Giants struggle with pitch clock, but Brandon Crawford shows his time isn’t up

New York Times  

NEW YORK — The clock was the enemy for Alex Cobb in the first inning Saturday night. Because without Craw, we’re not going to get to where we want to be.” “I guess my best game of the year so far,” said Crawford, eliciting laughs from reporters at his locker. Never a doubt 😅pic.twitter.com/N83msn4j7D — SF Giants on NBCS April 1, 2023 So on a night when a Yastrzemski got a hit at a Yankee Stadium for the first time in 40 years, when the Giants showed off the value of their depth-based pitching staff, when the pitch clock seemed to move at the pace of a hummingbird’s pulse and yet also probably saved both teams from enduring a lengthy weather delay from a storm that began to arrive in the ninth, it was Crawford who led them in the handshake line. “The ball’s in my court, right?” Sabol said he bunted when he noticed that third baseman Josh Donaldson had moved back after a 3-0 count and stayed back after it went to 3-1. “I’m going home to kiss the dirt.” John Brebbia’s reaction after giving up three deep fly outs to LeMahieu, Judge and Rizzo 🤣 pic.twitter.com/7fQShVjG2k — KNBR April 1, 2023
