    If the Giants win tonight, they will have out-Cardinaled the Cardinals

    I've always had the feeling that if my team is going to lose enroute to the championship, I prefer that team to go on and win it all. That said, in a Giants/Tigers series, I don't have a horse in that race - it could either way. But St. Louis getting in would be too bitter a pill to swallow.

    This will be the sixth elimination game the Giants have played this postseason. Anyone know the record for that?

    If Hunter Pence was on a team I rooted for, he'd drive me nuts.

    Watching Pence is like watching Jim Furyk golf- they get the job done but look as awkward as possible dong it.

    Matt Cain delivers a 2-out single. Giants lead 2-0.

    Giants threatening to add to the lead. They have two runners in scoring position with no outs and the soon-to-be-MVP up to bat.
