Notes
No Brandons: Brandon Belt and Brandon Crawford are out of the lineup due to minor ailments for very different things.
Lineup change for Giants: Brandon Belt has left side tightness and LaMonte Wade Jr. will start at first base. Steven Duggar now in CF.

Having side effects from covid vaccine. @sfgiants
Vaccine threshold: As of today, the Giants have met the 85% vaccination threshold that will allow them to loosen restrictions. So if you hear the sound of pool balls in the clubhouse or see even fewer masks in the dugout, that’s why.
Enjoy the baseball, friends.
