Giants Pitcher Morris Tossed Out For Hitting Batter.

Believe it may have been payback for Vizquel being hit in the back last night.

Great.

With you being in the bay, could you give me your thoughts on Jack Taschner...the reason why I ask is because he's from my neck of the woods in southeastern Wisconsin. With that tough inning he had a couple of weeks ago against the Braves, we're all praying for him, although I hope that I won't have to much longer, as I hope that he recovers soon.

Please accept my apologies, but I am unfamiliar of what you speak. Please enlighten me.

Jack Taschner is a relief pitcher for the Giants. He's from my home state of Wisconsin, and I don't have much time to follow how his career is going, however, I have checked out the Giants website now and then. I'd like to get a local fan's perspective.

I do know that he had one very bad outing a couple weeks ago against the Atlanta Braves. I am pulling for him to be an important part of the Giants.

Sorry, the reason I couldn't comment is because he has had very little work as you can see from the stats below and is currently not listed on the Giants roster. May be in Fresno, the Giants AAA minor league farm club.

One of the many young arms SF is excited about in the farm system.
