“I have a table-tennis table at home. Everyone who comes to visit has to play a set against me. I’ve resolved never to lose one. I just smack them away.”

TURN BACK THE CLOCK… The Giants and Cubs wore replica uniforms from 1912 today… Some elements from today’s turn back the century game include:
• The scoreboard had a vintage look and videos were not shown. • There was a roving barber shop quartets outside the gates. • Giants photographers, ushers, security guards, grounds keepers and other staff wore 1912 era garb. • Only organ music was played the entire game.
