Quick side note — Standing in center field after Sunday’s game: a camel. You don’t see that every day.

The animal was one of several on hand for the Giants’ annual Picnic in the Park for season-ticket holders. The team’s most loyal fans also got autographs from a host of Giants players, played catch on the field, enjoyed games and received raffle prizes.

This weekend was a showcase for how important history is to the Giants’ organization, as they kicked off the three-game set with Dave Dravecky as the Forever Giants Friday guest. It continued on Saturday with the second of three wonderful 50th Anniversary reunions, this one for pitchers and catchers from the San Francisco era. Our associate reporter David Biderman did a story about the event, and I contributed some photos.

On Sunday, the Giants celebrated Humm Baby himself, former Giants manager Roger Craig, who threw out the first pitch. Fans got Humm Baby T-shirts and the scoreboard showed highlights from the ’80s when Craig’s “You Gotta Like These Kids” teams did great things.
