Wilmer Flores Has Pinch-Hit Homer Tuesday
4 years agoSan Francisco Giants second baseman Wilmer Flores hit a pinch-hit, three-run home run to help lead the Giants to a 10-7 win over the Phillies on Tuesday. Flores came up to bat for reliever Jose Alvarez, and crushed a three-run shot to cap off a six-run eighth inning as the Giants came from behind for the victory. When he gets the playing time Flores has shown some pop, hitting 12 home runs in 55 games last year, but for now there just isn't much playing time to be found for Flores. If someone in the Giants infield goes down with an injury, Flores could have some decent value as a short-term fill-in.
