My father still remembered ... third baseman named Thompson from the NY Giants hit a home run ...
Yes, my father too and that's why I'm also a Giants fan.

Yup. my father remained a NY Giants fan and SF Giants fan until the day he died.

I still remember my father taking us to an exhibition baseball game that was sold out before the season started. Just amazing to see that game and all the baseball fans that were present to see the S.F. Giants. I still remember that pre-game when 4 or 5 Giants including the Say Hey Kid were fielding baseballs from a hitter. I forget what they called that but it was better than the actual game itself.

We know now why my father took us out to see the S.F. Giants play that exhibition game, since my brother and myself were playing little league baseball as my eyes well up.

We used to play that same game when I played on the H.S. baseball team. It really checks out your hand and eye coordination like nothing else can.

I liked the Giants when M&M boys played but once they retired Mays and McCovey then I went to be a Dodgers fan and then an Astros and Rangers fan now.
