Matt Williams is the best 3B of the 90s But wow 😮 So much baseball nostalgia in one place... Joe Morgan, Harry Carey, Barry Bonds, Todd Benzinger, Candlestick Park, Vin Scully, Will the Thrill, Girardi the Catcher... Ah the good old days 👍
In that magical 1993 season that ALMOST saw the Giants make the postseason (103 wins and watched the playoffs on TV), Williams had a 2-HR game on April 18. The second one came after an improbable four-run ninth inning comeback to tie up the game at 12 apiece. Matty came up against former teammate Steve "Bedrock" Bedrosian, and clubbed the first pitch into the left field bleachers to give the Giants a 13-12 walk-off win, and Candlestick went nuts.
I was taken to a night game in the mid 90’s by my pops. It was so cold. We usually did day games with the family. But, this night I got to see candlestick in full hurricane force. I was an ice cube in the left field bleachers watching an actual hotdog wrapper tornado that seemed to just never stop. That place was pure magic.
I'm with you, TJ. Act like you've been there before. Just like when Jerry Rice or Barry Sanders would score a touchdown, they would just flip the ball to the nearest Referee. Matt Williams lead by example. Class, pure class. The big Marine
