Pretty unconvincing

The smile on Gabe Kapler’s face as his team made their way off the field appeared painted-on. A veil more than anything. Laugh so you don’t cry. Best to dress up in neon colors and pink jumpsuits and cowboy frills because it’s too difficult for the San Francisco Giants to look themselves in the mirror right now, considering how they just dropped 3 games to the Colorado Rockies; how the team’s postseason odds are hovering at a hair above rock bottom; how they have forfeited control over their playoff fate; how they were a wrist-flick away from being swept; how they had a 9-0 lead in the 6th inning but defensive miscues leading to extra outs and lackluster relief work allowed the Rockies to bring the winning run to the plate before the final out was recorded.
