SAN FRANCISCO -- Every night, win or lose, the Giants' starting pitcher talks to reporters in front of a small wall covered with team logos. It's been a while since Shaun Anderson was called up there, and he smiled as reporters and cameras gathered late Tuesday night.
"Funny to be back up here," Anderson said.
You rarely find yourself surrounded by the media when you're pitching the sixth inning. But Anderson, a starter for much of the season, is back in the spotlight after working his way up in the bullpen pecking order. On Tuesday night he was the closer, and that might be the case for a bit longer.
