The San Francisco Giants enter the “second half” of the season (dubbed as such because the “final 39.5%” doesn’t have a great ring to it) with a 50-48 record that is either achingly uninspiring, or beautifully inspiring, depending on what glasses you’re wearing. Bryan wrote about how awesome it is, and being an optimist who tends to look at baseball as a (fantastic, beautiful, borderline flawless) child’s sport and little else, I tend to agree.
Still, as awesome as you may think the season is, the postseason makes things better. At worst, it’s an opportunity for more baseball.
