1. You're keeping it classy
Nothing about liberal versus conservative. Just baseball, and pulling for one's favorite team. Thanks.

6. I'm sure the Rangers wished Lee would have done this in game 1
This game is going to the wire. If it comes down to bullpens, Giants take it.

45. In defense of Burrell he was key to the World Series win and to getting there
During the season I was at two different games where his home run put the Giants ahead.

They won their division on the last day of the season.

And the other night, he made a terrific catch as he crashed and spun into the wall.

In baseball, you try to put together a group of guys and hope that a few will be "hot" each game.

Everybody is not hot all the time, but Burrell's been part of the mix in the postseason and got hot on offense and defense at key times. He helped us get to that World Series win.

21. Oh. Yay.
That was a quick turnaround.

I'm not watching the game, but was pleased when you posted the SF home run.
Then disappointed when you posted this originally.

:D

The Rangers earnednthe trip to the WS...and it had nothing to do with the shrub.

46. He smiles all the time...he's practically a cut-up
and he's one of the most jovial people when watching a game he's pitching from the dugout.

31. I think this is the best team the Giants have had in more than 30 years.
Maybe since 1971.

And they did it! :woohoo:

40. They're broadcasting to a national audience, that's all.
But bank on it, it's a different story for the Bay Area broadcasters. First time in over 50 years.

Your team dominated the Rangers in this series.

I hope our teams will meet again in the Fall Classic.

48. I have to tag on to that as well
Congrats to the Giants and their fans. I know it's been a long, long time.

Of course, it had been never for our Rangers, so obviously we were hoping for a different outcome. Unfortunately for us, the Giants were the better team this year.

Maybe next season...
