rehab assignment with Class A San Jose, struck out fellow rehabber Yasiel Puig — who was the beer batter!

If you’re a Giants fan, it doesn’t get better than that, does it?

I hope to find out how long this Romo assignment is expected to be. You might remember that he was a couple days from rejoining the Giants during his last one and had a setback with his elbow.

Also in Friday night’s game, a 2-1 Rancho Cucamonga victory, Dodgers pitcher Hyun-Jin Ryu pitched four shutout innings.
