Sunday was something of a special day for the San Francisco Giants and their fanbase. It’s been an incredibly trying season with the team in the midst of one of the worst campaigns in franchise history, but everyone got a chance to smile before Sunday’s series finale with the Arizona Diamondbacks.
After a professional baseball career that spanned three decades and multiple continents, Ryan Vogelsong returned to the Giants again. This time, it wasn’t a minor league contract for a guy that hadn’t appeared in a big league game in five years. Instead, it was a last hurrah to a major league career that featured more than its fair share of ups and downs, and highs and lows.
