    I remember coming home, sitting down with my family and watching our October. Nothing ever moved us quite like those seasons. Our 9ers had faded away, our Giants were the best in baseball because we put pitching first. I recall Matt Caines perfect game like gospel. I recall Sergio Romos slider. Timmies fastball. Wilsons fastball. Zitos 12/6 curve. Javi's submarine delivery. What felt incredible was our dominance. It was like the league had no answer for what people thought were lowly Giants. There was a buzz in the bay around these guys. We came up with nicknames. The stories told themselves. It remains our story. My Giants hang their hats on 5 years of success. We will always try to cement further, our dominance. The best way we know how. Pitching first. Perry would be proud. Mathewson would be enthralled.

    I was at that game with my dad, when the Giants clinched the division on the last game of the year vs. the Padres. Jonathan Sanchez hitting a triple was the highlight!

    As a Giants fan, I will forever cherish the Even Year Dynasty!!!
    I’m so happy my Grandpa got to see them win in 2010 before he passed the following year.
    What made them special was the fact that they were ultimately not an expensive team nor a 100 win team, just a bunch of heroes who absolutely refused to lose. A Band of MiSFits!
    A true underdog team like we see in the movies.
    To win three World Series in five years is a tough feat that very few teams can accomplish besides the Yankees.
    People often forget how good they were during this run especially in 2012, they had All-Stars, great moments in the regular season and extremely clutch playoff performances.
    But I think what frustrates a lot of people is that the Giants beat teams like the Rangers and Tigers who had the makings of a Dynasty.
    I’ll forever grateful for this Giants era and getting to see them when three World Series on even years.
    Thank you, Bruce Bochy

    Does a dynasty only use championships as a measuring stick? Because if so, then yes, the Giants are the last "dynasty". But if you ask me, domination in the regular season should count for something as long as one of those teams gets a ship. That's why we constantly talk about the Braves being the "Team of the 90's" despite only 1 ring.
    I think of the Astros and Dodgers as dynasties; if NY wins a ring, I'd consider them as well.

    Dynasty is a very undefined term. One man's dynasty is another's trash. Astros won AL in 2017, 19, 21, and 22. They won WS in 2017 and 22. Is that a dynasty? How about whatever LA is doing currently. WS in 2017, 18, 20, and 24. Dave Roberts has presided over all of it and retooled that team with many new players year over year.
