ST. LOUIS — San Francisco Giants rookie Christian Arroyo has already had some memorable big league moments. He added perhaps his biggest on Saturday night.
Arroyo’s two-run double broke a scoreless tie and the San Francisco Giants beat the St. Louis Cardinals 3-1 in 13 innings.
Arroyo’s double off the wall in left field scored Buster Posey and Brandon Crawford and came on the 12th pitch he saw from Cardinals reliever Kevin Siegrist (0-1). Posey, Crawford and Eduardo Nunez had singled to load the bases, giving the Giants their first runners in scoring position in the game.
