Romo ready to resume key role for Giants

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Closer Brian Wilson has an edge to his demeanor and a hedge on his face.

But he is not the only San Francisco Giants pitcher who has a beard to be feared.

Around the corner from Wilson’s locker at Scottsdale Stadium is the spring residence of right-handed reliever Sergio Romo.

Romo’s beard is just as full as Wilson’s, and it even has its own Twitter account — RomosBeard.

With all this attention and a World Series championship ring due to arrive during the first homestand of the regular season, it’s sometimes difficult for Romo to believe what has happened.
