PHOENIX -- Giants closer Santiago Casilla said he had a night to sleep on it and went directly into manager Bruce Bochy's office before the game on Friday night and apologized for his emotional reaction on the mound with two outs in the ninth inning on Thursday night at Chase Field.
Bochy yanked Casilla after the right-hander loaded the bases by walking Paul Goldschmidt on four pitches in favor of left-hander Javier Lopez, who faced one batter to record a rare save in the 4-2 win over the D-backs.
Casilla animatedly danced around the mound as Bochy asked for the ball and when he reluctantly trudged away, the manager called him back.
