Romo’s flavor will be called “Sergio Romo’s Mexican Chocolate.” As noted by Inside Scoop, Romo and Three Twins are hopeful the product will help raise money for immigration reform. The product will be sold at the Three Twins’ scoop shops, corn...

McCovey Chronicles Theory: It is absolutely worth it for a closer to blow a lead in the ninth if it leads to a walk-off win in the tenth.
