Giants Bring Trophy To NY For A Visit

On Jan. 21, Baer said, the Giants plan to take the trophy to P.S. 46 in Manhattan, near the site where the Polo Grounds once stood. Mays, who starred there at the beginning of his career, will come along.

From 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. the next day, the Giants will display the trophy at the Hilton New York, where fans can have their photograph taken with it. From 3 to 5 p.m., the trophy will visit Finnerty’s in the East Village, which calls itself the largest San Francisco Giants bar in New York.

Good news for us NY fans. I’m going to get over there with my son for a picture with the trophy.

I’ll probably check it at the Hilton. Finnerty’s was a madhouse during the postseason, and I have to imagine it’d be the same for this.

Are you kidding?

I lived two blocks from “the largest San Francisco Giants bar in New York” and I didn’t even know it?

Finnerty's?

Give me a shortwave radio and the Holiday, please.

My son is Madison Bumgarner, the Bipolar Stuffed Sheep of pitching prospects. My other son is a Porsche.

What’s the address at the Hilton? Is that the one on 6th and 53rd?

I think so.

The others go by different names: Hilton Tribeca, Hilton Times Square, etc.
