SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) — San Francisco catcher Buster Posey made his first spring hit count as he recovers from a serious leg injury, hitting a home run in the Giants’ 2-2, 10-inning tie with Cleveland on Wednesday.
Serving as the DH, Posey hit a 1-1 pitch from left-hander Tony Sipp just inside the foul pole in right field to tie the game in the sixth inning.
Giants closer Brian Wilson, coming back from an elbow injury that put him on the disabled list for the final six weeks of 2011, pitched a hitless, scoreless fifth inning.
