Inspired by the book Few and Chosen: Defining Giants Greatness Across the Eras by Giants great Bobby Thomson and Phil Pepe, I thought I would devote my nickname meme to Giants players for the past several months. This is the end of the string.
Last month I wrote about right-handed relief pitcher Hoyt "Sarge" Wilhelm. This month I was going to write about a left-handed Giants relief pitcher. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any with a good nickname. Jeremy Affeldt certainly deserves one.
Instead I will write about another right-handed Giants relief pitcher Greg Minton, the Moon Man. He made the Giants a lot more fun in the 1980s.
