Brandon Belt B. Belt

Brandon Belt out of the Giants' lineup on Tuesday

The San Francisco Giants are giving first baseman Brandon Belt the night off on Tuesday.

What It Means:

The Giants are facing left-hander Clayton Kershaw on Tuesday and are looking to get as many right-handed bats into the lineup as possible. It doesn't help that Belt owns a .059 batting average against Kershaw in over 50 plate appearances. Buster Posey will play over at first base, while Nick Hundley joins the lineup and catches.

Belt is batting .247/.360/.507 with four home runs, nine RBI's and 11 runs scored in 86 plate appearances this season.
