Andrew Baggarly, The Athletic's San Francisco Giants wordsmith, joins DOB on today's pod! Andrew details San Francisco's expectations-shattering season, and their climb to become the winningest team in baseball. What's the secret sauce that makes the Giants so good? Will the club's pinch-hitting phenomena continue? David and Andrew discuss how Alex Anthopoulos, Farhan Zaidi, and Scott Harris have made moves along the margins to help their clubs win. Plus, Gabe Kapler's lessons learned in Philadelphia are paying off out West; fans shouldn't try to diminish the Dodgers' World Series title, and who will win the NL pennant race?
