A Band of Misfits: Tales of the 2010 San Francisco Giants ReviewMy main apprehension was that this book was going to be a terrific book but one that I had already read. With all the terrific coverage that we as Giants fans get from Andrew Baggary on in his Mercury articles and his blog Extra Baggs, I was wondering if he had any stories, antidotes, or related stories that had yet to be covered. Luckily for the devoted Giants fan there is tons of extra insight into the magical Giants season that was 2010. It almost makes me wonder if every year Baggs holds some stories out just in case they win the big one and he has to write a book. (you better not be!!!) To the average reader it is a perfect introduction to a team in a championship season that rivals very few, "The Bad Guys Won" about the 86 Mets and their inspiring run comes to mind. Anyway, its a terrific book for a Giants fan or for a baseball fan in general. It's such a great story that I would read it even if it was about the Dodgers....... (maybe not)Anyway for more on Baggarly's amazing writing check out his blog Extra Baggs
A Band of Misfits: Tales of the 2010 San Francisco Giants OverviewThe 2010 San Francisco Giants were the most unlikely World Series champions of all time. Sure, they had some quality pitchers, but the Giants roster consisted of a rag-tag group of castoffs, oddballs, rookies, and old-timers who seemed a lot more entertaining off the field than on it. After 53 years of futility, San Francisco was hungry for a baseball championship...but the 2010 Giants? Then, as the season waned, some type of magic descended on the Bay Area and enveloped the club, leading them to the most miraculous of championships. How the Giants came together as a team and shocked the country all the while, doing things in their own offbeat fashion is one of baseball s all-time great stories.In Band of Misfits, Andrew Baggarly longtime Giants beat writer for the San Jose Mercury News shines a light on the colorful characters (lovingly labeled the Dirty Dozen by manager Bruce Bochy) who became stars during San Francisco s crazy ride to the top, including Aubrey Huff and his now-legendary Rally Thong; clean-cut rookie extraordinaire Buster Posey; and laissez faire Tim Lincecum, whose laid-back personality is a perfect fit for the City by the Bay. Behind every madcap misadventure there was also an unquenchable drive to succeed and prove the naysayers wrong. Too young, too old, not good enough? This team never bought into those excuses. Every baseball fan will love Baggarly's inside stories of The Misfits run to the title.
