Home Team: The Turbulent History of the San Francisco GiantsIn 1957 Horace Stoneham took his Giants of New York baseball team and headed west, starting a gold rush with bats and balls rather than pans and mines.

In 1957 Horace Stoneham took his Giants of New York baseball team and headed west, starting a gold rush with bats and balls rather than pans and mines. But San Francisco already had a team, the Seals of the Pacific Coast League, and West Coast fans did not immediately embrace the newcomers. Starting with the franchise's earliest days and following the team up to recent World Series glory, Home Team chronicles the story of the Giants and their often topsy-turvy relationship with the city of San Francisco. Robert F. Garratt shines light on those who worked behind the scenes in the story of West Coast baseball: the politicians, businessmen, and owners who were instrumental in the club's history. Home Team presents Stoneham, often left in the shadow of Dodgers owner Walter O'Malley, as a true baseball pioneer in his willingness to sign black and Latino players and his recruitment of the first Japanese player in the Major Leagues, making the Giants one of the most integrated teams in baseball in the early 1960s. Garratt also records the turbulent times, poor results, declining attendance, two near-moves away from California, and the role of post-Stoneham owners Bob Lurie and Peter Magowan in the Giants' eventual reemergence as a baseball powerhouse. Garratt's superb history of this great ball club makes the Giants' story one of the most compelling of all Major League franchises.Purchase the audio edition.

Don’t worry about the smell!
Color: Carbonized, Size: 3-piece
These are great for the price, though I’ve never had any desire or need to use the smallest one. They smell strongly of BBQ at first, but from what I’ve read that’s a natural result of a heat treatment used to increase it’s durability and dark color (the heat cooks the sugars in the bamboo which creates the scent). Anyways, I’ve had them for awhile
now and the scent is long gone.

Perfect Fit Plastic Drawer Organizer with Great Value
Color: Black, Size: Medium (8.5-14''W x 12''D)
I previously used a wooden drawer organizer, but when opening and closing the drawers, forks and other utensils would sometimes hit the wood, and I later noticed wood particles accumulating, which surprised me. Because of that, I started looking for a plastic material instead.
This product is expandable in width, so it fits perfectly inside my drawer with no extra gaps, which alone makes it very easy to use.
It also has seven compartments, allowing me to organize items in a very detailed and practical way.
For the price, the quality is honestly impressive. I can confidently recommend it.
