SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS MISSION STATEMENT

The San Francisco Giants are dedicated to enriching our community
through innovation and excellence on and off the field.

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. Baer joined the
team in 1992 as the executive vice president after he and Peter Magowan
led the effort to assemble a new ownership group and negotiate the sale
that kept the Giants in San Francisco. A limited partner of the ownership
group, Baer was named chief operating officer in May 1996, team president
in October 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. In 2014, the Giants won their third World Series title in five years.
As president and CEO, Baer serves as the club’s “control” person on all
Giants, Major League Baseball and industry issues. Baer is responsible for
the overall day-to-day functioning of the organization. Under his direction
the Giants developed and constructed AT&T Park -- the first privately-financed Major League ballpark.
Since opening in 2000, AT&T Park has been widely praised as one of the “best ballparks ever built.” The
club has received unprecedented fan support – becoming one of only four teams to exceed three million
in attendance eight consecutive years (2000-2007).
Currently, the Giants enjoy the longest active home sellout streak in Major League Baseball of 327
games. With the support of more than 30,000 full season ticket holders, the Giants sold out the 2011,
2012, 2013 and 2014 seasons and welcomed more than 3.3 million fans each year. The Giants have been
the standard bearer in all of baseball for sponsorship revenue, and the ballpark continues to be one of the
most popular venues in the country for special events. In 2008, AT&T Park was named Sports Business
Journal’s Sports Facility of the Year, and in 2011 the Giants received Sports Business Journal’s Professional
Sports Organization of the Year award.
Baer also serves as a key strategist and negotiator of the club’s major business and baseball transac-
tions. This includes the Barry Bonds signing in November 1992, the naming rights agreement with
AT&T (then Pacific Bell) in 1996 and other strategic business partnerships. He led the effort to host
the 2007 All-Star Game in San Francisco and was the driving force behind the Giants partnership with
Comcast to create a regional sports network for the Bay Area.
Baer worked closely with the Giants Baseball department on strategic signings that keep several key
players in Giants uniforms for years to come, including Buster Posey, Matt Cain, Madison Bumgarner
and Hunter Pence.
Baer also serves as President & CEO of Giants Development Services, which is currently developing
Mission Rock – a new, mixed use urban neighborhood located on a 25-acre site across McCovey Cove
from AT&T Park. Once completed, Mission Rock will include more than eight acres of parks and open
space, an Anchor Steam Brewery, 650-1,500 residential units, 1.3 - 1.7 million square feet of office space,
a parking structure to serve ballpark and Mission Rock patrons, and up to 250,000 square feet of retail,
restaurants, and public amenities. The project is currently in the entitlement phase with groundbreaking
projected for 2016.
After earning Phi Beta Kappa honors at the University of California in 1980, Baer joined the Giants
as the club’s 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 a special assistant
to the network’s chairman, Laurence Tisch.
Baer has been the recipient of a number of prestigious awards throughout his career with the Giants.
This includes the San Francisco Distinguished Leadership Award for civic leadership (1996), “Sports
Torch of Learning Award” by the Scopus Society of the American Friends of The Hebrew University
(1995), and the Anti-Defamation League’s Torch of Liberty Award (2001). In 2010, Baer was the named
the “Person of the Year” by San Francisco Boys
and Girls Club, and in 2012 he was honored
as the Harvard Business School’s “Alumnus
of the Year.” In 2014, Baer was honored by

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 Francisco’s Senior Vice President and General
Manager on Sept. 30, 1996. During his 18 years as GM, he has seen the Giants
capture seven post-season berths (including four World Series appearances and
three Championships), with the club having earned more than half of its 11
overall playoff appearances since moving West.
Over the last five seasons, under Sabean’s watch, the Giants have won three
World Series titles, becoming the first team to win three titles in a five-year span since the New York
Yankees won four from 1996-2000.
Since Sabean assumed the GM reins following the 1996 season, the Giants have won three World
Championships (2010, 2012, 2014), four National League pennants (2002, 2010, 2012, 2014), five NL
West Division flags (1997, 2000, 2003, 2010 and 2012), two Wild Card entries (2002, 2014) and forced a
Wild Card tie-breaker game with Chicago in 1998, while posting a 1,556-1,358-1 (.534) mark during that
18-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 Sabean’s tenure. In addition, under Sabean, the Giants are one of only
three teams in the Major Leagues that have been to the World Series four-or-more times since 1997 (also:
Cardinals, four times and Yankees, six times) and are third in the National League with seven post-season
appearances in that span.
In his 23rd year with the organization, and 30th season as a baseball front office executive, the 58 year-
old 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
2012, he was named Baseball America’s Executive of the Year as he stewarded the Giants to their second
World Series Championship in his tenure as General Manager.
Recently under Sabean’s 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 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 baseball’s 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 game’s best players via trades. They have
included Giants’ All-Stars Jeff Kent, Jason Schmidt, Marco Scutaro and Robb Nen, as well as standout per-
formers 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, Javier Lopez, Jake Peavy, Hunter Pence, Freddy Sanchez 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, four-time All-Star Tim Hudson in 2013 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 club’s 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 baseball’s
finest. During his eight-year tenure with the
Yankees, he held several positions of increasing
responsibility, including Director of Scouting
All-Time Winningest
from 1986-90 and Vice President of Player
Development/Scouting from 1990-92.

Dick Tidrow
Vice President and Assistant General Manager, Player PERSONNEL
A former American League Rookie Pitcher of the Year and 13-year Major
League veteran, Dick Tidrow embarks on his 22nd year overall with the club.
Tidrow has had an integral role in helping the organization win three World
Series titles over the last five seasons.
An invaluable aide to Brian Sabean, Tidrow came to the organization
prior to the 1994 campaign, serving as the club’s Major League scout for
the American League. He was promoted to Special Assistant to the General
Manager in 1996, and was elevated to Director of Player Personnel prior to the 1997 season. His current
responsibilities include providing Major League player recommendations for trade and free agent sign-
ings, overseeing the Giants’ minor league system and assisting in supervising the First-Year Player Draft.
His judgment for talent, whether acquired or developed through the farm system, can be seen
throughout the roster of the Major League club, as he had a major hand in the teams drafting and
development of Tim Lincecum, Matt Cain, Sergio Romo and Madison Bumgarner. Of the players on the
2014 World Series 25-man roster, 13 were either selected by San Francisco in the June draft or signed
their first professional contract with the Giants.
In addition to the Giants capturing seven post-season berths (including four World Series appear-
ances and three Championships) during Tidrow’s tenure, San Francisco’s farm system owns the highest
winning percentage in baseball over the past eight seasons with a .554 organizational mark, largely due
to Tidrow’s tutelage of the club’s pitching prospects.
Prior to joining the Giants organization, Tidrow served as a special assignment scout with the New
York Yankees from 1985 through 1993. The former right-handed pitcher, nicknamed “Dirt,” enjoyed
parts of 13 years in the Majors from 1972-84. He was honored as The Sporting News A.L. Rookie
Pitcher of the Year as a starter with the Cleveland Indians in 1972, while also capturing pennant and
World Series rings as a reliever with the Yankees in 1976 and ’77, respectively. He later pitched for the
Cubs, White Sox and Mets. His lifetime numbers show a 100-94 record with 55 saves and a 3.68 ERA.
The San Francisco native graduated from Mt. Eden High School in 1965 and Chabot
Junior College in 1967, both located in Hayward. Dick and his wife, Mari Jo, have three
children— Andy, Matt and Richelle—and make their home in Lee’s Summit, MO.

ball players of the 20th century. ESPN listed him as eighth in their ranking of the top 50 athletes
of the century. In 2003, former Governor Gray Davis appointed Willie Mays to the State Board of
Directors of the California African American Museum.
He is the spokesperson for The Institute on Aging in San Francisco as well as the President
and CEO of the Say Hey Foundation, supporting underprivileged youth. He is also a member
of the Concordia Club and has recently re-signed with The Topps Company, Inc., an associa-
tion that began in 1952, that publishes baseball cards. Mays has received honorary degrees from
Dartmouth, Miles College, Ohio State University, San Francisco State and Yale University.
Mays makes his home in Atherton.

Willie McCovey
SENIOR ADVISOR
Willie McCovey, whose Hall of Fame playing career with the San Francisco
Giants spanned four decades, enters his 15th season as senior advisor to
the team.
McCovey, who had hit more home runs (521) than any other left-handed
hitter in National League history before Barry Bonds passed him in 2001,
began his first formal association with the Giants’ current ownership group
in 2000. He had previously made special public appearances on an ad hoc basis for the present
and previous administrations over the past several years, but had not held a formal front office
position with the team since 1986.
In honor of the Hall of Fame great, the portion of San Francisco Bay behind right field at AT&T
Park has been named “McCovey Cove.” In 2003, the Giants unveiled a statue of McCovey at China
Basin Park, which is located across from AT&T Park on the southern shoreline of McCovey Cove.
He was honored during the Home Run Derby during the 2007 All-Star Game festivities.
In his current position, McCovey offers his expertise to Giants players when possible, appear-
ing at Spring Training and during the regular season. He also makes occasional speaking appear-
ances, and performs other valuable functions for the team.
One of the most respected and feared hitters in baseball during his 22-year career in the Majors,
McCovey was a six-time All-Star, ranks second to Lou Gehrig in career grand slams (18) and hit
the most homers (231) ever at Candlestick Park. “Stretch” also established a Major League record
for most seasons played (22) as a first baseman. In addition, he became the fifth player in MLB
history to earn back-to-back home run and RBI titles, hitting 36 homers and driving in 105 runs in
1968 and then capturing NL Most Valuable Player honors with 45 home runs and 126 RBI in 1969.
McCovey, 77, has made an on-field appearance at the close of every season—with the excep-
tion of a few recent years due to his knee ailments—to present the Willie Mac Award. The only
Giants award ever named after a former player, the Willie Mac Award was established in 1980 and
is given to the Giants player who best exemplifies the spirit and leadership consistently shown by
McCovey throughout his career.
Orlando Cepeda
Community Ambassador
Orlando Cepeda, who was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1999,
is recognized nationally for his humanitarian efforts as an ambassador for base-
ball and the San Francisco Giants. He begins his 20th season as a community
representative for the team and is a member of the Giants Community Fund
Advisory Board.
In his current role, the “Baby Bull” visits hospitals, senior centers and
inner-city schools in the Bay Area and throughout the United States, speaking
to “at-risk” children about the dangers of drugs and alcohol. The 77-year-old Ponce, P.R. native also
serves as the honorary spokesman for the Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation of America and the Curry
Senior Center.
A lifetime .297 hitter with 379 home runs and 1,364 RBI during his 17-year playing career with
the Giants, Cardinals, Braves, A’s, Red Sox and Royals, Cepeda hit a home run against the Dodgers in
his very first Major League game April 15, 1958. He went on to win 1958 Rookie of the Year honors,
the 1966 Comeback Player of the Year award, the 1967 NL Most Valuable Player trophy and 1973
Designated Hitter of the Year laurels. He appeared in three World Series, was a six-time All-Star and
hit over .300 nine times in his career.
On July 25, 1999, Cepeda was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame during ceremonies in
Cooperstown, NY. He became only the second Puerto Rico native to enter the Hall, joining the late
Roberto Clemente. Two weeks earlier on July 11, 1999, Cepeda had his uniform No. 30 retired by the
Giants during ceremonies at Candlestick Park. As one of the 10 players in the Giants’ 123-year history
to have their jersey number retired, he joins Willie Mays, Willie McCovey, Juan Marichal and Gaylord
Perry as the only five San Francisco players to receive such an honor.
In 1993, the Baby Bull was also inducted into the Puerto Rico Sports Hall of Fame, while in 1999,
he was elected to the Missouri Sports Hall of Fame for his great years with the St. Louis Cardinals
which followed his tenure with the Giants. In 2004, he was one of four men to receive the Major
League Baseball Players Alumni Association’s Achievement Awards, the MLBPAA’s highest alumni
honor. He was joined by Jim Bunning, Al Kaline and the late Roger Maris.
Orlando and his wife, Miriam, reside in Fairfield. They have five sons--Orlando, Jr., Hector, Carl,
Malcolm and Ali Manuel.

Lon Simmons
Hall of Fame broadcaster and local legend Lon Simmons rejoined the Giants in
2006, serving in a capacity as a community ambassador. In his current duties,
Simmons visits San Francisco during selected homestands as well as during the
off season.
One of the original voices of the San Francisco Giants, the 2004 Ford Frick
Award winner originally teamed with fellow Hall of Famer Russ Hodges to form
arguably the finest broadcast team in sports history in 1958 to kick off the first
of three different stints in the Giants broadcast booth (1958-73, ‘76-78 and ‘96-2002) that spanned 23
seasons.
The man with the trademark “Tell It Goodbye” home run call retired after the 2002 season and was
inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, NY in the summer of 2004.
Will Clark
Longtime Giants icon Will Clark joined the Giants front office in January 2009
as a community ambassador. In his role, the six-time All-Star first baseman rep-
resents the organization at various in-season and off-season community events
in San Francisco. He also attends the Giants Spring Training Camp in Scottsdale,
Arizona and visits one of the Giants’ minor league teams each year.
Clark, who brings the experience of a 15-year Major League playing career
to the Giants, previously worked as an advisor to the Arizona Diamondbacks’
coaching staff in spring training from 2004-2008.
Drafted by the Giants in the first round (second overall pick) of the 1985 June draft, Clark spent his
first eight big league seasons in a San Francisco uniform, compiling a .299 batting average with 176 home
runs and 709 RBI in 1,160 games.
One of the best clutch hitters of his time, Clark hit over .300 on 10 occasions. In 1988, he became
the first Giants player to drive in 90 or more runs in consecutive seasons since Bobby Murcer in 1975-
76. He had one of his finest seasons in 1989, when he batted .333 with 111 RBI, and finished second in
the NL Most Valuable Player voting to Giants teammate Kevin Mitchell. He was however named MVP
of the ’89 NLCS, after batting .650 with a pair of homers and eight RBI, helping San Francisco defeat
Chicago four-games-to-one.
One of the premier first basemen in the National League during his time with San Francisco, Clark
was also an outstanding defensive player, winning a Rawlings Gold Glove in 1991.
The New Orleans, LA native owned a .303 lifetime average with 284 home runs and 1,205 RBI over
1,976 career games for the Giants (1986-1993), Rangers (1994-98), Orioles (1999-2000) and Cardinals
(2000).
Clark, who was a two-time All American at Mississippi State University, was the winner of the
Golden Spikes Award as the country’s top collegiate player in 1985, hitting .420 with 25 home runs and
77 RBI in 65 games. He was inducted into the College Baseball Hall of Fame in 2006 and was inducted
into the Mississippi Sports Hall of Fame in 2008.
He resides in Prairieville, LA with his wife, Lisa, and their son, Trey, and daughter, Ella.

Dave Dravecky
Community ambassador
Former San Francisco Giant pitcher Dave Dravecky currently serves as a

community ambassador for the team. In his role, Dave represents the orga-
nization at a number of community and sponsor events in San Francisco and
the Bay Area. He also attends Giants Spring Training Camp in Scottsdale,
Arizona, and enjoys representing the organization all over Northern
California at various speaking engagements and alumni appearances.
Dave was an All-Star with the San Diego Padres in 1983, and was traded to the Giants in 1987.
Winner of the 1989 Willie Mac Award, Dave’s story is both touching and inspiring. After discov-
ering a cancerous tumor in his pitching arm in October of 1988, Dave battled back and returned
to the majors in August of 1989. After winning his first start, his humerus bone snapped just five
days later while throwing a pitch in the 6th inning. The doctors discovered another mass in his
left arm, and Dravecky was forced to retire from baseball. After two more surgeries in the next two
years, Dave’s left arm and shoulder were amputated.
Dave is currently a Christian motivational speaker, author, and proud grandfather. Dave and
his wife Jan recently moved back to California to be closer to their family and the two-time World
Series Champion San Francisco Giants.
Jeffrey Leonard
Community ambassador
Jeffrey Leonard joined the San Francisco Giants front office as a Community
Ambassador prior to the 2014 season. In his role, the two-time All-Star out-
fielder represents the organization at various in-season and offseason com-
munity events in San Francisco. He also attends the Giants Spring Training
Camp in Scottsdale, Arizona to attend several organizational events.
Leonard, a 14-year Major League veteran played for the Giants from
1981-88, compiling a .275 batting average with 139 doubles, 24 triples, 99 home runs and 435
RBI in 789 games. His .275 average as a Giant ranks ninth in the SF-era record books and his 115
stolen bases rank seventh.
Nicknamed “HacMan” after the popular video game PacMan, Leonard was known for his “one
flap down” routine, running around the bases after hitting a home run with one arm hanging
motionless at his side. He had one of his finest seasons in 1987, when he batted .280 with 19
home runs and was named to the National League All Star team. He was named MVP of the ’87
NLCS, after batting .417 with four homers and five RBI, despite San Francisco losing the series to
St. Louis four-games-to-three.
The Philadelphia, PA native owned a .266 lifetime average with 144 home runs, 614 runs
scored and 723 RBI over 1,415 career games for the Dodgers (1977), Astros (1978-81), Giants
(1981-1988), Brewers (1988) and Mariners (1989-90).
Leonard, who currently lives in Roseville, CA, is heavily involved in raising funds for breast
cancer research. He has his own organization, “One Flap Down Foundation,” centered around
promoting awareness and finding a cure for breast cancer.
