Thursday BP: Giants clinch a winning record for the first time since 2016

Good morning, baseball fans!

Despite their best efforts, the Giants were unable to out-Mets the Mets last night and came away with a win. Though they are dangerously close to going full-Mets, and that’s never what you want. So hopefully they can escape Citi Field this evening without taking any of....

With that win, the Giants clinched a winning season for the first time in four seasons. And what a long four seasons they were. The Giants haven’t had a winning record since the Cubs won the World Series. Which isn’t saying as much as it used to, but Kris Bryant is now a Giants. Coincidence? Maybe. Or maybe not. Time will tell.

Anyway, here’s a post game picture of Johnny Cueto to start your day on the right track.
