The Belt and Pill conundrum

Brett Pill is a Giant once again. That news may sound good to Pill fans everywhere, but it’s tough to hear for Giants first baseman Brandon Belt. Pill has been one of the most productive prospects in the minors with his .341 batting average and team-leading nine home runs and 47 RBIs. He has only played in 32 games, but he has been oven an opportunity to spark up the debate: between...

Brandon Belt Finally Belting It

In the fourth inning of Tuesday’s game against the Toronto Blue Jays, Giants first baseman Brandon Belt stepped to the plate with his team down 6-1. Squaring off against reigning National League Cy Young Award winner and knuckleball extraordinaire R.A. Dickey, Belt looked to spark his team to a rally from its early deficit. He certainly did his part. On a 2-2 pitch, Belt smacked...

Brandon Belt discusses swing mechanics with Keith Law

Brandon Belt is one of my favorite Giants players. Keith Law is one of my favorite baseball writers. Having said that, when I saw that they sat down for a lunch interview to discuss Belt's swing mechanics it made me very excited to read what would come of the meeting. I was not disappointed. The full interview requires ESPN Insider so I will only include a fewÂ...

SF Giants Rumors: Another Comeback, Lincecum Day Win, That’s What’s Up, Awkward Belt

Credit: Steven Robles – SF Giants Rumors Another game, another magical comeback for the San Francisco Giants! This time it was a 3-run homer by Brandon Belt in the top of the 8th inning to give the Giants a 7-6 lead. They then tacked on 2 more runs in the 9th, and Sergio Romo secured the victory by picking up his 11th save of the season. Lincecum Day = Win The Freak, Tim Lincecum...

Giants Rally Late on Belt’s Homer to Defeat Diamondbacks 9-6

The Giants are certainly a confusing team in 2013, but wins are wins. Brandon Belt was the hero of Tuesday evening, launching an eighth inning homerun to turn the tables on the Diamondbacks, granting the Giants a 9-6 win. A shaky start by Tim Lincecum will surely raise more doubts about his future in San Francisco, but at least the bats are alive and well for the Black and Orange...

SF Giants Rumors: Losing Streak Ends, Belt Show, Bochy Frustration, Great Pandino, Etc.

The Belt Show Brandon Belt hit a solo homer in the 2nd inning to put the Giants up 3-0, but that lead didn’t last long as the D-Backs put up 4 runs in the 4th inning. The Giants...

Brandon Belt Belts First Career Walk-off for San Francisco Giants

The Giants have long been sold on the talents of their young first baseman, Brandon Belt, and have thus far refused to include him in any trade discussions, even when prompted by the Seattle Mariners last year at the deadline. This season, Belt was looking to build off a year where he hit .275 and was clearly improving his swing and overall approach at the plate. Manager Bruce...

Brandon Belt tells manager he plans to hit for cycle, then exceeds it

As if the San Francisco Giants needed any more help (okay, every team does), Brandon Belt has had a Spring to inject even more expectation in the World Series Champions.  Belt has been tearing it up in Scottsdale, batting .469 with 6 Home Runs and 16 RBI in a mere 57 at bats.  He hit 7 HR all of 2012 in 400+ at bats.  Belt was somewhat rushed to the majors in 2011 after two abbreviated...
