Tournament Time!

Game 1 of the 2012 World Series brought San Francisco Playoff Fever to a new level.  Considering it was the second time in World Series history that 3 Cy Young Award winners pitched in the same game and Pablo Sandoval tied the WS record with 3 home runs in the game San Franciscans had a reason to celebrate.

The winners of each week’s tournament will be published in the 2013 Giants Yearbook.
