Yaz

Post by Good2BGold »

For those who missed it, Yaz was the leadoff man for the Giants last night and went 2-4 in a loss to the Dodgers. Although he wasn't in the Dodgers lineup, Walker Buehler was miked up in one half inning and talked about playing with no fans and other aspects of baseball during the pandemic.

Announced on the Fox Game of the Day broadcast (Giants @ Dodgers) that former 'Dore Antoan Richardson is an outfielders coach in the Giants' system.

Maybe he works with baserunners of all positions. If anyone is keeping track of "Most Career MLB Stolen Bases Without Being Caught" in the official Caught Stealing era, it's possible that Richardson is in the mix with his 6-for-6 stolen base record.

As a farmhand for the Giants (5 seasons, Rookie to AA), A.R. was successful 188 of 225 attempts with a best season of 66-9.

BTW: Yaz moved from CF to LF and caught the final fly ball out in San Francisco's win. He also had two hits and scored a run.
