Baseball Almanac Top Quote

"He kind of brought the fight back in everybody. Hunter's a pretty easy guy to get on board with when he gets fiery and gets those wide eyes. Without Hunter Pence stepping in and earning the nickname 'The Reverend' that season, I don't know that we have that 2012 ring on our fingers. Before every game we would huddle in the dugout and Hunter would be in the middle, firing us up. We'd throw the sunflower seeds and the gum and everybody would focus on the task at hand — which, obviously, was playing solid baseball. But I think we were able to keep everything in perspective, where the only thing that was important was the next pitch or the next at-bat or the next inning. We kept it very focused on the singular rather than on the big picture." - George Kontos (Haft, Chris. MLB: Giants won't forget 'super motivator' Pence. 27 September 2020.)

In 2013, Hunter Pence took the field in 162 games, setting a new Giants franchise record for most games played (and most games started) by a right-fielder in a season. The previous record in right-field was set originally by Bobby Bonds in 1973 (157 games / 156 starts), and tied by Jose Cruz, Jr. in 2003 (157 games / 151 starts).

In 2014, Hunter Pence took the field in 162 games — again! In the incredible storied history of the Giant franchise, only four players had appeared in 162-or-more games during a season; Jose Pagan (1962), Orlando Cepeda (1962), Willie Mays (1962), and Will Clark (1988), making Pence the first San Francisco Giant / New York Giant with more than one 162-game season!

In 2014, Hunter Pence had 650 at-bats, just the second right-handed hitter from SAN FRANCISCO to reach that plateau, a total not seen since Bobby Bonds had 663 at-bats with the 1970 Giants!

Did you know that when Hunter Pence had a career high twenty-two stolen bases in 2013, he also hit a career high twenty-seven home runs? Too easy? Did you know he was the seventh different player with a 20/20 season in San Francisco, accomplished previously by Orlando Cepeda (1959), Bobby Bonds (1969-1974), Willie Mays (1958-1960), Jeffrey Leonard (1983), Glenallen Hill (1995), and Barry Bonds (1993-1998)?
