5.5K38Pablo Sandoval on the Giants: “The truth hurts.”
I’ve avoided writing about this “story,” because it seemed so stupid from the jump. Hurt feelings shouldn’t exist after World Series wins. After three World Series wins in five years, everyone should be in love. After three rings and a contract totaling nearly $100 million, bygones should be bygones. Pablo Sandoval made some comments to […]

3.3K4Pablo Sandoval brings #FatChat to Boston
One of the major concerns with signing Pablo Sandoval to a lucrative long-term deal was how his conditioning would hold up once he got paid. Sandoval reported to Boston’s Spring Training complex in Fort Myers and … well … he looks … just take a look below: Pablo certainly didn’t go hungry this offseason. pic.twitter.com/P1PrK1TZLN — Baseball Swag™ (@Baseballswag_) […]

3.7K9Q&A with Giants CEO Larry Baer on Lester, Sandoval and more
About a week ago, Virgin America invited me to fly out to New York with a group of Giants employees and the World Series trophy. It was a whirlwind trip — arrive at the SFO ticket counter by 5 am on Wednesday, back at SFO at 7:10 pm on Thursday. It was a fun, productive […]

There are slated to be 100 vehicles in tomorrow’s San Francisco Giants World Series victory parade, which starts at noon. The list of participants is subject to change, but here are the players who are scheduled to ride down Market Street at about 3 mph. The current players are going two to a car, except […]

2.9K30Gammons: MLB GMs believe Giants will re-sign Sandoval (but Red Sox are lurking)
From Peter Gammons: General managers from other teams don’t think the Giants will let Pablo Sandoval go, but Sunday one member of their ownership group said there is a swelling thinking that the Red Sox will end up signing The Panda. “The bigger the stage, the better he plays,” says one Giant official. “He would […]

3.6K10World Series legend Madison Bumgarner sends Giants to Kansas City up 3-2
“For some reason I keep getting real lucky in this time of year,” Madison Bumgarner told Fox’s Ken Rosenthal after pitching a four-hit shutout in Game 5 of the World Series. “So, I’ll take it.” That was after Bumgarner doffed his cap and thanked the crowd, who showered the 25-year-old ace with “M-V-P” chants after his […]

3.1K7Bumgarner still a World Series star as Giants rout Royals in Game 1
Here’s how you know that a World Series win came easy … fans were clamoring for Tim Lincecum in the eighth and ninth innings tonight. The San Francisco Giants are three wins away from their third championship in five years after a 7-1 win over the Kansas City Royals in Game 1 of the World Series. Tonight’s matchup of aces […]

Nine Giants looking for their third championship in San Francisco
The Giants have to win four more games before we can even think of bringing up the “d-word” to describe this team, and a look at who remains from the championship team in 2010 shows just how nimble a team has to be to enjoy sustained excellence — or even every-other-year excellence. Homegrown talent is […]

3.0K11Giants come back from three runs down to take 3-1 NLCS lead over Cardinals
It’s humbling for just about everyone but the Giants themselves, as predicting what’ll happen in this series is impossible. The Cardinals certainly figured they would’ve picked up a game at AT&T by now. Juan Perez is drawing walks in playoff games, and Giants fans are on the edge of their seats in hopes of seeing […]

2.5K17Giants take 2-1 lead on walk-off bunt, error (and I took photos)
What else can you say about a game like that? It’s a wonderful time to be in San Francisco. My days as a credentialed baseball reporter are over in 2014, so I waited until the last minute, “bought” a ticket on Stubhub (Rewards FanCode bucks really are the best), and walked down to AT&T Park. I […]

3.1K15Four dingers, four stories: Giants lose a postseason game on the road, time to freak out!
I would’ve had to check under my couch for $100 bills if the Giants won Game 2 of the NLCS, which they did not. They lost 5-4 in the ninth inning of a tremendous baseball game that was probably seen by about 500,000 people, due to Fox using the NLCS to inflate a sort-of-new sports network. […]
