http://0rz.tw/iW40T Belt sent to Triple-A to make room for Ross By Chris Haft / MLB.com | 04/20/11 5:15 PM ET DENVER -- The Giants optioned Brandon Belt to Triple-A Fresno with instructions for the first baseman to refine his hitting technique. Belt, who turned 23 on Wednesday, was dropped from the active Major League roster to accommodate outfielder Cody Ross, who officially left the 15-day disabled list. Ross started in right field and batted fifth in Wednesday's series finale against the Colorado Rockies. Belt entered Spring Training with the same sort of hype that accompanied 2010 Rookie of the Year Buster Posey's ascent to the Majors. Belt made the Opening Day lineup at first base after hitting .282 in 28 exhibition games, with three home runs and 13 RBIs -- which tied him for second on the team. But consistency eluded the 6-foot-5 Texan, who hit .192 in 17 games with the Giants. Belt said that he examined videos of himself and realized that a "timing issue" has been causing him to dip the barrel of the bat ever so slightly when he swings. "I'm fouling balls off, even if I'm getting to them in time," he said. "I'm confident I can fix it pretty soon." Belt relished his stint with the Giants, short as it was. "Even though it didn't go the way I wanted, it still was a lot of fun," Belt said. "It gave me an idea of what to expect when I get back here. And hopefully, I'll be back up here sooner than later." Cody Ross回来了 希望他本季能展现去年季後赛那样的身手 也希望Brandon Belt回3A磨练一下 练好再回来MLB好好展现火力吧!! Sandoval injured during BP, pulled from lineup DENVER -- A strained right triceps forced third baseman Pablo Sandoval to be scratched from the Giants' lineup for Wednesday's series finale against the Colorado Rockies. Sandoval had hit safely in 14 of 17 games, while building a team-high .328 batting average and belting five home runs -- matching Pat Burrell for the team lead. Sandoval's three-run homer on Tuesday propelled the Giants to a 6-3 victory. The severity of Sandoval's injury was not immediately determined. With Sandoval sidelined, Mark DeRosa moved from first base, where he was stationed in the original lineup, to third base. Aubrey Huff, who had the day off, was penciled into the vacancy at first. 天啊 希望熊猫没事... 巨人队打线很需要他 QQ Giants to go with four-man rotation for now DENVER -- Seizing upon Thursday's scheduled off-day, the Giants will temporarily employ a four-man starting rotation and keep Ryan Vogelsong in the bullpen. Vogelsong, who's replacing the injured Barry Zito in the rotation, would have been scheduled to start on Friday had the Giants stayed with their five-man contingent. Instead, Madison Bumgarner, Tim Lincecum and Jonathan Sanchez will pitch Friday through Sunday, respectively, against the Atlanta Braves at San Francisco's AT&T Park. The Giants have another scheduled off-day on Monday, but manager Bruce Bochy indicated that he might slip Vogelsong into the rotation during the April 26-28 series at Pittsburgh. 4人轮值喔!! 感觉挺累人的 @@ Chris Haft is a reporter for MLB.com.
