Before the game, the Giants honored the 2010 World Series winning team. Today was chosen because the Giants are playing the Rangers, the team they beat in that World Series. Given their opponent, it feels a little less like taking a trip down memory lane and more like Joffrey showing Sansa her father’s severed head. The Rangers have had their fair share of painful memories in the golden age of Giants baseball from the 2010 World Series to the 2011 World Series to losing the AL West in 2012. Sam Dyson’s presence on the other side is enough of a reminder of the moment that inspired this Christmas sweater.
