Highlight Patrick Bailey ties the game!

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

He was a polarizing player for the Giants, likely because of his bat, not his defense. I liked him. I think the pitchers in general really liked him. However, he was another bat in the lineup with a high strikeout rate. If the Giants had had more hitters in the lineup in 2025 whose strikeout rate wasn't near 30%, Bailey's bat wouldn't have been as big of a deal.
