BUSTER POSEY NEWS

What's not to love about Kelby (Clark Kent/Superman) Tomlinson, our excellent utility man? He's 26, from Oklahoma, went to Texas Tech, and was drafted by the Giants in 2011. His first MLB home run was a grand slam, as we beat the Cubs. The next day, he hit his first walk-off single to beat the Cardinals. A week later, he hit an inside the park home run to give us the win over the Rockies! What a way to start your pro career, eh?! Keep up the great work Clark, and let's go Giants! #RespectTheSpecs

Clark Kent (Tomlinson) drives in MVPosey and the Giants WIN! Javi got the W, but The Shark pitched a beautiful game, and Casilla did not give anyone hives tonight (Okay, he always gives me hives, but he didn't blow the save!). Yes! Yes! Yes!

Best wishes to Matt Duffy, our beloved Duffman, who is now out for the season due to his Achilles' tendon injury. He was on the DL when traded, and came off after a short time in TB. Apparently their artificial turf (I so don't get why anyone plays on that junk in 2016?!) was hard on him, and now he must undergo surgery to repair it. Having had an Achilles injury myself, I can tell you that it's incredibly painful, and takes a long time to heal. Best wishes for a speedy recovery Duffman! We love and miss you!Also, best...
