Giants' Rocky Weekend, Tony Vitello's Future & The Legendary Story of Tommy John with Mike Krukow

View descriptionShare
 

This week on the show, the conversation is all about the San Francisco Giants and their disappointing weekend series against the Rockies. The team's struggles on the field were matched only by the harsh words from manager Tony Votello in the post-game meeting. But amidst all the frustration, there's a glimmer of hope - the news that Votello will be back next year, and the lessons he's learned from this season.

The Giants' pitching staff had a tough weekend, with ten walks on Sunday and a series loss. The team's struggles have been well-documented, but the question is what's next for the coaching staff and the players. Will there be changes, or will they stick with the same lineup and strategy? The conversation also touches on the impact of Tommy John surgery, a pioneering procedure that's changed the game of baseball forever.

The episode also delves into the life and legacy of Tommy John, a legendary pitcher who dominated the game for nearly three decades. From his innovative approach to the ball to his remarkable comeback story, John's story is one for the ages. And in a fun segment, the hosts reminisce about their own experiences facing Tommy John on the mound.

If you want to hear more about the Giants' future, the lessons learned from this season, and the incredible story of Tommy John, tune in to this episode.
