Welcome to the INSIDE CHINA BASIN Baseball Podcast
Updated once a week and celebrating its 12th season on TheSportsVirus.com!
San Francisco Chronicle reporter Susan Slusser details the Giants season and why chemistry has been so important to a team that “kind of likes a little bit going under the radar.” We discuss why the front office, Gabe Kapler, veteran players including mainstays Buster Posey, Brandon Crawford and Brandon Belt, unexpected heroes like Lamonte Wade Jr., a rotation that has been stellar at times and a workhorse bullpen have all contributed to the best team in baseball.

Welcome to the INSIDE CHINA BASIN Baseball Podcast
Updated 3 times a week on TheSportsVirus.com!
It’s opening day at Chase Field in Phoenix for the Giants and The Sports Virus is there chatting with new Giants Aaron Hill, Chris Marrero and Amy Gutierrez from NBC Sports Bay Area.
Marrero told The Sports Virus why making the Giants roster is special: “…I’m just honored to be here and part of this organization. I want to enjoy my time and do whatever it is I can do to help this team win because this is a great team and we’ve got a lot of expectations.”
Hill told The Sports Virus about reducing the pressure in his battle to win a job in spring: “….You just have to take a step back and tell yourself I can’t force hits, just take a deep breath and relax.”
Amy G talk to The Sports Virus about the new Giants closer: “….If you spend two seconds with Mark Melancon you realize they got a good add in him. He’s just a very composed, very nice, gentle Giant literally and figuratively. When he gets on the mound he kind of turns into a beast.”
Come back WEDNESDAY for more opening day interviews. Coach Jose Alguacil and RHP George Kontos will be our guests.
