After winning the 2010 World Series the Giants failed to make the postseason in 2011. The struggles continued in 2012, as every Giants success-the return of Buster Posey, Matt Cain s perfect game-was countered by a trying setback-star closer Brian Wilson's season-ending injury, Cy Young winner Tim Lincecum's confounding struggles, breakout star Melky Cabrera's suspension.
Many so-called experts wrote the Giants off, especially after the rival Dodgers pulled off the biggest blockbuster trade in history. But the Giants players banded together and the fans never lost faith, and the Giants steamrolled through September, proving that individual statistics are no match for team chemistry.
Never was this more evident than in the postseason. When the going got tough, the tough got Giant, winning six elimination games en route to a highly anticipated clash with the favored Tigers. The Giants romped, sweeping the Series in decisive and dramatic fashion to win their second World Series in three years.
One Common Goal is the Giants official treasury of the historic 2012 season. Presented through the insights of players, broadcasters, and executives who lived the dream firsthand, this is the one must-have commemorative for Giants fans who believed in the unthinkable and long to look back on a season that can only be explained as destiny calling.
