It took them 10 Innings but what another Run for the 2012 MLB World Champion SF Gigantes. Look at these Hurdles before the Chip....

Starting Rotation is 5-Star led by Matt Cain
A Healthy Back Stop in Buster Posey
Lose Closer Brian Wilson to 2nd Tommy John Surgery
Lincecum has his Worst Year in Career
Overcame Dodger Blockbuster Trade Deadline Deals
Battled the Dodgers for the NL West until Mid-September
Down 3-1 to Red Legs and win all 3 in Cincy to clinch NLDS

Down 3-1 to Redbirds in NLCS and win Game 5 in STL and Win 6 & 7 to get 2012 NL Pennant

Sweep the 2012 AL Pennant Winners Detroit Tigers 4-0 to capture 2nd Title in 3 Seasons.

1954 NY Baseball Giants in the POLO Grounds with the "Say Hey Kid" Willie Mays...now 2010 and 2012 in AT&T Park Fall Classic Titles....

Skipper Bruce Bochy and GM Brian Sabean are Two of the Best in the Show at their Respective Positions...

Gigantes Hot Corner "Kung Fu Panda" Pablo Sandoval aka PANDA SMASH (pictured right) is 2012 Fall Classic MVP....

The Series was won and lost at the Dish with the Giants Starters shutting down the Tigers Hitters notably th 2012 AL Triple Crown Winner Miggy Cabrera and the Prince of the D...Prince Fielder. Not saying its all their Fault but they carried the Offensive Load all Season so inn turn they should carry it in the Post Season and failed to do so. It wasn't all on them look at what the Tigers hit for the 2012 Fall Classic as a Team:

TIGERS' Hitting 15/91 .165 Avg, 3 Runs, 2 Doubles, 1 Big Fly, 9 Free Passes, and 24 K's

GIGANTES' Hitting 32/132 .242 Avg, 16 Runs, 4 Doubles, 2 Triples, 4 Big Flies, 9 Free Passes, 41 K's

The Giants in those 4 Games had an additional 41 Extra At-Bats....

The Tigers only score 3 Runs in 4 Games...Gigantes 16 Runs scored

Tigers get 3 X-Base Hits..Gigantes get 10 X-Base Hits including 4 of those via the Big Fly....Tigers only get 1 Big Fly...

In a Nutshell the Gigantes Pitchers pitched better than the Tigers Pitchers. In a Series where both Teams are hitting the Tigers Pitching Stats are Darn Good if the Tigers were able to score Runs but they were not.

Congrats to the 2012 Fall Classic and MLB World Champion SG Giants and Gigantes Nation...Tear Da Club Up!
