2 weeks ago | sfbayca.com | Jesse Garnier

Photographs by Scot Tucker/SFBayThey almost gave it away. Then, just like that, Willy Adames ripped it right back. Amid the pulsating bedlam of an statuesque Oracle Park home opener, Adames played the hero Friday afternoon, lining a two-out, two-run single to right in the bottom of the 11th to cap a chaotic, see-saw, 10-9 Giants victory over Seattle. Forget the script. This game mulched it. Composted it. Then fertilized it with a slurry of pure adrenaline and maybe a little Bay Area magic.

Sep 15, 2024 | sfbayca.com | Steven Rissotto |Jerold Chinn

A few days ago, Heliot Ramos showed interest in becoming the first right-handed hitter in Oracle Park’s 25-year history to crush a homer into McCovey Cove. After 104 “splash hits,” all from lefties, the Giants left fielder achieved his goal with ease by demolishing a clutch, game-tying no-doubter the opposite way in the ninth. Few have come close, like Buster Posey‘s last professional homer in the 2021 National League Division Series, but none have accomplished the feat until now.

Aug 13, 2024 | sfbayca.com | Steven Rissotto |Jerold Chinn

Ten years ago, the right field gates at Kauffman Stadium swung wide open for Madison Bumgarner and his long trot toward the mound to finish off the Kansas City Royals in Game 7 of the 2014 World Series for the San Francisco Giants. For many Giants fans, the memory of Bumgarner’s entrance is a constant in their baseball-loving brains — the thought doesn’t leave their minds, nor will it ever.
