Willy Adames drove in Luis Arraez with a double off the right-field wall during the bottom of the third inning in a Cactus League game against the Royals on Friday, March 20, 2026.
The hit came as the San Francisco Giants continue spring training preparations, with Arraez’s presence in the lineup drawing particular attention. Acquired during the offseason, Arraez is expected to be a key contributor to a Giants team aiming to contend in the National League, according to a recent report in the San Diego Union-Tribune. Tom Krasovic of the Union-Tribune noted Arraez brings not only a strong batting average but also a positive influence to the clubhouse.
The Giants are evaluating their roster as the regular season approaches. Around the Foghorn recently projected potential players for the Opening Day roster, though specific positions remain subject to change based on performance in spring training. The February 22nd game against the Chicago Cubs and the February 23rd game against the Oakland Athletics, provided early opportunities to assess player capabilities, according to game reports.
Adames’ double represents a positive sign for the Giants’ offense as they refine their lineup during the exhibition schedule. The team is looking for consistent offensive production throughout the batting order, and Arraez’s ability to get on base, coupled with Adames’ power, could be a significant combination.
