Not in the best mood after the loss in his country Giants For the first time, manager Bob Melvin had nice things to say about Lee afterward.

Lee and Giants He'll be looking for a different result against San Diego's Joe Musgrove (0-0, 16.88 ERA). The veteran right-hander will make his second start of the season after being roughed up by the Los Angeles Dodgers for five runs on seven hits in 2 2/3 innings in Padres' 15-11 win last week in Seoul, South Korea.
Musgrove, who went 10-3 with a 3.05 ERA last season, went 4-3 with a 3.86 ERA in 13 career starts against San Francisco.
Musgrove, 31, remains confident after a shaky start that followed a shaky spring (13.50 ERA).
“I feel like I've always been someone who finds my stuff and gets better as the games go on, as the season goes on,” he said. “The more reps I get in the game, I feel like that's when I make the best adjustments throughout the matches.”
