ATLANTA — You wouldn't think it based on their all-time record of 29-45-1 here, but the Giants will retain many fond memories of Turner Field.
Bruce Bochy clinched his first NL pennant here, with the 1998 San Diego Padres. The Giants applauded retiring Braves manager Bobby Cox after squeaking past his Atlanta Braves in a 2010 NL Division Series that was a prelude to much greater accomplishments. When Barry Bonds ripped six home runs in a three-game series here in May of 2001, the single-season home run record became an earnest pursuit.And in the Giants' final game in Fulton County, Madison "Tecumseh" Bumgarner laid waste to the Braves' outgoing home.
