The 2007 San Francisco Giants season was the Giants' 125th year in Major League Baseball, their 50th year in San Francisco since their move from New York following the 1957 season, and their eighth at AT&T Park. The team finished in fifth place in the National League West with a 71–91 record, 19 games behind the Arizona Diamondbacks. The Giants also hosted the All-Star Game on July 10. Their season began with the team attempting to return to the post-season for the first time since 2003. New manager Bruce Bochy was hired to help the club improve on a 76 win season in 2006. Giants left fielder Barry Bonds entered 2007 with 21 home runs shy of tying Hank Aaron for most career home runs. On August 7, 2007, Bonds broke the all-time home run record with his 756th career home run and 22nd of the season. The rotation was bolstered by the arrival of Barry Zito, who was signed to the largest contract ever for a pitcher during the off-season. On September 21 it was revealed that Bonds would not return to the team following the 2007 season.Curry Jack Bonds Goes From Out of the Park to Out of a Job https://www.nytimes.com/2007/09/22/sports/baseball/22bonds.html September 22, 2007 September 22, 2007 The New York Times

Historic moments
2007 was a year that had various milestones, whether personal, or historical in terms of team history, or MLB history.
May
On May 7, 2007, Bengie Molina became the first Giant since Willie McCovey in 1977 to hit two home runs in one inning. Ray Durham led off the fifth inning with a walk, and Molina followed the walk with a two-run home run to left field. Rich Aurilia later hit a three-run homer, to make it a six-run inning. Barry Bonds, and Durham then walked, and Molina came up and hit a three-run home run to left-center field, to finish a nine-run inning."Molina's monster fifth powers Giants" Catcher begins and ends nine-run rally with long ballsOctober 2024 medicmedic
Later in May, on Mother's day, the 13th, rookie Fred Lewis hit for the cycle, in his 16th Major League game, becoming only the 22nd Giant to do so. Lewis hit a double in the first inning, leading off the game, and hit his first major league home run, a three-run shot, in the third inning. His triple came in the fifth inning, and he got the last leg of the cycle in the seventh inning. Lewis was the first Giant to hit for the cycle since Randy Winn did it in Cincinnati on Aug 15, 2005. He is only the fourth player in Major League history to hit his first home run as part of a cycle, joining, Cliff Heathcote, Gary Ward, and Luke Scott. Heathcote accomplished this feat on June 13, 1918, Ward on September 18, 1980, and Scott on July 28, 2006. He also became the first left-handed San Francisco Giants batter to hit for the cycle.http://sanfrancisco.giants.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20070513&content_id=1962940&vkey=news_sf&fext=.jsp&c_id=sf "Giants rookie Lewis hits for the cycle" gets two singles, double, triple, homer vs. Rockies June 17, 2008 September 18, 2007 https://web.archive.org/web/20070918064052/http://sanfrancisco.giants.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20070513&content_id=1962940&vkey=news_sf&fext=.jsp&c_id=sf dead
