Why David Bell won't ever forget his Giants days even as Reds manager

Editor’s note: “As Told To Amy G” will feature exclusive conversations with Giants staff and players, as well as interesting figures around Major League Baseball, throughout the 2019 season. Second in the series: Former Giants player and executive David Bell, who’s entering his first season as Cincinnati Reds manager.

For a guy who only played in San Francisco for only one season (2002) and worked with the organization only one year as the vice president of player development (2018), David Bell might be one of the most beloved Giants of the modern era.

That’s saying a lot when you consider with whom he played -- Barry Bonds, Jeff Kent and Jason Schmidt, to name a few.
