If Marco Luciano, Luis Matos and the rest of the Giants' young hitters break out this season, a new – but familiar – face in the clubhouse will be a big reason why. “Pat the Bat” is back with the Giants for the latest chapter in his charmed Bay Area baseball life. Pat Burrell joined new manager Bob Melvin's coaching staff as a hitting instructor, 29 years after helping San Jose's Bellarmine High win the West Catholic Athletic League title, 14 years after helping spark the Giants' breakthrough World Series run, and four years after he got his coaching start as a roving hitting instructor in th ..read more

The mandate for the San Francisco Giants in 2024 is crystal clear: This big-market, big-money team cannot miss the postseason for a third straight year. It doesn't matter how they reach the playoffs. They can magically and inexplicably win 107 games again (the super fun route) or sneak in with a barely .500 record (the got-it-done option).

Kinsley Murray is an old pro at singing the national anthem. It's an impressive accomplishment — especially for an 8-year-old, who can't get enough of the rush that comes from belting out “The Star-Spangled Banner” for crowds of sports fans. “When I see the people, I'm like, 'Oh, I think this is going to be a good performance,'” Kinsley says.
