Luis Matos may have found his power his been missing in Sacramento, hitting a home run in his second straight game. Mason Black had his best start in Richmond. And Guillermo Williamson had a big game in the AZL.

Carson Whisenhunt made his Double-A debut, and it was more of the same that he had been handing out all season. And the Giants 2021 1st round pick Will Bednar made his first appearance in a game in nearly a year, which is good news for the Giants. And in a shortened day, Luis Matos hit his second home run in Sacramento.

Reggie Crawford dealt with his first struggles on the mound in San Jose on a day of much newsworthy but maybe small items. The two latest top international signees got their first hits in the rookie leagues, Turner Hill stole three bases, Vaun Brown was healthy, and Cuban signee Ubert Mejias made his pro debut.

I won’t lie…today sucked if you liked offense in the Giants farm system, but Grant McCray had a nice day with a triple and a home run. But there are some encouraging pitching performances and one free agent debut to check out, at least. So read? Please?

Vaun Brown left Saturday’s game early, a couple of innings after getting hit by a pitch, leading to concerns about him losing more time this season to injury. Meanwhile, a huge bullpen meltdown hurts Sacramento, and Victor Bericoto moves into a tie for the team lead in home runs.

It was Kyle Harrison day in Sacramento, but David Villar stole the show with a big day at the plate. Plus, Vaun Brown continues to hit well in Double-A as he gets up to speed.

1st round pick Reggie Crawford made his second pro start, and he continues to dominate. And in Sacramento was powered by two hitters who helped dominate: Luis Matos and Jacob Nottingham each had four hits and one home run.

Carson Whisenhunt went back on a tear after his weakest game of the year, and is looking as strong as ever as one of the Giants top pitching prospects. Meanwhile, there were quite a few debuts (and one second game) across the system that left an impact on their games.

It was a mixed day (or two) for the Giants farm, but Keaton Winn helped lead Sacramento’s pitching staff for one of its best days of the season. Plus, two big hitters had 0-for-2 days but still were getting on base.

It was Kyle Harrison day in Sacramento, and he didn’t give up any runs…but the news wasn’t perfect for him. And elsewhere in the system, both San Jose and Eugene had big innings, but only one of them used it to get a win.

The Giants 2022 1st Round Pick Reggie Crawford finally took the mound in his first pro game, and it appears to have been worth the wait. And in Sacramento, Tyler Fitzgerald’s double gave the River Cats a much-needed win.
