San Francisco, CA – The San Francisco Giants and outfielder Hunter Pence have agreed to a five-year contract, the team announced.
The deal is worth $90 million, according to reports Saturday by CBSSports.com and the San Francisco Chronicle. It is pending a physical.
Pence, 30, hit his 26th home run of the season on Friday, a career-high, and was in the lineup for his 161st game of the season on Saturday.
