The Miami Marlins were scheduled to throw righty Elieser Hernández at the San Francisco Giants on Friday night for the opening pitch.
Hernández had entered the day with 14 home runs allowed.
To put that in context, Giants starters Carlos Rodón, Logan Webb, and Alex Wood have allowed 13 home runs.
Combined.
And each of them have faced significantly more batters than Hernández had.
So you would expect that the Giants, a team that prides themselves on their charming charisma, dashing good looks, and ability to hit baseballs over the fence, would feast.
