By the way, a bit of trivia from today’s game that I found hard to believe:
Matt Olson and Rafael Devers are the only two players in MLB this year with 30 HRs and 30 doubles.
I listened to yesterday's game via the Braves broadcast on Sirius XM and heard another bit of trivia:
The Giants have won the season series vs the Braves by a 5-1 w/l margin for two years in a row. The last time the Giants accomplished that feat vs the Braves? 1904-05.
If there's one thing people have learned in Berkeley, it's that you can't put "Cal football" and "Rose Bowl" in the same sentence. The words just don't fit. You'd be better off linking "covered wagons" with "Mars travel." (Bruce Jenkins, Cal '70, SF Chronicle, Nov. 11, 2017)
