A former employee of the Giants, convicted late last year of wire fraud as part of a scheme to embezzle funds from the team, was sentenced to 21 months in prison and ordered to play 1.4 million.
Robin M. O'Connor, who worked as the club's payroll manager, transferred 2.2 million into her personal bank account, according to court records.
Monday she tearfully apologized to family, friends and the team.

The judge ordered O'Conner to pay more than 1.4 million to the Giants and forfeit two cars prosecutors say she bought with the stolen money. She previously paid back 960,000.
O'Connor, 42, processed payroll for Giants employees, including players, and was responsible for making changes to amounts of money sent to employees' bank accounts.
Giants executives confronted O'Connor last July after being notified by Bank of America that she was applying for a loan and had recently received two large deposits from the Giants.
According to court documents, she admitted to the embezzlement and was immediately fired. She was charged in federal court July 7.
