Sandoval to honor manager who always had his back
SAN FRANCISCO -- Pablo Sandoval burned his share of bridges when he left the Giants for the Red Sox in 2014, but his conversation with his manager that offseason carried a different kind of emotion. Sandoval still remembers how hard it was to tell Bochy he was leaving. He told Bochy he would miss him. Bochy responded by telling Sandoval he wished he was returning.
"He said, 'Enjoy your moment. This is the time you've been waiting for,'" Sandoval recalled recently.
Three years later, Bochy was there waiting when Sandoval decided to come back.
