This week, the Giants will continue their road trip, starting with a four-game series against the Philadelphia Phillies, then heading back to the West Coast to visit the Los Angeles Angels. Which also means there will be no off-days this week. Personally, I am torn this week.

Photo by Thearon W. Henderson/Getty Images Good morning, baseball fans!The San Francisco Giants are wrapping up another week of games today, and so it is time to take a look back at the week that was and pick some of our favorite highlights of the week. I have to pre-write these, so often times I will pick something from earlier in the week. But I don’t think my choice this week is a stretch by any measure. In Wednesday’s game, the Giants were tied with the Cincinnati Reds in the 10th inning.

The season is in full swing, and I’d like to do a sort of temperature check every few weeks to see what you guys think is going well, or could use some work.

Photo by Thearon W. Henderson/Getty Images Good morning, baseball fans!On Tuesday night, the San Francisco Giants debuted their new City Connect uniforms. Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area wrote a pretty great piece outlining the design process for the new uniforms, and how they were inspired by the rich musical history of San Francisco, and have a connection to the team’s New York days. As a concept, I think it’s really well thought out and executed.
