4 years agoSan Francisco Giants shortstop Brandon Crawford is getting the day off on Sunday against Kyle Hendricks and the Chicago Cubs. It makes sense that Crawford should get the day off following Saturday's scary incident when he crashed into Evan Longoria in the infield while both players were going after an Anthony Rizzo grounder. Longoria took the brunt of the damage and had to exit the game with shoulder and collarbone issues. Crawford remained in the game on Saturday but manager Gabe Kapler is giving him a day of rest on Sunday. Mauricio Dubon is starting at shortstop and batting eighth.--Jon Mathisen - RotoBaller
