The SF Giants have had some interesting news with the National Baseball Hall of Fame as of late. Jeff Kent, a great Giant, was elected by the Contemporary Era Committee while Barry Bonds was snubbed again and Giants broadcaster Duane Kuiper was just snubbed by the institution.
Kuiper was a finalist for the 2026 Frick Award which is awarded by the Hall of Fame to a broadcaster. Kuiper got passed over for the award by Joe Buck who, as Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area noted, does not even call baseball games anymore.
