Highlight Patrick Bailey ties the game!

Seriously, this dude is on fire! (Why are we supposed to not like him again?)

Bailey is trash. A couple decent games won’t change the fact he’s a .220 lifetime hitter. And hit .146 for us before we dumped him to Cleveland. If it wasn’t for his glove, he’d be bagging groceries.

10.3 WAR over three seasons before 2026 for the Giants, best defensive player in MLB, over 26% of his home runs have been walk offs. Only player in MLB history to have a walk over inside the park home run and a walk off grand slam in the same season. And he did it against the Phillies and Dodgers. He’s got the clutch gene and it’s been show cases in the post season.

There are some folks who think framing and defensive WAR in general is overrated significantly

That and game calling is severely underrated
