San Francisco, CA (SportsNetwork.com) - The reigning World Series champion San Francisco Giants officially announced on Tuesday that they have re-signed veteran pitcher Jake Peavy to a two-year contract.

Peavy flourished with the Giants after being acquired from Boston just prior to the July 31 trade deadline, posting a 2.17 earned run average and a 6-4 record over 12 regular-season starts.
