The San Francisco Giants are one of the oldest teams in Major League Baseball. The franchise was born in 1883 as the New York Gothams. Two years later, they changed their name to the New York Giants. In 1958, they packed up and made the move to San Francisco.
In 137 years of Giants baseball, there have been some truly great players who have suited up for the franchise, including two of the greatest sluggers to ever play the game. Narrowing the list of all-time greats down to just four would be no easy feat, yet that’s exactly what the writers here at Around the Foghorn set out to do.
