A great shot of Mays Field by EricBVD from a balloon last year. With the Rays going to the World Series, I can’t help but be reminded that the Giants came close to moving to Tampa Bay in 1992. It was so strange to think back then that my 35 years of fandom might have been …

Posted October 7, 2008 at 11:55 amI understand why Carlton Fisk’s home run was a big deal when it happened. Game Six, extra innings, walk-off home run, and all that. It must have been absolute mayhem. But the next day, the Red Sox lost the World Series when a reliever gave up a leadoff walk, a sacrifice, and a bloop single in the ninth inning. No championship. No joy in Beantown. …

Posted September 27, 2008 at 12:56 amAfter he won the trophy for most inspirational Giant, he hit one of the strangest homers ever — first use of instant replay at a Mays Field game. Fleming and Kuiper were pretty funny about it: “It really messes up your home run call.” “You say ‘It’s a single off the wall’ and 10 minutes later ‘It’s outta here!’” It tied the game …

Posted September 8, 2008 at 11:52 amAfter watching Pablo Sandoval spray the ball all over Mays Field on Sunday, I have the perfect new comparison: a switch-hitting Vladimir Guerrero who can play catcher. Wait, let me qualify that. Sandoval’s worst-case scenario is a switch-hitting Vladimir Guerrero who can play catcher. His best-case comparison is a switch-pitching, multi-position Babe Ruth. With Sandoval and Buster Posey, the Giants will really only need a …

Posted September 8, 2008 at 12:55 amAs the Giants face the embarrassing prospect of a fourth consecutive losing season, there’s a warning sign from 3,000 miles away. Or however far Pittsburgh is from San Francisco. Thanks to losing the last two games at Mays Field, the Pirates have racked up their 16th consecutive losing season, which ties the record for a sports franchise set by the Phils between 1933 and 1948. …
