After the San Francisco Giants’ lumber opened up 13 runs against the Chicago Cubs in the first game of the double-header, Barry Zito must be keeping his fingers crossed that the team isn’t already out of bullets before the second half of the double dip.
Pablo Sandoval, Aubrey Huff and Cody Ross are the only players that started the first game that will start the second, with Cody moving over to left field. Andres Torres will lead off, Emmanuel Burriss will start at second, while Brandon Crawford will be at shortstop. Eli Whiteside will get his first start in the last five games due to leg soreness to catch Zito in his first big league start since the middle of April.
