The Giants optioned infielder Matthew Duffy to the minors Thursday, though it is not yet clear if he is going back to Double-A Richmond, or if his time in the majors earned him a promotion to Triple-A Fresno.
Duffy appeared in three games for the Giants, going 1 for 10 with one run driven in and three strikeouts. Duffy was hitting .332/.398/.444 in 367 at-bats for Richmond prior to getting the call.
