WASHINGTON D.C. — The Giants announced on Friday afternoon that left-hander Kyle Harrison will start on Saturday in place of Justin Verlander, who was placed on the 15-day injured list (retroactive to May 19) on Thursday with a right pec strain.
Additionally, San Francisco recalled right-hander Tristan Beck from Triple-A Sacramento to take Verlander’s place on the active roster.
Harrison, 23, began the season with Triple-A Sacramento, posting a 3.46 ERA over six starts with 38 strikeouts. The Giants recalled Harrison in early May to serve as a reliever, a role he’d never pitched in at the major-league level. The left-hander has made four relief appearances, allowing two runs over 5 1/3 innings with seven strikeouts.
