Ace Tim Lincecum might have had an offseason. His regular season stats weren’t his best showing. But somehow this guy managed to rally late in the season and long into the post-season, outgunning sterling arms like Derek Lowe and Cliff Lee in memorable playoff showdowns. Matt Cain also rose to the occasion when the chips were on the table, failing to yield a single earned run in three playoff starts. On the back end of the rotation, Madison Bumgarner seemed to thrive under pressure, making a name for himself with a sterling performance against the Rangers when it counted the most. For the Giants, it was a vindication of management’s commitment to their program. For the folks who buy San Francisco Giants tickets, it was pure delight. Oh yes, we can’t fail to mention the Giants bullpen, namely Brian Wilson, who made the phrase “fear the beard” into a household cliché in the Bay area.

This century has been fairly good to the San Francisco Giants. In 2000 they won the NL West Division Title, sold out every home game, Dusty Baker won his third NL Manager of the Year award, and Jeff Kent won the NL MVP. 2001 showcased Barry Bonds hitting a record making 73 homeruns on the year. In 2002 they sailed all the way to the World Series before losing to the Angels. In 2003 with manager Felipe Alou, the Giants were only the 9th team in Major League Baseball history to lead their division from the start to finish of the season before losing to the Marlins in the playoffs. In 2004 they barely missed the playoffs, but 2005 was the only truly disappointing season because of injuries to Barry Bonds that caused him to miss almost the entire season. Bonds’ healthy status as well as a full off-season of rest and rehab should be something for Giants fans to be optimistic about.
With seventeen World Series appearances and five titles, the San Francisco Giants have a tradition of winning second to no one besides the New York Yankees.

San Francisco Giants tickets should be a must for anyone living in or passing through the great city by the bay between April and deep into October of next year.
