It would have been such a nice story. The Giants, coming into this game at 68-69, had a real chance to be a 69-69 team at 4:20 PM today. The official McCovey Chronicles Twitter account (follow, like, and retweet!) has been on this story for a couple weeks now:
Good morning. The #SFGiants are 61-61. The last two games of this upcoming 16-game stretch have 1:05pm start times, which means there's a 12.5% chance they could clinch a 69-69 record at 4:20pm.
