Bruce Bochy seems to be asked the same questions every day.
About coping with the dwindling chances of reaching the playoffs.
About Hunter Pence’s health.
And he tends to answer the same way.
“Stranger things have happened” and “Until he swings a bat . . . ” are a couple of his favorites. But what else can he say? Bochy is putting on a good face in a dire situation - 7 ½ games back with 18 to play and one of the game’s top run-producers on the bench.
Time is running out, but Bochy would rather take this stance: “I assure you, they still believe something good could happen. It’s a good group.”
