There was a moment...
... right after Evan Longoria smashed a single to left field where I got excited about the possibility of a slightly above league average season from the slugging third baseman. A moment where any of us could channel the excitement of a new baseball season into our fanatical imaginations. He’s 33 and he’s had a whole season to adjust to a new team and league. Even with all the injuries last year, maybe he still has one good season in him?
... just as Buster Posey flied out to center to end the first where it looked like he was swinging pain free and you were allowed to feel wholly optimistic about his chances of being the Giants’ All-Star.
