SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — The San Francisco Giants have activated right-hander Matt Cain from the 15-day disabled list and designated lefty David Huff for assignment.

Cain was activated in time to start Friday’s series opener against the New York Mets.

Cain had been sidelined since May 22 with a strained right hamstring. He is 1-3 with a 3.66 ERA in eight starts this season.

Huff was 1-0 with a 6.30 ERA in 16 relief appearances.
