Escobar finished 3-for-4 with a solo home run, a walk and three RBI on Sunday against the Giants.
Although he tends to start more often against left-handed pitching, Escobar was in the starting lineup Sunday and produced off Giants starter Matt Cain. Nonetheless, the utility infielder will most likely continue in his reserve role and will not play every day. He's now slashing .248/.299/.410 in 127 plate appearances on the season.
