The Oracle Park scoreboard has “lit up the ballpark” to show support for various workers impacted by COVID-19. Mondays—Purple (Hospi-tality), Wednesdays—Blue (Health care), Thursdays—Red, white and blue (first responders) and Fridays – Gold (frontline workers).

San Jose Giants and naming rights partner, Excite Credit Union, cre-ated a Frontlines Meal Fund to support and show gratitude to person-nel at the forefront of the fight against COVID-19. The fund will provide meals to essential healthcare, police, fire and EMT personnel working tirelessly to combat the pandemic.

COACH SPEAK: ANTOAN RICHARDSON Each week we'll get to know the new Giants coaches with a few fun ques-tions in this space. This week it's 1st base coach Antoan Richardson.

You have a perfect 1.000 career batting aver-age vs. Clayton Kershaw. He isn’t that tough to hit is he, LOL? In all seriousness, how did it feel to get your first career hit off Kershaw?

AR: LOL. He is one of the best, if not the best in the past decade. I just found the biggest bat and hoped for the best. In the moment, I was just finding a way to get on and help the team.

You also went 2-for-3 off Kevin Gausman in your career. Did you ever give him a hard time about it in camp this year?

AR: Until reading this question I had no idea what I did off of him in my career. What we did talk about, was how he picked me off of first in Camden Yards.

How loud was the crowd when you scored the game-winning run off Jeter’s walk-off single in his final game at Yankee Stadium? How did you feel after the umpire signaled safe and you knew you’d scored the run?

AR: It might have been the loudest thing that I have ever experienced. When I knew I was safe, I felt relieved. I knew I had an opportu-nity to leave that stadium without wearing a disguise.

What is your favorite home-cooked meal?

AR: Chicken Souse. It is a Bahamian dish and the best way to describe it is chicken soup.

GIANTS YOUTUBE CONTENT DROPS Forever Giant: Matt Cain

Watch Beginning April 29

Matt Cain joins host Renel Brooks-Moon for a candid conversation about his impressive 12-year career with the Giants. From the Perfect Game, to winning World Series Championships and adjusting to life after baseball, it's a story you don't want to miss.

SEASON TICKET MEMBER HEROES OF THE WEEK Each week we'll highlight a Giants season

ticket member or members who are stepping up during this tremendous time of need. This week we salute the work of Chris Denevi and Leann Hargis

When the shelter-in-place came out Chris and Leann were in Scottsdale for the Giants Spring Training and decided they needed to find a way to help get through this pandemic.

As a retired RN who had worked through the AIDS crisis and in the NICU with high-risk newborns, Chris understood the need for Medical and frontline personnel to prop-erly protect themselves to keep from getting and spreading the virus. In listening to what nurses were saying it became clear that face shields were needed, but in short supply.

Leann is an entrepreneur that had been look-ing at 3D Printers for prototypes and decided to call MakerGear in Ohio and had a 3D printer within three days. Leann then joined others in an active 3D community and began printing the parts for face shields that were difficult to get for medical and frontline workers.

The face shields are printed from a plastic biodegradable filament and take about three hours each to print. A laser-cut clear shield is

then attached to the printed headband and a protective printed chin guard is added along with an elastic band to secure the face shield. A face shield provides protection from cough-ing or droplets when a frontline worker has to be close to another person.

To date they have sent out over 100 face shields to requesting hospitals and continue to make more for frontline workers. All of their face shields are printed in black and or-ange, it’s a winning combination!

GIANTS PLAYER SPOTLIGHT | ALEX DICKERSON Raised in Poway, CA near San Di-

ego. Father, Ross, flew F-14 Tomcats

from aircraft carriers all over the world and was a graduate of TOP-

GUN, the Naval Weapons Fighter School. He made seven deployments

generally lasting eight months at a time and returned to the States

permanently in 1999, when Alex was nine. He retired in 2002 at the rank of Commander. In

1993 he had the experience of ejecting from one of the fighter jets when an engine caught fire over the Miramar

Naval base in San Diego. His final operational deployment was as an air operations officer on the USS Kitty Hawk in Yokosuka, Japan.

Also a Navy man, Alex’s grandfa-ther, Howard Dickerson, was a re-connaissance pilot in the Battle of Midway and in the Solomon Islands campaign in World War II.

Dickerson started limping one day while playing football as a sophomore at Poway High School. For six months it was diagnosed as a knee injury, but a physical thera-pist later discovered that it was ac-tually his back that caused the knee pain. Doctors said he couldn’t play sports, the risk was too great in someone so young.

Dickerson was at a baseball ban-quet with former Major Leaguer Tom Brunansky and Bruce Bochy. Brunan-sky introduced Bochy to Alex’s dad, Ross, and told Bochy about Dickerson’s back issue. Bochy connected him to the Padres’ doctor, who also said he didn’t think Dickerson could play but referred him to a doctor specialized in microsur-gery. The surgery worked and Dicker-son went back to playing baseball for his junior and senior years.

Attended Poway High School in the San Diego area and was two years be-hind Bochy’s son, Brett (who appeared in seven games with the Giants from 2014-2015).

In 37 games as a senior, he hit .455 with 44 RBI. Nearly half his 55 hits went for extra bases, including eight home runs.

Deron Johnson, his high school hit-ting coach, tells about Dickerson get-ting spiked in the arm playing first base in the first game of a big doubleheader against the crosstown rivals. It was an ugly, bleeding gash, and three coach-es and the trainer were ready to take him to the ER. His military dad takes a look and says, “He’ll be fine. Tape him up. We’ll take him after.’’ Dickerson got three hits and played both ends of the doubleheader. “He always gave you ev-erything he had,’’ Johnson says.

Ross and Alex’s mother, Carol, couldn’t watch or listen to any of his col-lege and professional games until they were over. “I’ve had enough stress in my life,’’ Ross says. They turn off their cell phones, too, to avoid texts. When the game’s over, they look at the box score, see how he did then they can watch the game with no anxiety.

They attended every game during high school and are good to watch his games from the ballpark itself.

FAMIILY INFORMATION- Father, Ross, was a career Naval Flight Officer who retired in 2002 when Alex was 12.

- Mother, Carol, is a registered dieti-cian and worked at several hospitals before giving up that career to raise her children

- Has one sister, Kelsie, who gradu-ated from UC Berkeley. She walked on to the Cal soccer team and played for three years. She was the Defen-sive Player of the Year as a senior.

- Kelsie is now an assistant scientist for a pharmaceutical company in Southern California.

KAPLER'S KITCHEN Each week, Manager

Gabe Kapler will give us some of his favorite food spots from

around the US, in no particular order.

Starlite BBQ and Whiskey Bar has a diverse BBQ inspired menu. All of their meats are smoked in house (their sauces are made in house too).

I’m way in on their beef ribs and their brisket, both which don’t need sauce. To accompany the ribs/brisket, SBBQ has a world class whiskey selection.

I spent many spring training nights at the edge of the bar, iPad in one hand, bones in the other.

STARLITE BBQ & WHISKEY BARSCOTTSDALE, AZ

PRESS BOX EATS Pizza Pot Pie by Giants reliever Tyler Rogers and fiancée Jennifer Ryan

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. While doing so, brown all three meats while breaking them up. Strain meat after browning.

Place meat in pan that you will put pasta sauce in and then add two jars of sauce and pep-peroni's

Put on low and let sit for an hour. Add some mozzarella cheese to it throughout the hour.

When you have an hour until dinner, start preparing the bowls.

Put butter all in the bowl and on the top & sides.

Put four slices of cheese all around so none of the inside of the bowl is showing.

Add the sauce in the bowls next after its cooled down a bit.

Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top. Spread the dough over the top and butter it. Put the bowls on cookie sheets that have

parchment paper on it. Bake at 400 for approximately 25 minutes. Upon taking out the bowls, put butter on top
