This off day is perhaps one last chance for some San Francisco Giants to listen to their favorite offseason podcasts before the season really kicks into gear. One last chance to say goodbye to the mental break they were able to take because it’s serious business time now.
And if you saw yesterday’s game, it’s clear the team had other things on its mind. Maybe they just knew going in that facing the Yankees on Opening Day in Yankee Stadium with a triumphant Aaron Judge back in New York’s lineup and Gerrit Cole on the mound was a no-win scenario no matter how brilliant and comprehensible the front office’s game plan was.
