At the beginning of the season not one sports writer picked them to go all the way. Too many unknowns, too many oddballs. As it turned out, these writers weren't far off. The Giants had a roller coaster season that took them to the very last game of the season. Unable to clinch the division in the first two games of a three game home stand against the Padres, they finally pushed through and won the final game 3-0. It was at that moment that San Francisco fans started to believe. Long suffering Giants fans were finally rewarded when the Bay Area bad boys defeated the Braves, Phillies and Rangers to Clinch the Series.
Tim Lincecum, Matt Cain, Barry Zito, and Jonathan Sanchez all had great seasons but none of that would have mattered without Brian Wilson. The amazing, flamboyant Brian Wilson. Neon green shoes. Giant black beard. Ridiculous talent. Wilson converted 48 out of 53 save opportunities making him one of the most feared relievers in the league that year.
And the Giants weren't just about pitching, they were also flush with clutch hitters. Buster Posey, Aubrey Huff, Freddy Sanchez, Juan Uribe and Pablo Sandoval just killed it that year with amazing on-base averages and huge RBI's. Buster Posey had such a great year he was eventually named NL Rookie of the Year.
