Matt Williams was a longtime Giants star as a third baseman in the 1990s. But that isn’t stopping the fan base from wanting him fired as the third base coach after back-to-back losses to the lowly Marlins where the Giants have had a runner thrown out at home plate in each game.
On Tuesday night, the Giants were down 3-2 in the fifth inning with Rafael Devers on first with two outs when Heliot Ramos laced a double down the left field line. As left fielder Kyle Stowers fielded the ball, Williams decided to wave Devers — who is playing through a minor groin injury — home.
