Awkward is simple enough to understand the press conference to officially announce Gabe Kapler as the new skipper for the San Francisco Giants. Instead of fanfare to welcome a new manager, the choice in Kapler is one move drawing negativity from Giants’ supporters.
Perhaps the table the two shared along with the new general manager, Scott Harris, could have been a little smaller to signify all is well amongst the touchy-feely trio ushering in a new era for Giants baseball.
The purpose of a small table was probably to show unity amongst the three knowing the media was not interested in how the lineup card will develop for each game.
