The Giants Wall of Fame, to be unveiled before the final Giants homestand of the year on September 23 at 4PM, will honor all SF Giants who played at least nine seasons for the team, or a minimum of five seasons with one All-Star selection. The Wall will consist of a bronze plaque for each player and will line AT&T park along King Street.
According to the press release, as of Opening Day of this season, 43 players qualified, and thus will serve as the charter members of the Wall of Fame. Many are expected to be on hand for the unveiling ceremony.
Pure Editor Speculation: Why nine years? Probably so that Orlando Cepeda could be included.
