The 24-year-old Venezuelan outfielder, Víctor Bericoto, is proving his worth in spring training, where he serves as a guest for the San Francisco Giants.

He has a solid chance of keeping a place on the opening roster and being part of the big team's patrol squad, especially because of his good performance.

The fact is that the Maracayero is the co-leader of the preseason —along with Matt McLain—in RBIs with 11, and he is also one of five batters with more than 10 charters. The others are Addison Barger of the Toronto Blue Jays, Coby Mayo of the Baltimore Orioles and Cuban Edgar Quero of the Chicago White Sox; all with 10.

He is also the leader among the Criollos in hits with 11, which divided by his 27 rounds, gives an average of .407 over his 13 games in the Cactus League. In addition, it has a base percentage of .393, Slugging of .704 and OPS of 1,097. He is also one of four Giants players with two homers.

However, the competition for that probable last place in the gardens of San Francisco is not easy, as there are also Jerar Encarnación, Jared Oliva, Grant McCray, Bo Davidson, and even the Venezuelan Luis Matos, this, knowing that the starters are projected to be the Puerto Rican Heliot Ramos, Harrison Bader and the South Korean Jung-Hoo Lee.
