Outfielder Mike Yastrzemski is back in the resurgent Giants’ lineup today, after missing the past nine games with an oblique strain.
Yastrzemski will bat eighth in the 4:20 p.m. (PT) series opener at Atlanta, where the Giants will play three games before heading to Cleveland for a three-game set.
The Giants went 5-4 in Yastrzemski’s absence, including wins in their first 3-of-4 games against the Chicago Cubs before taking 2-of-3 from the first-place Los Angeles Dodgers to cap a homestand.
