Okay, so I’ve been digging into Matt Williams’ time with the San Francisco Giants, and let me tell you, it’s been a bit of a rabbit hole. Here’s what I did and how it went.
Started with a Basic Search
First, I just did the regular search engine thing. You know, typed in “sf giants matt williams” and see what pops up. I got the usual stuff – his player profile, some stats, basic info. Nothing groundbreaking, but it’s a good starting point.
Checked the Stats
Then I focused on the stats. I wanted to see his actual performance numbers during his time with the Giants. So I looked at his batting average, home runs, RBIs, all that good stuff. I went from year to year, comparing how he did.
Read Old News Articles
- I found some old newspaper articles. I tried to get a sense of what people were saying about him at the time. Was he popular? Was he living up to expectations?
- I had some trouble finding some newspapers.
Compared with Other Players
I also started comparing him to other Giants players from that era. You know, how did he stack up against guys like Barry Bonds? It gives you some context, right?
Looked for Highlights
I did some looking for the best moments. Those big home runs, clutch hits, that kind of thing.
Summarized My Findings
After all that digging, I started putting it all together. I tried to paint a picture of his Giants career, start to finish. What were the high points? The low points? What kind of legacy did he leave behind?
It was a fun process, going back and researching a player like that. Makes you appreciate the history of the team a little more.
