Tugboat’s Debut: Solid Start, Room to Grow | San Francisco Giants News

Matt Wilkinson, aka “Tugboat,” made his Giants home debut with six solid innings against the Diamondbacks, though the team fell 7-1. He praised his first six frames and all four pitches working, even snagging a run — but admitted he got “sped up” later and failed to adjust, costing him. The crowd’s support was “awesome,” and he stressed how vital fan energy is. His game plan? Attack the zone, keep hitters off-balance, and give his team a shot. While he wasn’t fully in the zone early, his command improved. Amid pitching changes from injuries, the focus remains: attack the zone and win. The Giants are eager to build on Wilkinson’s positives as they push forward. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
