PHOENIX (AP) — Corbin Burnes showed his 2021 Cy Young Award-winning stuff to the San Francisco Giants on Monday.

He hasn’t been named the opening day starter yet by manager Craig Counsell, but the fourth-year veteran is lined up to pitch one more Cactus League game and could get the ball for the Brewers’ opener April 7 against the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field.
