Giants Name Maldonado Opening Game Starter
Giants manager Roger Craig will start Candy Maldonado in right field for the opening World Series game against the Athletics in Oakland. Maldonado, who batted .217 with nine homers, delivered a critical walk in the pennant rally and earned his spot after a solid, if uneven, season. Kevin Mitchell faced questions over missing a World Series workout but plans to apologize to teammates. Craig supported the move, while Mitchell acknowledged a stiff fine and said the case is closed.
