The first week of baseball is in the books and the SF Giants observed a very encouraging sign from their longtime catcher, Buster Posey, who opted out of the 2020 season to keep his family safe during the COVID-19 pandemic. In his first official at-bat since the end of the 2019 season, the 34-year old worked a 2-0 count against Seattle Mariners lefty Marco Gonzales before driving a ball well over the left-field wall.
