The Giants sent players to two teams in the Mexican Pacific League for the 2008 season, Hermosillo and Mexicali. Those two teams met in the second game of the season and only one Giant saw action. Todd Jennings' regular season was cut short by a leg injury so he will need a strong showing in the winter league. He began the campaign with a base hit Sunday night.

Hermosillo rallied twice, first to draw within a run of the lead and then to go ahead in the seventh inning. Erubiel Durazo put three runs on the board in the fourth inning with his first home run of the season.

Both teams have Monday off. Mexicali faces Mochis and Hermosillo takes on Guasave Tuesday.

Venezuelan League begins Tuesday
Dominican League begins Wednesday. A note about the Dominican League: Angel Villalona is listed on the Toros del Este roster. Osiris Matos and Kelvin Pichardo are also listed on the roster, though. Matos is in the AFL and Pichardo is in the HWB. I'll keep my eyes open to confirm if AnVil is playing this winter.
Puerto Rican League begins 11/06, returning for 2008 after ceasing operations in the 2007 season
