The San Francisco Giants are incredibly sorry they almost put their catcher in life-threatening danger during a Monday light show for their closer, who didn’t even get a save. Giants catching coach Alex Burg received a flood of concern and gifts from those inside and outside the organization after he was forced to catch a pitch from Camilo Doval in almost complete darkness, according to stories published Tuesday from the Athletic, MLB.com and the San Francisco Chronicle. (The Chronicle and...
San Francisco Giants players have a new gesture to celebrate hits this season, and there’s a growing consensus among fans that it’s a reference to an infamous gag from the team’s first San Francisco-era title-winning team. Giants fans sound convinced the gesture — where players swipe their hands down across their face, then mime a zipper shutting across their mouth — is a reference to “The Machine,” a gimp gear-wearing character that the Giants’ current hitting coach, Pat Burrell, brought to San...
Who are these San Francisco Giants? A month into the 2024 season and it feels impossible to come up with a true answer to this question. At the end of April, the Giants sit at one game under .500, firmly in the mix for one of the National League wild card spots while not losing complete sight of the Dodgers in their own division. The consternation that seemed to consume the fan base at the beginning of the year, especially around the time of the sweep in LA, has dissipated some. No, the Giants...

Marine Corps Base Hawaii - Throughout the month of April, in celebration of Earth Month, Marine Corps Base Hawaii’s Environmental Compliance and Protection Division hosted various events which educated service members and base residents on environmentally conscious habits and provided opportunities for them to directly contribute — and represent the installation’s commitment — to the sustainability and conservation of natural resources and the environment, in turn cultivating healthy minds and...
Warning: this post contains spoilers for Velma season two. The conspiratorial face Velma Dinkley (Mindy Kaling) is making in the image above is how I imagine Velma’s team looked while mapping out season two of the show. Yes, Max’s animated comedy dropped 10 new episodes on April 25 despite the vicious haters of its 2023 debut run. Seemingly everyone lost their goddamn minds in response to Charlie Grandy’s innocuous, subpar, and occasionally fun—there, I said it—series. Far worse TV shows...

We sat down with A-list stylist Maeve Reilly to discuss all things spring style and her latest Rent the Runway partnership.
The older I get, the more my dying brain cements around the idea that fans invoke “small sample size” primarily when they don’t like the results. In a small sample size, Joey Bart is doing very nicely as a new member of the Pittsburgh Pirates, who’ve come to play the San Francisco Giants this weekend in a 3-game series. He’s 7-for-23 with a trio of dingers, a double, and 8 RBI to go with 5 walks against just 8 strikeouts. That’s a triple slash of .304/.429/.739 in a measly 28 PA. Now, it’s not...
