Pants Up
In show of team unity, everyone on the field, including Equipment Manger Mike Murphy, wore their pants high today – Barry Zito, Hunter Pence and Brandon Belt were no longer the odd men out when it came to their Giants uniforms.

Much Better
Good news – We found our missing baseball skills after passing through immigration last night. SF 8 – COL 6
Siete de Mayo
The good news (or GREAT news if you’re in the bleachers): the flock of confused seagulls decided to wait until the end of the game to check out AT&T Park. PHI 6 – SF 2
Grateful Dead
The Giants have a tradition of honoring and teaming up with great musicians. In 2013 alone, Giants fans can look forward to Metallica night on May 3, Grateful Dead night on August 5, and Elvis night on September 9. Over the next six days we want to look back at some moments when the Giants pair up with some of the best musicians and acts of our time, starting with San Francisco’s own Grateful Dead.
Another Walk-Off!
All it took was a single by Andres Torres, a sacrifice bunt from Brandon Crawford and a line drive single by Brandon Belt for the Giants to complete their second walk-off win in three days.
