Welcome to the INSIDE CHINA BASIN Baseball Podcast

Updated 3 times a week on TheSportsVirus.com!

From Chase Field in Phoenix we have our first KONTOS IN THE PEN feature of the season with Giants RHP George Kontos. We also caught up with new SF 1B coach Jose Alguacil.

Kontos talked to The Sports Virus about the composition of the 2017 Giants bullpen: …“We’ve got some guys who can get both lefties and righties out. We have guys who have been there before, who have pitched late in the game before. So, I see a lot of what we’ve come to expect from the bullpen…It’s more of an old-school bullpen, just guys who can get both (lefties and righties) out, not as specialized.”

Alguacil told The Sports Virus about getting hit in the face with a foul ball during spring training: …“It was a scary moment…I had a broken nose, had to get surgery on my eye, but I’m fine right now. I have just a scar. I’m happy to be here…Everybody was very supportive. That day I had like 400 texts. Everybody was worried about it.”
