The San Francisco Giants are world champions again as they go into Kansas City needing to win one of two and they win game #2 taking the hardest route. The Royals had their chances vs San Fran starter "Huddy" Tim Hudson and took full advantage. The problem was Royals starter Jeremy Guthrie wasn't any more sharper than "Huddy" and it was left up to the Pens. That was bad news for the Royals and they knew it...
After Tim Hudson's rather eventful 1 2/3 frames giving up two runs on three hits lasted just two more innings the Royals might have been in the winner's circle. Giants skip Bruce Bochy had a quick leash in game 7 with no more games to play until April 2015 and that gave way to Giants reliever Jeremy Affeldt's sparkling 2 1/3 frames of one hit ball. He will be the most important man in this series giving way to the 2K14 "Fight for the Commissioner" M.O.P. Madison "Bum" Bumgarner.
"Bum" goes five frames allowing two hits and striking out four including 1-2-3 frames in the 6th , 7th, and 8th. A performance for the ages as he needed all of that to beat a team in the Kansas City Royals that was not going to be denied.
The Michael Morse single in the 4th with the score tied 2-2 scoring Panda Smash" Sandoval proved to be the game-winner. Both teams score two runs each in the 2nd frame making for some tense game seven drama.
Congrats to the San Francisco Giants 2014 World Champions...Team Bochy and Sabean (Giants Skipper Bruce Bochy and GM Brian Sabean) will be forever linked to one of the greatest runs ever in the show and they are not done wait until 2016!
