Who do you think of when consider the best leadoff hitter in San Francisco Giants history? I firmly admit my answer is, “Uhhhh, I don’t know.” Brett Butler became a Dodger, so it can’t be him. Marvin Benard was once the leadoff hitter, so, is it really a question we should be considering? And then there’s the beautiful Andres Torres. I think it’s a question with good but not great answers.
This was going to be a post about how the San Francisco Giants have found a rare gem of a leadoff hitter in LaMonte Wade Jr.
