Welcome to Czar’s blog #4 of 2021 – First Place? Yes. Best MLB Team? Yes.

Are the 2021 Giants as Good as they look? Yes, they are.

Start with the basics. 47 and 26 (21 games over .500 after the Angels game) - - the best record in MLB. Couple that with the most home runs in baseball and one of the most effective pitching staffs, and that is a recipe for first place, an exciting summer, a run at the playoffs and (fingers crossed) the postseason. The national scribes have a Giants at a 47% chance at the playoffs (they obviously still believe in the Dodgers and the Padres – and rightfully, there is a lot of baseball left to play). However, I would like to point out that the 1927 Yankees were 43 and 17 on June 22, 1927. Just saying.

The Czar's Blog

Welcome to the Czar’s blog, a regular in-season review of the triumphs, travails and frustrations of our beloved San Francisco Giants. A blog post is published before every home series during the season. We are charter season ticket holders and the firm has four seats behind home plate where we and our friends have viewed masterful achievements, including two World Series, perfect games, no-hitters and walk-off home runs. As a great sage put it:

“…They'll find they have reserved seats somewhere along one of the baselines, where they sat when they were children and cheered their heroes. And they'll watch the game and it'll be as if they dipped themselves in magic waters. The memories will be so thick they'll have to brush them away from their faces. People will come Ray. The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time.” - Field of Dreams
