Ep. 48, Part 1: Bertha Fajardo's Life as a Baseball Fan (Part of Our SF Giants at 60 Series)

Bertha Fajardo grew up going to games at both Candlestick Park and the Oakland Coliseum. Her dad and uncles got her started, but her love of the game survived her teenage years, and in 1997, she got a job with the Giants. In her role as manager of Community and Family Programs, Bertha oversees much of the charitable work that current and former Giants players and their families are involved in. ​In this episode, Bertha takes us through her life, both as a baseball fan, and more recently, as someone whose entire career has been with the sport. Check back Thursday for Part 2, when Bertha will go into more detail about the work she's done with the San Francisco Giants. We recorded this podcast at AT&T Park in August 2018.
