SAN FRANCISCO -- Hunter Strickland spoke with manager Bruce Bochy on Wednesday for the first time since the Giants' closer fractured his right hand punching a door after a blown save Monday night.
"We had a good conversation," Bochy said before Thursday's game against the Padres. "He feels horrible and remorseful for what happened. We talked about a couple things we could do different to help relieve that tension or pressure."
Strickland, who said he has received positivity and reassurance from his teammates, was planning to speak to the team Thursday.
