Jung Hoo Lee was among those in awe of the towering home run Giants shortstop Marco Luciano belted into left field during the fourth inning of San Francisco's 11-5 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks on Saturday at Scottsdale Stadium. With the game tied 4-4, Luciano stepped up to the plate with two outs and nobody on in the bottom of the fourth inning. While Luciano was at the plate, Lee was conducting an interview with NBC Sports Bay Area's Dave Flemming and Javier Lopez, which offered the perfect opportunity to capture his priceless reaction to his teammates' towering shot.

Jung Hoo Lee had a wholesome reaction to Marco Luciano's towering home run in the Giants' Cactus League finale on Saturday at Scottsdale Stadium.

Blake Snell said veteran pitcher Alex Cobb was a "big reason" he decided to sign with the Giants.

Bay Area sports radio tends to focus on the San Francisco 49ers and the Golden State Warriors most of the year... but this past week... baseball got a chance to shine. The week started off with news that Renel Brooks-Moon and the San Francisco Giants were parting ways after failing to agree on a contract. Although the split appears to be amicable, there are many Giants fans (and non-Giants fans... like me) who were very disappointed to hear this news. At least Giants fans received some good news that same morning when it was announced that last year's NL Cy Young Award winner signed with them.

When the Giants board their charter flight back to Bay Area following Saturday's spring finale, the team will look a little different than the past four years under manager Gabe Kapler. In addition to the $300 million-plus in free agents brought in this offseason, the Giants are reinstating a dress code for travel days that had been absent in the ultra-lax clubhouse run by Kapler. The shakeup carries a similar motive to other changes implemented by Melvin this spring, such as lining up on the field for the national anthem to reflect their readiness for first pitch.

(BCN) — After spending several weeks at spring training in Arizona, the San Francisco Giants are returning to Northern California for three final exhibition games starting Sunday before the start of the new Major League Baseball season.

J.D. Martinez cites Oracle Park as a reason he did not sign with the Giants in free agency.

For the New York Yankees, their first trip south of the border in more than 50 years probably means nothing beyond two exhibition games, but for many Mexican fans and the host team, Diablos Rojos, the visit of the most popular team in the country is a dream come true. The Yankees played in Mexico in 1968 when they split the two-game exhibition series in the extinct Parque Delta. Management from the Diablos Rojos said they hoped to get a chance to do it again after that, but it wasn't until Omar Minaya was hired as senior adviser for baseball operations with the Yankees that the games became a reality.

After spending several weeks at spring training in Arizona, the San Francisco Giants are returning to Northern California for three final exhibition games starting Sunday before the start of the new Major League Baseball season. The Giants will face off on Sunday evening against their Triple-A affiliate, the Sacramento River Cats, who will host the matchup at Sutter Health Park in West Sacramento.

Brett Wisely scored on pitcher Chase Watkins' errant pickoff throw and the San Francisco Giants completed a wild 13-12 win over the visiting Chicago Cubs in spring training action Friday in Scottsdale, Ariz. The Giants trailed 10-0 and 12-6 before coming all the way back to prevail in the split-squad game. Matt Chapman hit a solo home run in the sixth inning, and Trenton Brooks hit the game-tying RBI single in the eighth.

Always his harshest critic, Logan Webb expressed after his most recent start how much he'd like to see a zero in the runs column next to his name, even in a meaningless spring training box score. Ahead of the third Opening Day start of his career, Thursday in San Diego, Webb surrendered nine runs on nine hits, including a pair of home runs with the ball flying on an especially arid day in desert. Allowing the Cubs to bat around in the first, Webb was pulled before he could escape the inning and reentered to start the second.

For the past four seasons of San Francisco Giants baseball, one of the six statues around Oracle Park has been missing. Earlier this week, the Giants reinstalled the statue on the opposite side of McCovey Cove from Oracle Park, where it has been since it was first unveiled in 2003.

Signing a week before Opening Day, Blake Snell isn't expected to start for the San Francisco Giants until at least their second series of the season. When the team departs for their three exhibitions in Northern California, Snell will stay back in Arizona. After a bullpen session of about 30 pitches went well Thursday, Snell is scheduled to pitch in an intrasquad game Sunday, manager Bob Melvin said. “We sat down with him today,” Melvin said.
