It didn’t take long for the San Francisco Giants to get on the scoreboard Monday night against John Lackey.
Joe Panik hit a leadoff home run to give the Giants the 1-0 lead in the top of the first. The Giants could have scored more runs but Chicago’s defense shut that door.
Shortstop Addison Russell made a great diving play to throw out Christian Arroyo for the first out:

Then Albert Almora Jr. one-upped him with a spectacular catch in centerfield to rob Brandon Belt:

Yeah, the Cubs future defensively is bright with these two young stars playing.
