Giants’ Andrew McCutchen sits with a sore knee

SAN FRANCISCO — Andrew McCutchen was out of the starting lineup with a sore knee for the Giants Sunday, with Bruce Bochy reshuffling his lineup as a result.

McCutchen was injured sliding into second base late in the Giants’ 9-4 win over the Colorado Rockies, but it’s not believed to be serious.

“He’s available to pinch hit,” Bochy said before the Giants concluded a four-game series with the Rockies at AT&T Park. “Probably could push him a little bit, but we’ll give him the day off, with the day off, give him a couple of days.”

The Giants are off Monday and then begin an eight-game road trip in Houston Tuesday with a two-game series.
