Everything seemed so surreal, watching this journey of the underdogs San Francisco Giants strive to get into the playoffs trailing the Padres most of September. Then coming to the postseason where every sport analysis chose the opponent to win but us Giants shocked the world. Beating the Braves 3-1 in NLDS, destroying Phillie's outstanding pitchers with the help of Cody Ross the Boss, and coming to Texas as runner ups and straight murking them was... incredible. The feeling was crazy! Everywhere you went in the bay area, you'd see people having Giants attire on. Black and Orange everywhere! It brought a great spirit to San Francisco and it was well deserved after waiting 56 years for another ring. Torture indeed.
This series against the Texas Rangers were due to our pitchers/bullpen; they were phenomenal... I don't know one night they were off. Tim Lincecum in Game 1 and 5 lived up to his name "The Freak"; he killed it with 10 K's in game 5, Matt Cain was superb in Game 2 (9-0) as he did not allow an earned run, Game 3 Jonathan Sanchez pitched decent but the early runs got into his head which resulted in our only loss, Game 4 Madison Bumgarner the rook pitched another shut out (4-0) to embarrass the fans at Arlington. But you'd have to thank Edgar Renteria the frog for being so clutch in the World Series, thank goodness for Bruce Bochy's lineups. Without a doubt this was a team effort, everybody contributed to get here and get things done. The reaction of the players were so uplifting, the team chemistry was something to be proud of. All the hugging, jumping around and champagne popping during the ceremonies made me so happy to be a fan. Excuse my language but #FUCKYEAH #SFGIANTS #WORLDSERIESCHAMPS #THEFREAK
There's so much more to say! But forget it, you guys get the deal! We won in the World Series! Go Giants!
