Photos of the legendary San Francisco Giants include the crowd urging them to stay in New York, Seal Stadium where the Giants played their first two seasons in San Francisco, a huge ticker-tape parade to welcome the Giants after they moved to San Francisco (Jim King & Bob Speak are in the first car while Willie Mays & Darrel Spenser are in the second car,) and a photo of Willie Mays & Orlando Cepeda.<\/p>\n

Exciting Baseball Fever is in the air as we enter World Series Season. For baseball fans, it’s “root, root, root” for your team. In the past decade, I was rooting for my home team, the San Francisco Giants, as they won 3 World Series Championships in just 5 years!<\/p>\n

Some ask what Buster Posey’s roll will be in 2020, or wonder if Will Smith and “MadBum” Madison Bumgarner will sign with another team.<\/p>\n

Legendary characters such as Carl Hubbell, Rogers Hornsby, Willie Mays, Willie McCovey, Juan Marichal, Gaylord Perry, Bobby & his son, Barry Bonds, Pablo Sandoval, Tim Lincecum, \u00a0and so many others played for the Giants and are covered in a fantastic book, San Francisco Giants–Images of Baseball<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The book is a history of the San Francisco Giants from their days playing in New York through their first World Championship in San Francisco (in 2010.)<\/p>\n
