The SFGiants hope Casey Schmitt's memorable debut is the first of many over the next couple of seasons.
The Giants have been waiting years for the next generation to arrive, and Schmitt didn't just walk through the door on Tuesday. He kicked it down.
"Whether it be a play at third base or shortstop, or hitting a home run like that, I think he's just a very exciting player," Webb said."Every night he has a chance to do something pretty cool, whether that's on defense or on offense. I think just that in general can provide a spark for the team and I'm excited to see him up here. Hopefully, it's just the start to a very long and great career.
The group was heard all night, starting"Let's Go Casey!" chants in the lower deck and cheering so loudly that players and coaches looked up from the dugout at times. When Schmitt homered, his dad struggled to hold his grandson as he bounced up and down in a rocking ballpark."It was so many emotions," he said."Just everything bundled into one."
