The Cincinnati Reds, on a four-game home winning streak, host the San Francisco GiantsMAY 29, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Swats long ball Saturday Longoria went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Reds.
Impact Longoria's sixth-inning blast got the Giants within a run, but that was as close as they got. After a slow start to the season following a finger injury that cost him a month to begin the year, he's started to pick it up at the plate with hits in five straight games. Longoria is 7-for-18 (.389 in that span). The third baseman owns a .239/.271/.478 slash line with three homers, seven RBI, four runs scored and two doubles in 48 plate appearances.

Impact Longoria returned to the lineup after sitting out Tuesday due to a shoulder issue.

Sitting with shoulder issue Longoria is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mets after jamming his left shoulder on an attempted dive Monday, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact Longoria may be available off the bench, which indicates the injury isn't a serious concern. The 36-year-old could also be held out of the lineup for Wednesday's series finale if the Giants want to express additional caution, as it would allow the veteran an extra two days to recover with a scheduled day off to follow Thursday.

Resting Saturday Longoria will sit Saturday against the Padres, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
Impact Longoria made his season debut last Wednesday after missing the start of the season due to finger surgery. He's the clear primary third baseman in San Francisco, but he's also getting frequent days off, as he'll sit here for the third time in nine games since his return to action. Tommy La Stella will start at the hot corner this time around.

On bench Tuesday Longoria is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against Colorado, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact Longoria has been back from the injured list for less than a week, so it's no surprise that the Giants don't want him starting on four consecutive days just yet. Wilmer Flores will be the third baseman Tuesday.

Returns from IL The Giants reinstated Longoria (finger) from the 10-day injured list Wednesday. He'll start at third base and bat third in the Giants' series finale with the Rockies, according to...
Impact San Francisco initially planned to have Longoria come off the IL ahead of Friday's series opener in St. Louis, but he'll make his season debut two days earlier than anticipated after his surgically repaired finger responded well to a recent five-game rehab assignment at Triple-A Sacramento. He should settle back in as the Giants' everyday third baseman, leaving Wilmer Flores (back) to vie for reps at designated hitter with Darin Ruf.
