The Giants just refuse to lose. Royals have to find a way to win two straight at home.

This is a pleasant surprise for Giants fans. Late-inning hits have been hard to come by.

Going to be interesting to see how the Royals respond to this in game 5. Gut feeling is this is series deciding beatdown.

I thought if the Giants could get up 3-2 the series was basically 50-50 going back to KC. Will be interesting to see how the Royals handle the pressure.

I feel pretty good about Bum at home tomorrow, but anything can happen in the playoffs. Peavy and Hudson both scare the **** out of me.

So Bumgarner has given up 1 earned run in his last 4 post-season starts?

Wont anyway.
I haven't payed attention to baseball since 1992 but for some reason my predictions have been spot on this year and my prediction after the play in game was Royals lose one game in the post season and thats game one of the WS.


Nice prediction. You get to sit between momentum guy and dynamics guy.

I was close.
Still not bad for not concerning myself with baseball for 20 years and knowing next to nothing about the game (as a professional game at least). I am very proud of my prediction/homer guess thank you.

There's no point in predicting playoff baseball. It makes no sense. Ever.

Yah, baseball in general makes little sense to me at this point. There are so many odd things going on that i just dont remember happening in the early 1990s.
A page or two ago i had to have someone explain the whole GM/Coach thing because that **** is nothing like NBA or NFL and is just freakin weird.

Doesn't watch baseball for the last 20 years and still roots for the Royals. ALL ABOARD THE BANDWAGON!

how is gm/coach thing different than nba or nfl? gm gets the players, coach coaches the team on the field. it is same in every sport.

Tits and ass, ass and tits.

Oh, baseball too.

Mostly tits though.
