Who knew that Brandon Crawford could pull off such a convincing Uncle Jesse? Also, Hunter Pence cleaning off his scooter might as well be Danny Tanner. Tim Lincecum might have been a better fit for this role. In general, it’s a combination of stats and scores with a side of “here’s all the wonderful things we’re doing for fans” and “hey, look at us, you guys, see how much we’re donating to charity”.

Curiously, no one takes on the role of Rebecca.
