After garnering 20 nominations in 12 different categories, the Giants took home four of MLB.com's Greatness in Baseball Yearly Awards on Saturday.
In the 13th annual GIBBYs, Joe Panik won best Postseason Play, Madison Bumgarner was awarded Postseason MVP, Travis Ishikawa claimed best Postseason Walk-Off, and Bruce Bochy was named Manager of the Year.
Panik robbed Royals' Eric Hosmer with an incredible diving stop, coupled with a glove flip, that led to a double play in Game 7 of the World Series.

Bumgarner finished 4-1 with a 1.03 ERA in the 2014 postseason. In the World Series, he was 2-0 with a 0.43 ERA. Bumgarner also became the first pitcher with at least two wins, a shutout and a save in the World Series since the rule became official in 1969.
Ishikawa's memorable walk-off homer in Game 5 of the NLCS against the Cardinals sent the Giants back to the World Series for the third time in five years.
Bochy managed a Giants team that finished 88-74 in the regular season from a Wild Card spot to a Game 7 victory in the World Series.
Entering as two Wild Card teams, the Giants and Royals combined for the fourth-fewest regular season wins by any pair of World Series opponents.
The two other times Bochy won the World Series, his teams finished the regular season at 92-70 (2010) and 94-68 (2012).
Bochy's unconventional decision to play Bumgarner on two days rest in Game 7 of the World Series also paid dividends, and will be remembered as the move of that series.
