Bruce Bochy made his return to the San Francisco Giants spring training facility Sunday, days after undergoing a procedure on his heart.
The Giants manager had surgery Thursday to improve the flow of blood by inserting two stents, but quelled fears by making light of the procedure to reporters.
Bochy says he was conscious for the entire procedure and said the discomfort he felt was never considered life-threatening.
Bochy said stents placed in vital area but his condition wasn't on verge of being "a widowmaker." Said he's got another 200,000 miles on him

Bochy should be in full health by the time he begins his 21st season as big-league manager on April 6 with the defending World Series champions.
