J.D. Davis Returning For Crucial Contest Wednesday
1 year agoSan Francisco Giants third baseman J.D. Davis is back in the starting lineup for a crucial game Wednesday afternoon versus the Arizona Diamondbacks and right-hander Merrill Kelly. The Giants sit three games back of the final Wild Card spot in the National League while the D-backs currently occupy the second Wild Card spot in the senior circuit. The 30-year-old Davis didn't start Tuesday's 8-4 loss but did go hitless in a pinch-hitting appearance. He enters Wednesday's contest hitting .252 with 18 home runs, one stolen base, and a .750 OPS across 137 appearances on the season. He has a tough matchup on tap against Kelly who sports a healthy 3.45 ERA across his 27 starts on the campaign.
