Description

Mandy uses the same pencil in the press box when she’s on a streak of strong stories. Sarah’s grandmother hid in the kitchen when the Giants played tight games. Everyone in the baseball world, even the most rational people, seems to succumb to superstition – and we want to know why. So we asked Adam Wainwright, Jordan Luplow, Mike Brosseau and a few others for help.
