Giants top prospects Arroyo, Beede sent to minors

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. - Infielder Christian Arroyo knows how to make an exit.

Told in the morning he would be reassigned to minor-league camp, Arroyo waved goodbye loudly in the ninth inning of Sunday's 6-4 loss to the Brewers. He blasted the only pitch he saw in the game for a no-doubt, opposite-field homer against right-hander Tyler Cravy.

"Hopefully I left people here with a smile on their face," Arroyo said as he packed for Indian School Park, where he will prepare for his season, mostly likely at Triple-A Sacramento.

Arroyo is the Giants' top hitting prospect.
