Champions!


The San Francisco Giants!  Champions for the second time in three years!!  Go Giants!!!

A magical ride.  Behind 2 games to 0 against Cincinnati, with three to play away from home.  Won all three!

Behind 3 games to 1 against St. Louis.  Won three in a row to advance to the World Series.

In the Series against a Detroit team that had humbled the Yankees.  And then we won 1, then 2, then 3, then a 4th, all in a row to win it all 4-0.

The magic is easily seen.  Great pitching.  Timely hitting.  Incredible defense.  A manager who overcame every obstacle, who made all the right moves month after month and then went with what got him there in the postseason – all without ego or histrionics.  A management and executive team second to none, with vision and common sense.  A park that suits the team.  And a fan base that filled the park for every game and never gave up. 

Finally, on the field a team that loves each other, will battle for each other, and is ready for a new hero every day.

A great, great season.  Go Giants!!!
