Prospect Beede buys into Giants’ concept of economy of pitches Tyler Beede, the Giants’ first-round draft pick in June out of Vanderbilt, provided insight into the organizational pitching philosophy after his scoreless inning in Saturday’s Futures Game at Scottsdale Stadium. Beede was a power guy in college who blew hitters away with a straight, four-seam fastball, but not anymore. The Giants asked him to shelve the four-seamer and replace it with a sinker and a cut fastball hoping for quicker outs, especially on the ground. In other words, strikeouts take a back seat to efficiency. Beede still has a four-seamer, which he will throw higher in the zone as a strikeout pitch when he is ahead, the way Madison Bumgarner does. Beede’s adrenaline was racing, and he talked a mile a minute after an inning in which he retired Brandon Belt on a liner to right, allowed a Brandon Crawford single and Hector Sanchez walk, then got Joaquin Arias and Gary Brown to pop out. On the plus side, Sanchez threw out potential base thieves in successive innings.
