Buster Posey back with Giants after unique offseason throwing program: diaper tossing [View all]
Buster Posey officially took the field for the Giants on Wednesday for the first time since the pandemic summer camp, when he decided to opt out because of health concerns over his premature adopted twin girls.
Since then, those twins, Ada and Livvi, have provided Posey with unique ammunition for his offseason training regimen. The catcher said on a video call with reporters that because his 9-year-old son, Lee, doesnt help much with changing, unlike twin sister Addison, Posey likes to ball up used diapers and throw them at him.
He knows that Im about to fire it at him, so hell go running, Posey said with a laugh. Ive been keeping my arm in shape that way by firing diapers at him.
You have to really make sure that you have the right weight of the diapers. So, depending on how well theyve been feeding, that plays a lot into my accuracy, and if its equivalent to the weight of a baseball ... Ive been pretty accurate.
