Happy Monday, San Francisco Giants fans. I don’t want to jinx anything, but the Giants seem to be getting back on track after a second straight series win over a good team, and a 5-1 home stand. Just as Casey Schmitt gave them a boost recently, fellow 2020 draftee Patrick Bailey has given the Giants a boost since getting called up on Friday.
Suddenly the Giants are surging. They’re only two games out of the Wild Card, and a whole 1.5 games ahead of the San Diego Padres, which will remain amusing for as long as it’s true.
