95.7 The Game is doing their Bay Area Mount Rushmore sports moments which made me think of trying to get some discussion going in here during no baseball.
What are you four Mount Rushmore San Francisco Giants moments?

Didn't think or research at all, just went with my gut:
Edgar Renteria's 2010 World Series game 5 home run
Madison Bumgarner coming out of the bullpen and getting the save in game 7 of the '14 World Series
Buster Posey's grand slam off Mat Latos in the 2012 NLDS
Michael Morse's pinch hit home run off Pat Neshek in game 5 of the '14 NLCS / Travis Ishikawa's game winning home run off Michael Wacha in game 5 of the '14 NLCS
Bumgarner's Game 7 outing and Ishikawa's NLCS walk off are definitely on there for me as well.
The others I'll go with are...
Bonds' 756th home run
Matt Cain's perfect game
Will Clarks single in Game 5 of the 1989 NLCS drove Candlestick nuts. It's worth an Honorable mention, that got us into the 1989 WS.
I proceeded to get so drunk after the game I had to sleep on my buddies couch about by the marina, get up about 3 am and drive to Modesto, SS&S and pack, drive back to SFO and fly to Chicago for Business ( also had tickets to games 6 and 7).

That Jonathan Sanchez triple vs. the Padres in game 162 of 2010 was pretty tight. Was a big sign of "maybe this is our year".

My big "game I didn't go to but was close to" regret is game 1 of the 2012 World Series. Found upper reserved seats for somewhere between $100-200 online day of game but opted to pass since it was Zito vs. Verlander, which seemed prime for a not so fun to watch *** whooping by Detroit.
We all know how that turned out though....I was kicking myself harder and harder after each Sandoval home run.
I pulled the trigger on those for the same location and price range you described. Got there right at the start of the bottom of the 1st. I still have the ticket, though it's a print out. Did you go to Game 2?
I had tickets to the Petit near perfect game and went out with friends instead. I was so relieved when he didn't get it. I would've never forgiven myself.
756.
Renteria.
Cain PG.
Bumgarner game 7.
