Giants World Series Champs

Giant teammates swarm onto the field after the final out.

The San Francisco Giants are the World Champions for the first time in 56 years. 56 years ago the Giants didn't have the name San Francisco on their uniform, they were the New York Giants. The Giants during the regular season weren't expected to make the playoffs. The Giants during the regular season weren't a considered a stron offensive team. They would win most of their games by only a run or two margin. Most people thought that the Atlanta Braves would beat the underdog Giants, but that didn't happen. The Giants beat the Braves and advanced onto the NLCS, where everyone thought except the Giants fans, would lose to the Phillie's. But in 6 games the Giants beat the Phillies to play the Rangers for the World Series title.

Now moving onto the World Series, everything before mattered because the Giants had won both Series as the Rangers did. The Giants were the diffident under dog coming into the Series, because the Rangers had great pitching and offense, while the Giants hadn't been scoring manyof runs, and their pitching had been pretty lucky. Cliff Lee, the Rangers star pitcher had 9 days rest coming into Game 1 of the Series. All that rest didn't help Cliff Lee, he ended up pitching one of his worst games of the year and the Giants took an early 1-0 Series lead. The Giants never looked back, winning Game 2, losing Game 3, and wining Game's 4 and 5.

Congrats to all the Giants players!
