Summary
Connor Grossman and Kerry Crowley are back after another frustrating week for the Giants, who remain the only team in baseball that still hasn't won four consecutive games. Why have the Red Sox and Phillies turned their seasons around while the Giants continue to spin their wheels? Connor and Kerry dig into that before unpacking another Willy Adames head-scratcher.
