SAN FRANCISCO -- Tim Hudson walked to the dugout after an impressive eight-inning performance in his Giants home debut and hardly realized 42,000 people were celebrating him with a roaring ovation. Mario Gotze Germany Jersey . "Honestly, I thought they were cheering for the mid-inning song," Hudson said. Nope. Michael Morse hit a two-run single to back Hudson as each made memorable home debuts with their new team, and Brandon Belt hit a two-run homer for San Francisco in a 7-3 win against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Tuesday. Hudson (2-0) shut down the D-backs for the second time in seven days with an eight-inning gem in his first outing at AT&T Park since agreed to a $23 million, two-year contract in November. He credits nice weather in Phoenix and the Bay Area in allowing him to work deep into the game his first two starts, a far cry from the heat and humidity he faced in Atlanta the past nine years. "Definitely Ill take these first two starts," he said. Belts drive off Trevor Cahill (0-3) gave him five homers and the Giants a majors-leading 12. New Giants left fielder Morse emphatically pumped his fist at first base after a third-inning single, then added a two-out double in the fifth. San Francisco scored four runs with two outs. Belt became the first Giants player since Jose Cruz Jr. in 2003 to hit five home runs through the first eight games. Nearly nine months after ending his 2013 season with a broken right ankle, Hudson followed up 7 2-3 scoreless innings at Arizona last Wednesday with another strong outing. He allowed three runs -- two earned -- and seven hits with four strikeouts and no walks in a 101-pitch performance. "Its hard to pitch better than he did the first two starts," manager Bruce Bochy said. Hudson stayed strong into the late innings, getting through a perfect, seven-pitch seventh with six strikes and a trio of groundballs. It was Hudsons longest outing since also tossing eight innings on June 26, 2012, with the Braves against the D-backs. He is still working to build up his fitness and stamina to avoid fatigue. "Its been a long road for me to get here," Hudson said. "Im just thrilled to be back out there pitching and competing, feeling somewhat healthy. I couldnt ask for a better start to the year." Arizona has now dropped four openers this season. The Diamondbacks lost in Australia to the Dodgers, at home to the Giants, and at Coors Field. "Can we get one more in?" D-backs manager Kirk Gibson quipped. Mark Trumbo failed to homer, ending his streak of games with home runs at four, which tied the club record. He also lost the ball in left-centre on Morses double. Brandon Crawford followed with a two-run single. "We had our chances," Gibson said. "We werent able to hold them down. We werent able to get the big two-out hits like they did." Cahill, who received no runs of support in his first two starts, gave up five runs and eight hits in 3 2-3 innings. Brandon Hicks earned the start at second base for the Giants and had a first-inning error that led to Arizonas first run.

Reyes, 26, was traded from Atlanta to Toronto in July 2010 and spent the remainder of the season in the minors. He began 2011 in the majors and made 20 starts with the Blue Jays, going 5-8 with a 5.40 earned run average before he was waived on Aug.TSNs Jack Armstrong offers his thoughts on home court advantage, the return of David West, the drama of Derrick Rose, the struggles of Lance Stepheson and the future of basketball in Milwaukee. 1. Home Court Advantage: As I sit here in Atlanta getting ready for Wednesdays Raptors game, Ive been thinking of how important home court is in the NBA. You need to look no further than Toronto and realize the impact the home crowd has had in the Raptors success these past 12 months. Ive been to every NBA arena multiple times in my 17 years as a Raptors broadcaster and Im telling you that in Toronto, youre talking about a home crowd thats awesome. Fans are knowledgeable and passionate and it shows. It surely makes a difference. 2. David West (Pacers): Likely back in lineup this week and his scoring, rebounding and leadership will be a big addition. Coach Frank Vogel has done a magnificent job keeping this team somewhat afloat. West will help stabilize things that much more. 3. Derrick Rose (Bulls): Im worn out already from this drama. Either play all out with nothing else to talk about or dont play at aall. Karim Bellarabi Germany Jersey. This soap opera is having an effect on their team despite what they say. Gotta be able to trust and rely on the fact that hes ready to roll when hes healthy. 4. Lance Stephenson (Hornets): This team has been a disappointment and misses Josh McRoberts. That being said, Stephenson has shot poorly (37 per cent) and is averaging under 10ppg. Not good enough for the investment that has been made in him. Their chemistry was excellent last season and I dont see the same flow in their offence. He hasnt brought his A game to the table and it better show up soon or theyre in trouble. 5. Milwaukee Arena: The clock is ticking to try and get a new arena deal done. If theres no new arena being funded and in the process of being built by 2017, the NBA has the right to buy the team and move it. Theyll be plenty of cities (Seattle, Louisville, Vancouver, Las Vegas, Kansas City) lining up trying to make a run at this team. Ive always enjoyed going to Milwaukee and I hope it all works out. Pressure is now on to get a deal done or theyll be gone in a few years and that would be sad.
