Remember Atlee Hammaker, “Buffy” LaCoss, “Caveman” Don Robinson, Will “the Thrill” Clark, Matt Williams and the Crazy Crab?
We Giants fans have suffered for many, many years. We finally got our championship!
I also remember Candy Maldonado's lost fly ball in the lights in 1987 to lose a Dravecky gem in NLCS game 6. Getting blown out by the A's and the quake in 1989. Winning 103 games and losing to LA on the last day of the season in 1993. Getting swept by the Marlins in 1997. Losing the one-game playoff to the Cubs in 1988. Dusty not pinch hitting for Gardner in 2000. Losing the 5-0 lead in 2002 WS game 6. Jose Cruz Jr.'s dropped fly ball in 2003.
Tonight, all are forgotten! :)
Those’re my guys to. Hack Leonard, Chili Davis, Mike Aldrete, Robby Thompson, Big Daddy Reuschel and Jose Uribe!
