How about that?
The SF Giants are the 2010 World Series Champions… a team that had no business being in the playoffs 2 months ago, has won the whole damn thing.
The Giants were offensively, the worst team in the playoffs. They beat the Braves which I expected, but the real shocker was beating the Phillies.
How the Giants beat the Phillies is still beyond me. As good as Lincecum, Cain, and Sanchez are, they are no way on the same level as Halladay, Oswalt, and Hamels… Lincecum notwithstanding.
Then in the World Series, they faced off against the Texas Rangers. The Texas Rangers team that shut down the Tampa Bay Rays and then the NY Yankees. The Rangers team that eliminated the two best teams in baseball.
Suddenly the Rangers forgot how to hit and pitch against the SF Giants. The Giants did it with Freddy Sanchez having the best game of his career in Game 1 and with Juan Uribe having an incredible 5 game series. Then there’s Brian Wilson who did his best Mariano Rivera impression.
Congrats SF Giants on a great season!

it has nothing to do with baseball… just an article I find funny.
