Summary: On today's Locked On Giants podcast, host Ben Kaspick talks about the San Francisco Giants being one win away from clinching their first postseason berth since 2016. Yes, winning the NL West remains the regular-season goal, but clinching a postseason berth in baseball is always worth celebrating. Not to mention the fact that it would be the first playoff appearance for a number of Giants, including Mike Yastrzemski and manager Gabe Kapler. Ben also discusses the outstanding success of unlikely players like Darin Ruf, Tyler Rogers, and Jarlin García, all of whom can be found on some seriously impressive top-10 and top-5 lists. Finally, Ben discusses the specifics of the Giants' sweep of the Cubs over the weekend. Austin Slater and Wilmer Flores came off the IL, and Flores made an immediate impact. However, Ben adds outfield communication to the short list of flaws for the 2021 Giants. Baserunning has also not been their strong suit. Over the weekend, there was another collision in the outfield, between Slater and Kris Bryant, and that just can't happen. Fixing the issue is simply a matter of having better communication, and that must happen to avoid potentially disastrous situations in the postseason.
