About the Trophy (Commissioners Trophy)
"The Commissioner's Trophy is a trophy presented each year by the Commissioner of Baseball to the MLB team that wins the World Series. Recent trophy designs contain flags representing each team in North America's top two leagues, the National League and the American League. The two participating teams in that year's World Series were previously represented by two press pins set on the base of the trophy. It is the only championship trophy of the major professional sports leagues in the United States and Canada in North America that is not named after a particular person."

ABout the 3 World Series wins:
The San Francisco Giants won the World Series in 2010, 2012 and 2014
"the San Francisco Giants won the World Series for the third time in five years in 2014, becoming the first team since the late-1990s Yankees to win that many championships in that short a span. It's a feat that's both impressive and historically significant. Depending on how you divide them up, one could say that fewer than 10 teams in World Series history have had comparable or superior runs of success, putting the 2010s Giants among the greatest teams in major league history."

Visit Instructions:
Please take a photo of the award and describe your experience. If it is particularly large trophy or cup include a photo with yourself for scale.
Special note regarding schools: Public secondary schools are public places, and they often include public displays of trophies, medals and cups; however, security concerns might make it difficult to visit these locations at certain times. The best time to visit is probably during an athletic competition. The trophy case is very often adjacent to the gymnasium, and it would be very easy to photograph the trophies at such times. Alternately, you may visit during the school day. Respect school policy and sign in at the office as appropriate. You might explain that you heard that there was a national championship trophy on display somewhere in the school and you would like to photograph it. The secretary will likely direct you down the correct hallway, pleased as punch that people still care about that old championship.
