Brandon Belt's two homers not enough as Giants lose
San Francisco Giants first baseman Brandon Belt crushed a pair of home runs, including his first career grand slam on Friday, but it wasn't enough to lead the Giants to victory over the San Diego Padres.
Belt's grand slam in the sixth inning put his club up 5-4, but the lead was short-lived as the Padres scored three runs of their own in the seventh. Belt finished the game 2-for-4 with two runs scored and five RBI's. He now has three home runs and seven RBI's for the season.
NumberFire's algorithms project Belt for 20 home runs, 74 RBI's, 78 runs scored, and a .271 batting average in 602 plate appearances the rest of the season.
