A Child's First Giants Game

Cool story about a kid's first giants game. Loved the Renteria part.

I wish I could remember my first gmen game, though I think nowadays you can get a certificate or something at the park?

I saw Bonds go deep at Candlestick my first game; 7/1/1990. Ended up getting season tickets with my mom the next year in LR2.

I have Croix de Candlesticks older than you.

My memory tells me it was a giants-padres game, foppert started, and giants won 5-3. Although about a year ago I looked through foppert’s game log to try to find the game, and apparently this game never happened. So who knows.

I went to a day game at candlestick. I ate skittles and Barry Bonds hit a homerun

Thanks

Kudos for the link to a nice story. I don’t remember my first game, as it was over 40 years ago. My first memory of a Giants’ game is one in which Gaylord Perry hit a homerun, yes, Gaylord Perry. :)
