Ten Thousand Wins
I turned on the radio earlier this evening when I saw that the Giants had a 4-3 lead over the Dodgers going into the bottom of the ninth. They held on to win the game, a good way to start out the second half of the season. But there was a milestone reached as well. With this win, the Giants are the first North American major league sports team to reach 10,000 wins over the franchise’s history. Granted, I think this dates back to 1885 when the New York Gothams became the New York Giants, and it’s been 51 years since the team has won a World Series, but here’s to the next ten thousand!
