Worth noting

• Manager Bruce Bochy said first baseman Brandon Belt (neck) was held out of baseball-related activities Monday. Bochy hopes that Belt, whose discomfort is not considered serious, can play Tuesday against Colorado.

Mark Minicozzi, who has one of the Giants' three homers this spring, crushed a ninth-inning drive to left field that was ruled foul. Bochy confirmed that the call was correct. "I hit a few of those," said Bochy, who spent parts of nine seasons in the Majors. "They were always foul."

Yusmeiro Petit, the pre-camp favorite to capture a long reliever's role, fell to 0-2 and has allowed eight runs (seven earned) in 2 1/3 innings. Bochy reiterated that Petit's finesse style often doesn't play well in the Cactus League. "This is not the best place for him to get in shape," Bochy said. "He's not a power guy."
