ANAHEIM–For a Giants lineup that’s scored one run or fewer in 10 of its 18 games, perhaps only a divine intervention can spark a struggling offense.
A new outfielder flew down from above –technically Salt Lake City– on Friday, but don’t count on that player single-handedly willing the Giants to the promised land.
“I am definitely not a savior,” Mac Williamson said.
Williamson doesn’t fancy himself as the solution to the Giants’ problems, but there’s no escaping the expectations he set with a torrid spring and a dominant start to his season in Triple-A.
With six home runs and 16 RBIs, Williamson forced himself back into the Giants’ plans at the Major League level and caught the attention of a manager who’s eager to watch him swing the bat.
