Good morning, baseball fans!

I wish I wasn’t writing this for the second weekend in a row, but we have yet another concussion-like injury to a San Francisco Giants player. During the first inning of last night’s 4-2 loss to the Cincinnati Reds, Austin Slater collided hard with the center-field wall.

He was pulled from the game, thankfully, and as of the time this is being written had not yet been placed on the concussion IL, but I image he will be soon.
