SAN FRANCISCO — A day after saying farewell, Matt Chapman and Mark Canha each still had a piece of the Oakland Coliseum with them.
On the top shelf of Canha’s locker back in the home clubhouse at Oracle Park, there was a mini Gatorade bottle filled halfway up with dirt, which he scooped up from around home plate after the Giants’ 4-2 win in their final game at the 58-year-old multipurpose venue on the other side of the Bay.
Chapman’s keepsake took up too much real estate to reside in his locker stall.
