Mike Krukow explains why SF Giants hiring Tony Vitello initially raised his eyebrow

The SF Giants have been quiet when it comes to acquiring players this offseason, and if they do not make any other additions their two biggest moves will have been hiring Tony Vitello as manager and acquiring an old theater.

Giants broadcaster Mike Krukow appeared on the Splash Hit Territory podcast and explained why, initially, he raised his eyebrow at the unconventional Vitello hire which certainly went against the grain for president of baseball operations Buster Posey.

"I had a raised eyebrow when it first went down."

Mike Krukow says he thought the Tony Vitello hire was 'ballsy,' but after meeting him, he understands what impressed Buster Posey.
