Joey Bart was forced back into action with the MLB club after Curt Casali went down with a strained oblique.
PHOENIX — There was a new but familiar face in the Giants clubhouse here on Tuesday: Joey Bart. When manager Gabe Kapler ran in to the rookie catcher for the first time, he gave him a firm handshake and clapped him on the back with his left hand.Even though Bart rejoined the big-league club Tuesday after a shorter-than-anticipated month away, it took another day for him to be activated on to the roster.
“In a perfect world, you don’t make that decision based on injury,” Kapler said. “You make it based on performance. But we don’t live in that world, so here we are.” “His schedule, his program was much different for the last few weeks than it was when he was here,” Kapler said. “I think that alone gives him a good chance to come out on the other side feeling better.”
