The San Francisco Giants have one of the best defensive teams in baseball, but outfield defense has not been a strength in recent years.
That’s part of the reason that Kevin Pillar was acquired from the Toronto Blue Jays earlier this season. He delivered some memorable moments with the bat in his first few weeks with the team, but his biggest contributions were always going to come with the glove.
That was certainly the case on Saturday.
While the 30-year-old has made some phenomenal catches over the years, the one he made scaling the center field wall at Great American Ballpark last night has to rank right near the top.
