McCovey Cove Dave kayaks his way to souvenirs outside AT&T Park
Ever wonder about the kayakers who patrol for home run balls in McCovey Cove? Meet Dave Edlund, a Giants fan who has snagged fifteen souvenirs from the water outside AT&T Park.
"McCovey Cove Dave" is part of a community of Giants fans who hang out in the Cove hoping to add another baseball to their collections. They've formed friendships -- until the ball is in the air -- and each has their own strategy for optimal boat positioning.
Edlund's plan maps out where various hitters have hit balls in the past, an intricate process that has yielded him more homers than any other kayaker. His approach worked on Tuesday night, when he was able to recover Brandon Belt's splash hit.
