Giants 1B Brandon Belt had a big night at the plate in the 9-7 win over the Rangers. The Texas-native went 2 for 4 with a pair of solo home runs in the extra-innings victory.
Belt bookended the Giants' scoring on Saturday. He got the Giants on the board with a solo home run in the third inning, cutting the Rangers' lead to one. Then, after the Giants took a 9-8 lead in the 11th, he delivered his second solo dinger of the night, giving him 12 homers on the year.
Both of Belt's home runs on Saturday came off of left-handers--he had not homered off of a southpaw this season prior to Saturday.
After Saturday's performance, Belt is batting .306 with three home runs and nine home runs over his past 10 games.
