Longtime sports photographer Brad Mangin teams up with Buster Posey himself in this visual celebration of the star catcher’s twelve seasons with the San Francisco Giants. Packed with over 150 photographs, 28: A Photographic Tribute to Buster Posey captures Buster’s entire career, from the first time he stepped foot onto the field for the Giants back in 2009 all the way to his final at-bat in 2021.
With an introduction by sportswriter and radio host Brian Murphy, along with essays from Buster and his teammates, managers, and other sports luminaries—including Mike Krukow & Duane Kuiper, Bruce Bochy, Matt Cain, Brandon Crawford, Gabe Kapler, Hunter Pence, Sergio Romo, Logan Webb, Barry Zito, and Kristen Posey—28 tells the story of Buster’s illustrious career from the heartfelt perspective of those who know him best.

“This book commemorates playing my entire career only as a San Francisco Giant, and that means a lot. It was always very important to me—and people close to me knew—that I never had any intentions of playing on another team.”

“That’s why Brad Mangin and I had to do this book. We had to call his friends and teammates and ask them to frame their memories, their emotions, their historical perspective. We had to do this book so you could see the pictures again, through the years and parades and light shifts at Third and King. Maybe, by doing so, we could keep the memories alive.”
— Brian Murphy
