Look Mom! My First Game In The Bigs!

With this being the year of rebuilding for the Giants, it’s been fun seeing all the rookies making their Major League Debuts.

Today, in the area formerly known as “Area-in-front-of-the-[former]-Bonds-squad”, 25 year old Brian Horwitz had his first start. Kuip had a great comment of what Horwitz may have been going through today:

“He’s got butterflies, that he didn’t know there were species of butterflies that existed. They’re big, and they fly around a lot.”

Welcome to the bigs Brian!
