Worth the Wait;

It was the moment generations of San Francisco Giants fans had longed for since the
team moved west in 1958. When the 2010 Giants defeated the Texas Rangers to win
the City s first ever World Series, decades of pent-up frustration erupted into pure
elation and the afterglow is still shining bright. The road to that singular achievement
is captured in all its glory in Worth the Wait, the Giants one and only official 2010
season and World Series commemorative book.

All-Star closer Brian Wilson provides his truly unique perspective in the Foreword, and
fan favorite broadcasters Mike Krukow and Duane Kuiper contribute the Introduction.
With a narrative written by popular KNBR sports radio personality Brian
Murphy, author of San Francisco Giants: 50 Years, and images by acclaimed Major
League Baseball and Sports Illustrated photographer Brad Mangin, along with
contributions from Giants team and other Bay Area photographers, Worth the Wait
chronicles a season that was as magical as it was unexpected.
From Spring Training to the stretch run through the playoffs and the World Series, all
capped off by the epic ticker-tape parade, this treasury of exclusive photos and stories
transports Giants fans inside the action and behind the scenes, including on the team
plane with the World Series champions and their coveted trophy on the jubilant flight
home.

Worth the Wait is the ultimate keepsake and a must-have collectible for fans of
all ages wishing to relive the greatest and most surprising, satisfying and unforgettable
season in Giants history.
