Good morning, baseball fans.
It’s hard to think of a more frustrating season of San Francisco Giants baseball in recent history. The bad years, you knew they were going to be about as bad as they were. They were pretty consistently bad throughout the season. The mediocre years, you knew they were going to be pretty mediocre, and they were pretty consistently mediocre throughout the season.
The collapse in the second half of 2016 comes to mind, with all of its new, creative, and painful ways of losing baseball games. But even they managed to make the playoffs in the end.
