Giants Remove Third Base Coach Borg, Wotus Steps In Interim
San Francisco reassigned Hector Borg to player development after a rough stretch of baserunning mistakes, with Ron Wotus filling the role temporarily.
The Giants officially reassigned third base coach Hector Borg to a player development role following a series of costly baserunning errors this season. Ron Wotus will serve as interim third base coach while the organization searches for a permanent replacement. Borg, 40, was promoted to the MLB staff for the first time last offseason after nearly two decades in the Giants' minor league system. A notable recent blunder saw Willy Adames thrown out at the plate in the eighth inning of a close game against Arizona.
