Arnies_Army Real name: Greg Hometown: San Jose, CA Email addy:garnerich@giantsfan.com Personal Bio: Computer Operator. 26 years old. Single Favorite Giants Players:Barry Bonds Favorite all time player: Jack Clark and Will Clark Favorite Giant/Baseball Memories: Will Clark's 8th inning 2 out base hit to help cinch the Giants first trip to the World Series since I've been a fan. GVL signing date:1998 Season I've been a huge Giants fan since I was 5 and joined the Orange Crush Little Giants Club which I was a member for 5 years. That was tough times for the Giants and usually a great season was if we could be spoilers. The 1982 season was one of my favorite season when we almost won the division and knocked the Dodgers out of it.
Auri from Half Moon Bay Email addy: ambj@coastside.net Favorite Giants Player:Bill Mueller Favorite all time player: Willie Mays Favorite Giant/Baseball memories: In 1989, the final out which meant we were going to the World Series. I was living on the east coast and I was on the phone with a Giants fan friend. I broke out into laughter which lasted for 10 solid minutes! GVL signing date:Mid-1997. Right after the first Cybergate. Back to Chatters
Bomanintheknow Real name: Richard Eckert Hometown:San Francisco Email addy: rboeckert@earthlink.net Personal Bio: Financial analyst, 42 years old, wife, 3 cats and an African grey parrot Favorite Giants Player: Toss up between Bill Mueller and Bernie Williams of the New York Yankees, both low-key, blue-collar and very underrated Favorite all time player:Mickey Mantle (a.k.a, the God in Baseball Heaven) Favorite Giant/Baseball memories: Again a toss-up. Brian Johnson's homer in the 12th inning against the Dodgers last year or Will Clark's 2-run single against Mitch Williams of the Cubs in Game 5 of the NLCS in 1989 GVL signing date:April, 1998 I am a consummate baseball fan. I believe there is more drama in baseball than in any other sport because one split second second swing of the bat can alter the outcome of a game. In addition to the two moments in Giants' history I listed above, let me add: Bill Maseroski's homer against Ralph Terry of the Yankees in Game 7 of the 1960 World Series, Carlton Fisk's homer in Game 6 of the 1975 World Series that sent it back to Cincinnati, Chris Chamblis' homer in the bottom of the ninth inning of Game 5 of the ALCS in 1976, Bucky Dent's homer against the Red Sox in the special playoff game between New York and Boston in 1978, Kirk Gibson's homer against Dennis Eckersley in Game 1 of the 1988 World Series and Joe Carter's home run off Mitch Williams (he figures prominently here, doesn't he) to win the 1993 World Series.
