Giants-Blue Jays preview: Key element missing from Bruce Bochy’s farewell tour

TORONTO — When reporters gathered in manager Bruce Bochy’s office following the Giants’ 3-2 win on Sunday, his desk featured a sizable new decoration.

A three-liter bottle of wine featuring a picture taken off of an old baseball card from his playing days sat next Bochy, who is in the midst of his 25th and final season as a major league manager.

Nearly everyone in the room had the same idea. The bottle was surely a gift from the Pittsburgh Pirates, who wanted to acknowledge Bochy’s career and his final visit to the city with a custom memento.
