I'm father to Samantha Allen & Stephanie Haft, veteran of covering MLB for nearly 30 years & author of 3 well-reviewed but rarely bought books on the SF Giants.

@Darkdarling00 Despite your prediction, I'm 20-for-20.. II'm also 66 years old. My guess is that many folks close to my age have tried 'em all.

Bay Area rockers, rejoice! Neal Schon, Journey's lone remaining charter member and a Santana veteran, will sing the Star-Spangled Banner today before the Giants' home opener against Seattle.

By now, I'm hopeful that everybody who loved Willie McCovey knows that I have written the first full-lengt biography of the Giants legend. It's titled "A Giant Among Giants: The Baseball Life of Willie McCovey" and it was published by University of Nebraska Press.

Willie Mays' death prompted a cascade of emotion. I tried to capture a sampling of it -- along with some personal reminiscences about the man -- in a piece that appears on the New York Giants Preservation Society website (newyorkgiantspreservationsociety.com) and on its Facebook page

@giantpandaOG @KNBR Visiting MLB teams used to stay at the St. Francis. Even the teams playing in Oakland stayed at the St. Francis. It’s right on union square but also tenderloin adjacent.

On this singular day, I begin 2/4/24 by saluting the man who made me feel like I was 9 years old well into adulthood, who delivered the power & magic of the world's greatest game & who made my favorite team, the San Francisco Giants, look regal. All hail No. 24, Willie Mays!
