Hug your franchise legends yall 🙁
What a shit 2 weeks. In the span of like 11 days I’ve had to hear Dave, Jon Miller, and K&K choke up mid game, it just hurts man. RIP Baby Bull <3 He’s playing soft toss with 24 again
RIP legend
the fuck man
Fuck, that was unexpected
Baby Bull is one of those nicknames that’s always stuck in my memory. Damn.
RIP
Being a Giants fan is getting rough man
Losing him and Mays within such a short length of time is just so sad. I imagine it’s how Yankee fans felt in July 2010 losing Bob Sheppard and George Steinbrenner within just a few days of each other.
This sucks man
Tough few weeks for the franchise. Franchise legends never die.
Adios Cha Cha.
Forever Giant.
post-Giants, he bounced around baseball a little, playing for the Cardinals, Braves, A’s, Red Sox, and Royals
Man just reading his wiki shows you how much adversity he had to overcome. You take an 18-year-old Puerto Rican kid who didn’t speak English and ship him off to the Deep South in 1955 and tell him to really focus on playing baseball
Then you add in losing his father and falling into a depression on top of all the societal pressures it’s a huge load for a young man to carry
Are there any other giant legends who are up in their age currently? Because god dam the rule of 3’s.
can everything just stop
RIP to our 2 kings #24 and #30. Shitty couple of weeks for the organization
I fucking *hate* June, man
It’s been a rough couple weeks for Giants fans. RIP Baby Bull. I wasn’t alive back then to witness you or Willie play together but I am proud to have you as a part of Giants history.
Juan Marichal is the only Giants Hall of Famer from that era left. Protect him at all costs
What a loss for Latin ball players, especially Puerto Ricans. What a rough few days for Giants fans
What a fucking horrible month for the Giants and baseball.
