Eduardo Nuñez confesses to not hustling

Madison Bumgarner was not the only Giant to ’fess up this week.

Eduardo Nuñez, now a super-utility player with Christian Arroyo’s arrival, said Tuesday that he was wrong for not running out some groundballs, one of which might have cost the Giants a chance to beat the Rockies.

Nuñez also said he is still somewhat uncomfortable playing left field, but he expects that feeling to improve and he was happy to step aside for Arroyo.

In the April 13 opener of a four-game home series against the Rockies, who were leading 2-0, Nuñez led off the fifth inning with a one-hopper to third baseman Nolan Arenado, who was playing in.
