SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – Buster Posey and Brandon Crawford have accomplished a ton in black and orange. They both own golden gloves, too.
But the next time they put on a baseball uniform, it’ll be trimmed in red, white and blue.
After playing in the Giants’ 4-3 exhibition loss to the Kansas City Royals on Sunday, Posey and Crawford packed their bags in preparation for their flights to Florida. They’ll join Team USA and make their first career appearances in the World Baseball Classic.
Crawford even received a red, white and blue fielder’s glove that was more brightly colored than one of those old ABA basketballs.
