A look at what’s happening all around the majors:
—
BUM IS BACK
Giants ace Madison Bumgarner returns to the mound for the first time since a dirt bike accident led to a sprained AC joint in his pitching shoulder and bruised ribs. The left-hander made four starts, going 0-3 with a 3.00 ERA, before crashing his bike during a day off in Colorado. He’ll face the Padres and right-hander Jhoulys Chacin (8-7, 4.32) in San Diego.
STAR QUALITY
On the second day back from the All-Star break, eight starting pitchers selected for the Midsummer Classic get their initial assignments of the second half.
