Sergio Romo will retire in a SFGiants uniform, but not before he makes one last appearance in the Orange and Black.
“There’s no lightning in this bottle, trust me. You’re not going to find that. But I know I’ll try to compete my ass off when I’m out there. I might actually be nervous for a change.”
Romo was selected by the Giants in the 28th round of the 2005 MLB Draft out of Colorado Mesa University. As one of the best underdog stories in the Giants organization, Romo sprinted through the minor league ranks and made his major league debut in 2008. Across nine seasons with San Francisco, Romo logged a 2.58 ERA, 2.71 FIP and 10.2 K/9 while helping the Giants hang championship banners in 2010, 2012 and 2014. He was part of the “Core Four,” a group of four relievers – Romo, Jeremy Affeldt, Santiago Casilla and Javier Lopez – who were around for all three titles.
Romo departed the Giants in 2017 when he signed with the rival Los Angeles Dodgers in free agency. He then went on to suit up for the Rays, Marlins, Twins, A’s, Mariners and Blue Jays.But one place has always been home for Romo. “Forever Giant,” Romo told Baggarly. “You hear that, forever Giant. And for me, that’s what’s up. I mean that. Forever grateful. Legitimately, that’s what’s up.”
