SF Giants probable pitchers & starting lineups vs. Cincinnati Reds, May 12
Harrison has quietly had a solid start to the year. He is coming off of the best outing of his young career, recording seven scoreless innings against the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field. Colorado's home ballpark can be a brutal experience for pitchers, but Harrison was up for the challenge.

Who it hot?
The Giants outfield defense had a rough night on Friday, but responded nicely on Saturday. Heliot Ramos recorded two outfield assists, whereas Mike Yastrzemski added one of his own in Saturday's 5-1 victory.
