In 2023, San Francisco Giants closer Camilo Doval had a season full of achievements. He was selected to his first All-Star team, led the majors with 39 saves and 60 games finished, won his third Reliever of the Month award, and became the 8th Giants pitcher to get a win in the All-Star Game.
In 2024? Things didn’t go nearly as well.
The Giants went all-out before the season to upgrade the infrastructure for Doval’s entrances. They added spotlights, flashing LED lights, 523 new speakers, and 56 amplifiers to increase the drama of Doval’s relief appearances.
