A visit from 'Papa Yaz' and a home run makes for a memorable day for Giants OF Mike Yastrzemski

A visit from “Papa Yaz” before the game and a home run during it made for a memorable afternoon for Giants outfielder Mike Yastrzemski. The grandson of Hall of Famer Carl Yastrzemski hit a solo homer to right field — not far from where the former Boston outfielder's retired No. 8 is hanging from the façade — to help San Francisco beat the Red Sox 3-1 on Thursday. “I'm looking around, and I have my greatest childhood memories here,” said Mike Yastrzemski, who also homered five years ago in his only other visit to the ballpark where his grandfather played 23 seasons. Yastrzemski, 33, has three home runs this season and 90 in his six-year career, all with the Giants.
