Summary

With a history that straddles two coasts and more than a century of winning, the Giants baseball club stands out as one of the great franchises of professional sports. The organization boasts more Hall of Fame inductees than any other baseball team, as well as twenty National League pennants gathered over nine different decades. From McGraw and Mathewson to Mays and Marichal, Hubbell and Ott to Sandoval and Lincecum, the Giants have been bringing excitement and drama to the diamond for generations.Giants Past & Presentgoes around the horn to celebrate the legends at each position on the field-from the little-remembered stars of the nineteenth century to the heroes of tomorrow--and visits the memorable and distinctive ballparks that have housed the team on two ends of the continent. The book presents the players, dugout and front-office wizards, voices from the broadcast booth, hard-luck heroes, ballparks, and myriad rites of spring that keep fans coming back year after year.
