SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Hall of Famer Willie McCovey took a break from his hospital-based rehab to attend the San Francisco Giants' World Series victory parade Friday from behind the scenes, thanking all the fans and well-wishers for the support and love through his recent health ordeal. The 76-year-old McCovey said he continues to recover from an infection that hospitalized him in September for about a month, and watching the Giants' third World Series championship run in five years helped his cause. When the hospital didn't always have the games on television, McCovey took to watching on a computer — even if it was agonizing with the updates coming slowly at times. The former first baseman and left fielder, McCovey was a career .270 hitter with 521 home runs and 1,555 RBIs in 22 major league seasons, 19 of them with the Giants.
