San Francisco lost that game 3-2.\n\nBefore Wednesday&#8217;s loss to Arizona, the Giants had accumulated 18 outs on the bases, one of the highest figures in Major League Baseball this season. In addition, they had been retired seven times at the plate.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>I think some of those things need to be gone over more, both mentally and physically, with repetitions.<\/p><cite>Tony Vitello<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nBorg was part of the Giants organization for more than two decades. He signed as an international free agent in the Dominican Republic in 2004 and, after his playing career in 2008, began an extensive career in development and training within the club&#8217;s minor league system.\n\nThe Dominican had been integrated into the Major League coaching staff this season, after receiving the support of general manager Zack Minasian and manager Vitello.\n\nDuring spring training, Borg described himself as an aggressive third-base coach, a characteristic that generated questions amid the team&#8217;s problems.\n\nNow, the Giants will seek to reorganize their technical structure as they try to correct the flaws that have affected their performance this season.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>San Francisco Giants Reassign H\u00e9ctor Borg SAN FRANCISCO \u2013 The San Francisco Giants announced this Friday the reassignment of Dominican H\u00e9ctor Borg within their player development department, ending his time as the third base coach of the Major League team.
