SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. - One after another, players and coaches walked by Jose Alguacil in the Giants’ clubhouse to greet the first-base coach and wish him well.
“I feel great. I mean it. I feel really, really good,” Alguacil said six days after he underwent surgery at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Phoenix to fix a broken nose and close a laceration on the left side of his face.
Alguacil, 44, also sustained fractures of the eye socket when hit by a ball at Surprise Stadium, the result of a check swing by Kansas City’s Hunter Dozier.
