Minor League Giants Affiliate to Host Mason Saunders Night

On Sunday, thanks to The Athletic's Andrew Baggarly and Zach Buchanan, the world learned that Diamondbacks starter Madison Bumgarner moonlights as a rodeo roper when he is not on the mound under the alias, "Mason Saunders."

As a result, the San Jose Giants, a Class-A Affiliate of the San Francisco Giants said it's "time to saddle up" for Mason Saunders night on Friday, June 5.

Per the team's release, the evening will be complete with a San Jose Giants/Rodeo Shirsey giveaway and themed promotions. Fans are also encouraged, per the team, to dress up as their alias or alter-ego.
