Wild Times in San Francisco
baseballmusings.com 6/22/2009 — Barry Zito out duels Kevin Millwood, despite Kevin striking out ten.

Barry Zito: Worst Pitcher Contract Ever?
jorgesaysno.blogspot.com 7/17/2009 — When the Giants signed Barry Zito in 2006, they thought they had just locked up their ace for the next seven years. The team believed that Zito had the goods to lead the Giants in the post Barry Bonds era by consistently taking the ball every fifth ...

scoresreport.com 6/24/2009 —
It’s been five years since the San Francisco Giants have made a postseason appearance, so you’ll have to pardon their fans if they’re overly optimistic about the chances of their club possibly making the playoffs this year despite a lineup that often employs Edgar Renteria as its two-hole ...
