Laurence M. Baer

PresidenT and chief executive officer

A fourth generation San Franciscan, Larry Baer has gained a national


reputation as one of professional sports leading visionaries. A limited partner of the Giants ownership group, he was named team president October
1, 2008 and CEO on January 1, 2012. In his first year as President and
CEO, the Giants won their second World Series Championship in three
years and extended the teams home sellout streak to 165 regular season
games by drawing 3,377,374 fans. In October 2012, the Giants won six
straight elimination games and swept the Detroit Tigers in the World Series.
As President and CEO, Baer serves as the clubs control person on all
Giants, Major League Baseball and industry issues. Baer is responsible for
the overall day-to-day functioning of the Giants organization. After having
served as executive vice president since December 1992, Baer was named
chief operating officer of the franchise in May 1996. In that same year, he was named president of the
China Basin Ballpark Corporation (CBBC), a private entity formed by Giants investors to finance and
build the new ballpark, which opened in April 2000. Under his direction, the Giants opened Pacific Bell
Park to widespread acclaim and sold 3,244,320 tickets, shattering the all-time club attendance record
by more than 650,000. The new ballpark enjoyed rave reviews as one of the best ballparks ever built.
The San Francisco Lowell High School graduate was the driving force behind every phase of the
ballpark project, including the parks original design by HOK Sports; the successful voter campaign in
March 1996; the subsequent private financing package that featured the highly successful Charter Seat
program; the unprecedented drive to secure a record 28,000 full-season ticket holders, and the final
construction of the facilitya San Francisco landmark. The club enjoyed unprecedented support since
opening the ballpark in 2000becoming one of only four teams to exceed 3,000,000 in attendance
eight consecutive years (2000 2007). The Giants have also been the standard bearer in all of baseball
for sponsorship revenue, while branding the park as one of the most popular venues in the country for
special events.
In the World Series Championship year of 2010, the Giants once again achieved this milestone,
as 3,037,000 passed through the turnstiles during the regular season. The month of October featured
seven sold out post-season home games, culminating in the November 1, 2010, World Series clincher
in Texas. Baer and his staff worked with the City of San Francisco to stage the unforgettable Parade and
Civic Celebration, attracting an estimated one million elated fans. In 2011, the Giants set the all-time
single season attendance record of 3,387,303 and was named the Sports Business Journals Professional
Sports Organization of the Year.
Baer and Peter Magowan led the effort to assemble a new ownership group and negotiate the 1992
sale which kept the Giants in San Francisco. Baer has been a key strategist and negotiator of the clubs
major transactions since that time, beginning with the Barry Bonds signing in November 1992 through
the awarding of the 2007 All-Star Game. He was also a driving force in the Giants partnership with
Comcast on the new regional sports network, which debuted in 2008.
After earning Phi Beta Kappa honors at the University of California in 1980, Baer joined the Giants
as the clubs marketing director. In 1983, he left the Giants to attend Harvard Business School, followed
by a four-year tenure at Westinghouse Broadcasting in San Francisco and New York. He finally returned
to the Giants in December 1992 from CBS, Inc. in New York, where he had served as special assistant to
the networks chairman, Laurence Tisch.
In 1996, Baer was accorded the San Francisco Distinguished Leadership Award, a highly coveted
honor given to individuals who have contributed to their community and provided leadership for a better quality of life. In addition, the Giants executive received the prestigious Sports Torch of Learning
Award by the Scopus Society of the American Friends of The Hebrew University in 1995 and the AntiDefamation Leagues Torch of Liberty Award in 2001. In 2010, Baer was the featured Person of the Year
honoree at the San Francisco Boys and Girls
Club Annual Gala and in January, 2012 he
was honored as the Harvard Business Schools
Alumnus of the Year.

Brian R. Sabean

SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT AND GENERAL MANAGER

Brian Sabean, who is currently the longest-tenured General Manager in Major


League Baseball, was named San Franciscos senior vice president and general
manager on Sept. 30, 1996. During his 16 years as GM, he has seen the Giants
capture six post season berths (including three World Series appearances and
two Championships), with the club under his watch having earned more than
half of its ten overall playoff appearances since moving West.
In 2012, Sabean was named Baseball Americas Executive of the Year as he
stewarded the Giants to their second World Series Championship in his tenure as General Manager. During
the campaign, he acquired several key players, including Marco Scutaro and Hunter Pence.
Since Sabean assumed the GM reins following the 1996 season, the Giants have won two World
Championships (2010 and 2012), three National League pennants (2002, 2010 and 2012), five NL West
Division flags (1997, 2000, 2003, 2010 and 2012), been a Wild Card entry (2002) and forced a Wild Card
tie-breaker game with Chicago in 1998, while posting a 1,392-1,198-1 (.537) mark during that 16-year
span. This winning percentage is sixth overall in MLB, the third best in the National League and best
in the NL West Division during Sabeans tenure. In addition, under Sabean, the Giants are one of only
three teams in the Major Leagues that have been to the World Series three times or more since 1997 (also:
Cardinals, 3 times and Yankees, 6 times) and are third in the National League with six post-season appearances in that span.
Recently under Sabeans watch, the Giants organization has received prestigious awards, being named
the Topps Organization of the Year in both 2009 and 2011 and the Baseball America Organization of the
Year in 2010. These awards are given to Major League teams that show outstanding performance, depth
and talent throughout their Major and Minor league teams.
In his 21st year with the organization, and 28th season as a baseball front office executive, the 56-yearold Sabean was honored as 2010 Major League Baseball Executive of the Year by the Boston Chapter of
the BBWAA. He was tabbed with the same honor by both The Sporting News and Baseball America in 2003.
In his first year as the Giants GM, the Concord, NH native finished second in The Sporting News 1997
Executive of the Year balloting. He seized national headlines for his bold player moves that season, engineering some of baseballs most successful blockbuster trades, which catapulted San Francisco to its first
divisional championship in eight years.
During his tenure as GM, Sabean has acquired some of the games best players via trades. They have
included: Giants All-Stars Jeff Kent, Jason Schmidt and Robb Nen, as well as standout performers Ellis
Burks, Joe Carter, Andres Galarraga, Kenny Lofton, Jose Mesa and J.T. Snow. The Giants GM has been
known to bring reinforcements during the July 31 trading deadline, acquiring the likes of Carlos Beltran,
Burks, Javier Lopez, Pence, Freddy Sanchez, Schmidt, Scutaro and Randy Winn.
The team architect also brought future Hall of Famers Omar Vizquel to San Francisco in 2005 and
Randy Johnson in 2008, while adding Giants All-Star Benito Santiago in 2001, two-time Gold Glove
catcher Bengie Molina and five-time National League All-Star (and eventual 2010 World Series MVP) Edgar
Renteria in 2009.
Before his promotion to GM in 1996, Sabean served one season as the clubs senior vice president,
player personnel in 1995 and enjoyed a three-year stint as assistant to the general manager and vice
president of scouting/player personnel. Prior to joining the Giants, Sabean played a vital role in developing
the Yankees farm system into one of baseballs
finest. During his eight-year tenure with the
Yankees, he held several positions of increasing
responsibility, including director of scouting
from 1986-90 and vice president of player
development/scouting from 1990-92.
(1950-2012, min. 10 seasons; 1,000 wins)

High School in 1974 and Eckerd College (St. Rank Name

Bumgarner

> On June 12 vs. Houston, struck out 12 batters (one


shy of his career-high) in 7.2 innings and launched
the Giants first home run in nearly a month in a 6-3
winled off the third inning by hitting a solo home
run off of RHP Bud Norris to left field for his first
career home run.
> Became just the third Giants pitcher since 1900 to hit
a home run and strike out at least a dozen batters
Juan Marichal accomplished the feat on Sept. 12,
1963 at New York-NL (HR, 13 Ks) and so did Mike
Krukow on Aug. 13, 1985 vs. Houston (HR, 12 Ks).
> Took a no-hitter into the sixth inning of his start on
June 28 vs. Cincinnati, but allowed a leadoff single
to Ryan Hanigan to start the 6th, his only hit allowed
in what was his first career complete game and his
first shutout in SFs 5-0 winextended the Giants
team scoreless streak to 36.0 innings and put the
Giants in the record books as it was the teams
fourth-consecutive shutout, a new franchise record.
> Hit his second career home run on Sept. 11 at
Colorado, hitting a three-run shot off of Jhoulys
Chacin in the 4th inningbecame the first Giants
pitcher to hit a home run while driving in at least
three runs since Noah Lowry did so on Aug. 24, 2007.
> Won his 16th game of the season on Sept. 22 vs. San
Diego making him and Hall of Famer Rube Marquard
the only Giants pitchers with 16-or-more wins in a
season at 23 or younger in Giants franchise history
Marquard did it three years in a row: 24-7 in 1911, 26-11
in 1912 and 23-10 in 1913.
> Signed a five-year extension through 2017 with a club/
vesting option for 2018 and a club option for 2019 on April
6...the 5-year extension covers Bumgarner through his
arbitration years and his first year of free agency (2017).

Bumgarner

> Registered double-digit strikeouts in four starts, with a


career-high 13 punchouts on Sept. 5 at San Diego.
> Went 8-6 with a 3.12 ERA (36er, 104.0ip) in 17 starts at
AT&T Park...began the year by going 0-5 with a 5.82 ERA
(22er, 34.0ip) in his first seven starts on the Shores of
McCovey Cove, however turned things around and went
8-1 with a 1.80 figure (14er, 70.0ip) in his last 10 starts.
> Started the season by losing his first six decisions from
April 5-May 13, logging a 4.25 ERA (20er, 42.1ip) during
that span...received two runs-or-fewer of support in all but
one of those games.
> Prior to Bumgarner, the last pitcher to go winless with at
least two losses through his first eight starts with an ERA
of 4.25-orlower was the Cubs Juan Cruz in 2002...the last
Giants pitcher to have such a start to the season was Terry
Mulholland in 1986 (0-6, 3.89 ERA).
> Lost eight of his first 10 decisions despite posting a 3.23
ERA...no other starting pitcher in Giants history had lost
eight of his first 10 decisions with an ERA as low
as Bumgarners.
> Endured his worst start of his career and one of worst in
Giants history on June 21 vs. Minnesota...recorded just
one out while allowing eight 1st inning runs...faced 10
batters and retired only pitcher Carl Pavano, becoming the
first player in baseballs modern era to allow as many as
nine hits while recording fewer than two outs.
> Became the first Giants starting pitcher since 1900 to
allow eight-or-more runs without getting out of the 1st
inning.
> Bounced back from a historically dreadful outing to record
11 strikeouts in his next start on June 26 vs. Cleveland in
SFs 3-1 victory on ESPNs Sunday Night Baseball...tossed
7.0 innings, allowing one run to earn the win.
> Following that start in Cleveland, was one of baseballs
best pitchers for the final three months of the regular
season, going 10-4 with a 2.62 ERA (35er, 120.1ip) over his
final 18 starts...his 2.62 ERA beginning June 26 ranked as
the ninth-lowest in the big leagues while his 10 victories
were tied for the fourth-most.
> Issued two walks-or-fewer in 19-consecutive starts from
April 17-July 24...became the first Giants pitcher to
accomplish that feat since Juan Marichal went 21-straight
starts between July 17, 1970-April 20, 1971, allowing two
walks-or-fewer...Marichal is the only other SF Giant to do
this in a single season as went 23-straight starts between
April 10-July 18, 1968 (STATS, Inc.).
> Recorded back-to-back double-digit strikeout games Aug.
31 (11 Ks vs. CHC) and Sept. 5 (13 Ks at SD), becoming the
first Giants left-hander in the modern era (1900 to date)
with consecutive starts of more than 10 Ks.

Rare All-Rookie Battery


On Oct. 31, 2010 in Game 4 of the World
Series at Texas, Madison Bumgarner and
Buster Posey became the first all-rookie
starting battery in a World Series game
since Spec Shea and Yogi Berra started for
the Yankees in Game 1 of the 1947 World
Series.

> His 13 strikeout performance on Sept. 5 at San Diego not


only was career-best, but he became one of only five lefthanders in SF-era history (since 1958) to record 13-or-more
strikeouts in a game...Atlee Hammaker owns the Giants
record with 14 punchouts on Sept. 11, 1983.
> Finished the season by winning six of his last seven
decisions while fashioning a 1.58 ERA (8er, 45.2ip) in
seven starts.

2010
> Went 7-6 with a 3.00 ERA (37er, 111.0ip) while
posting 86 strikeouts and issuing only 26 walks in 18
starting assignments with the Giants.
> Was one of the most consistent Giants starters since
being recalled towards the end of June, logging at least
6.0 innings in 12 of his 18 starts and 7.0 innings nine
timesrecorded 11 quality outings.
> Since his recall on June 26, posted the fourth-lowest ERA
among National League left-handed starters, behind
HOUs Wandy Rodriguez (2.14), PHIs Cole Hamels (2.57)
and LADs Clayton Kershaw (2.64).
> His 3.00 ERA was the third-lowest in SF-era history for a
rookie pitcher behind Jim Barr (2.87 in 1972) and John
Montefusco (2.88 in 1975) (min. of 15 starts).
> Between triple-A Fresno and Giants, combined to pitch
193.2 innings, which was a career-high in his brief threeyear professional career...prior to 2010, his career-high in
innings was 141.2 in 2008 with Augusta.
> Earned his first Major League victory July 6 in Milwaukee
after tossing 8.0-scoreless innings and allowing only three
hits in SFs 6-1 win...according to Elias, only two other
Giants rookies pitched a game like that: Noah Lowry in
2004 when he tossed 9.0-shutout frames against the Reds
on Aug. 3 and Matt Cain, who accomplished it twice in
2006, tossing 9.0-scoreless innings at Oakland on May 21
and blanking Colorado for 8.0 innings on Sept. 14.
