Impact Flores has mostly occupied the short side of a platoon with Dominic Smith (hamstring) since the All-Star break, but with Smith landing on the injured list Saturday, Flores should get the chance to play on a near-everyday basis. The 34-year-old heads into Sunday's contest having produced a .238/.306/.375 slash line with 15 home runs, 67 RBI, 41 runs and one stolen base in 444 plate appearances on the season.

Blasts two-run shot Tuesday Flores went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run in a 7-4 win over the Rockies on Tuesday.

Over his last 201 plate appearances (55 games), Flores is slashing a frigid .230/.303/.343 with five homers, five doubles and 20 RBI since the start of June.

Goes yard in win Flores went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in Monday's 4-3 win over the Padres.

Impact Flores got the start at designated hitter, and he made an early impact by taking southpaw Nestor Cortes deep in the first inning. Flores was one of three Giants to hit a homer in the opening frame, and that ultimately was all the offense the team needed. Playing in a short-side platoon role, Flores will likely continue to be limited for playing time. The veteran infielder has gone 5-for-16 (.313) over just seven games in August. On the year, he's slashing .248/.316/.383 with 13 homers, 63 RBI, 37 runs scored and one stolen base over 395 plate appearances.
