A closer look at the weird stuff that happened in McCovey Cove on Saturday

Even under the best circumstances, live attendees of a baseball game probably pay, at best, 60% of their time actually focused on the game. That’s fine and to be expected, regardless how well the home team is performing. Being outdoors is refreshing and there are plenty of other sights and sounds to take in besides the pitcher-batter matchup.

We know Oracle Park has a lot of diversions from the game itself. It has always been that way. One of the park’s qualities is how it allows people to just come right up and get a little taste of what’s going on inside.
