In fact, he handled the situation so well that Pham received props from the Giants analyst. Mike Krukow in transmission
“Oh man. Tommy Pham, you’re a better man than me,” said Krukow. “I would be making snow angels in the batting box on that one.”
Pham ran the bases himself after HBP … but was removed from the game shortly thereafter in the bottom of the 8th.
Fortunately, the manager of the Padres Jayce Tingler He said it was removed for precautionary reasons … and is expected to be fine in the future.
