SAN FRANCISCO -- Stars past and present, from Tim Lincecum to Will Clark, will be on hand for the 16th Annual KNBR 680/Giants Winter FanFest at AT&T Park on Saturday, Feb. 7, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. PT.
Lincecum, the reigning National League Cy Young Award winner, and Clark, who manned first base for the Giants from 1986-93, will be among dozens of players, coaches, alumni and broadcasters who will sign autographs, pose for photos and participate in question-and-answer sessions.

The presence of Clark, a five-time All-Star with the Giants, previews the club's observance of the 20th anniversary of the 1989 NL championship team, which will be honored during the season.

Another highlight of FanFest will be the launch of individual-game ticket sales at the Willie Mays Plaza ticket windows starting at 9 a.m. PT. Tickets also will be available by visiting sfgiants.com, Tickets.com outlets in Northern California and Giants Dugout Stores, or by calling Tickets.com for charge-by-phone service at 877-4SFGTIX.

KNBR will broadcast live during FanFest from a stage at home plate, enabling fans to follow the proceedings from any Lower Box or Club Level seat or watch them live on the Diamond Vision scoreboard in center field and on the many HD flat-panel screens located throughout the ballpark.

Fans again can tour the Giants' and visitors' clubhouses, batting cages, dugouts and press box. Interactive games and activities, a Kids Zone and access to the field's warning track also will be offered.

Giants VIPs scheduled to attend FanFest besides Lincecum and Clark include Jeremy Affeldt, Vida Blue, Bruce Bochy, John Bowker, Emmanuel Burriss, Matt Cain, Orlando Cepeda, Jesse English, Tim Flannery, Dave Flemming, Kevin Frandsen, Mark Gardner, Alex Hinshaw, Steve Holm, Bob Howry, Randy Johnson, Mike Krukow, Duane Kuiper, Carney Lansford, Fred Lewis, Joseph Martinez, Osiris Matos, Jon Miller, Pat Misch, Dave Righetti, Dave Roberts, Ryan Rohlinger, Sergio Romo, Brian Sabean, Billy Sadler, Jonathan Sanchez, Nate Schierholtz, Lon Simmons, J.T. Snow, Jack Taschner, Brian Wilson, Ron Wotus, Keiichi Yabu and Barry Zito.

FanFest admission is free with an option to make a $2 donation to the Giants Community Fund at the door.

FanFest will be preceded by another promotional event in San Jose on Thursday, Feb. 5, from 4:30-7 p.m. PT at the Britannia Arms Downtown San Jose, located at 173 W. Santa Clara St. in the San Pedro Square district.
