Red Sox get Giants 3B Eduardo Nunez for 2 pitching prospects Red Sox get Giants 3B Eduardo Nunez for 2 pitching prospects It's exciting," Nunez said while standing outside of manager Bruce Bochy's office. "You're going to go [play] for a championship. That's why we're here. That's the focus right now." Nunez, 30 started at third base, hit a two-run double and scored twice before he was removed for a pinch hitter in the fifth inning. The infielder, who was hit by a pitch on the left elbow earlier in the game, was shown on television shaking hands with teammates in the Giants' clubhouse. Nunez had been on a tear for the Giants. His .348 average is the fourth highest in the majors since June 1 (minimum 100 plate appearances). He went 9-for-16 (.563) in his final four games with San Francisco.
