My Bucardo is better than yours.

A hot August weekday, before a small crowd, when the only thing at stake is the tissue-thin difference between a thing done well and a thing done ill. Insofar as the clutch hitter is not a sportswriter's myth, it is a vulgarity, like a writer who writes only for money.

Me neither, but I don’t think this can be topped. The long wait plus everything feels right plus it being the first one.

Ah, you should’ve! Though at the time of game 6, the whole family was sick, and I watched the game from my couch, surrounded by cold medicines and boxes of tissues and pots of tea.

My wife was born and raised here, so we come over once a year or so to visit friends and family. This year’s trip was particularly ill-timed. I should’ve had more faith, but it really never occurred to me that there would still be baseball to watch in the last days of October.

everyone was right.

When it’s a series for baseball and not for the money, you know you’ve got something special. Screw ratings with a corked maple bat.

I would have liked to see how your rotation would have looked without the injuries. Honestly, I think Harden would have had a trick or two up his sleeve if he played. Otherwise, the Rangers are still a really scary team, and you guys will be in many postseasons to come.

You guys have such a good, young (younger than us!) team and promise to be a great squad next year as long as you can keep the band together. Though no matter what, you’re definitely back on track.

Thanks for being a class act.

Two things I loved

1) Watching the guys celebrate the last out. It is like watching children win the Little League World Series. These guys never grow up in the best possible way. Made me smile ear to ear.

2) Timmy sticking it to those idiots who kept saying he was the 2nd best pitcher in each of his last 4 starts. The Rangers have a better offense than we do, but we were clutch (they werent) and our pitchers were friggin dominant (theirs werent).

Overall Im so proud to be a lifelong sufferer of Giants baseball at the moment, and Love everything this team did in the World Series (except of course keep letting Pat Burrell bat…)

I wanted the Giants to win one for Huff. To be primarily on bottom-feeders and middle-of-the-pack teams, Huff dug a little niche in my sympathy cortex.

I also wanted him to be WS MVP, but I’m more than content to see him with a ring, a fourth champagne shower this postseason and a smooch on the trophy.

Half and half.

Career years? Burrell, no: he has had five better seasons in his career than his SF 2010. Ross, yes: a .360 BABIP will do that. Huff, no: he has had one better year and three very close—moreover, his real improvement this year has been in his walks rate, not his hits rate of his power, and walks-rate improvements tend to stick.

For myself, I’d have all of Huff, Burrell, Ross, and Uribe back; I’d even have Edgar back if they can work out the dollars (that is, ignore his contractual option).

I mention it only because it helps explain why I am absolutely giddy right now. The SF Giants are World Champions. Been saying that for the last hour and still hardly believe it.

My grandfather was an NY Giants fan. Growing up in Southern California he taught me the Dodgers were evil and the Angels were a joke. In 1997 I moved to the Bay Area and finally became a Giants fan. It’s been one hell of a ride since then, from my first game at the Stick, and here in 2010, when nobody else outside the Bay Area though they ever had a chance, they finally did it. They finally won.

My entire Giants fandom flashed before my eyes as Wilson got the final outs

I thought back to all the memories. To my first game at Cadlestick in the 1980s. To listening to every night game on my GE clock radio. To going to games with my family, trekking up from the South Bay to enjoy a day of family bonding at a Giants game. To freezing my ass off at Candlestick, waiting for that hot chocolate vendor to come around. To the many afternoons I enjoyed with friends at the Stick. To taking my now wife on dates at Candlestick. To the heartbreak of 1987, the joy of the pennant in 1989 only to have the buzzkill of the earthquake World Series, the gut punch of 1993, the guts getting ripped out in 2002, and the bitter disaoppointments of 2000 and 2003. And so many more memories.

Now I get to add a World Series championship to my treasure chest of memories. The feeling is more awesome than I ever dreamed.

Yes, I am an Old Blue. Now get off my lawn.

Here's how it works

There’s a couple days of just flat-out giddiness and disbelief. Then the reality sinks in, probably you’ll have a t-shirt or a cap or something that says “World Series Champions” on it and then it feels REAL.

You’re going to spend the better part of the winter just doing your thing, and then you’ll remember: “Holy shit. WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS.” Well into February, you might even say it to the person nearest to you: “Honey… the (Giants) won the World Series!” and you’ll be grinning like an asshole.

Then the season starts and you get to hear every opposing team/announcer say “The World Champion San Francisco Giants come to town…” “Well, the Giants are the champs, so you have to play them tough,” etc. SIX WHOLE FUCKING MONTHS of getting fluffed by the entire sport. Glorious!

It’s really great. The whole year is pretty awesome. Enjoy it!

You know, I'm not really a baseball fan...

But I watched a Giants baseball game out of boredom way earlier in the year, and had a funny feeling about this team. It starred Matt Cain (I remember that because ESPN’s headline was “Will Cain be able?”) and Uribe hitting a home run out of nowhere and doing the ‘jazz hands’ sign. The Giants won that game.

And now, looking back on the first actual Giants baseball game my fairweathered disinterested self ever watched, it all makes sense. You guys were destined for this, and you got it.

Congratu-fucking-lations.

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wooooooooooooooo Hooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!

And why not more, as our sage Buster Posey noted? Our core of young players are under control for years, and probably will be signed for future extensions. We just need to add hitters and relievers to fill the gaps to get us to the playoffs, then the starters will take over and shut down great offenses.

Because great dominating pitchers can shut down offenses when they are on, and the best dominating pitchers are on more often than they are not. The Giants showed that this is true, that this strategy works, that this is why we didn’t trade away any of our good pitchers to get that one bat that would have made fans happy, but weaken the stellar rotation. We won because we had Bumgarner when all they could counter with was Hunter and Blanton. We won because Lincecum is still one of the best pitchers in the majors and our ace trump your ace. We won because Cain took a big step forward this season to stake his place in the spotlight.

I wonder if Baseball Prospectus still wants Brian Sabean fired?

They spent a whole chapter of their annual on that for their 2010 annual, the last annual I’ll ever buy, unless I see a mea culpa. Though their 2011 chapter on the Giants will be interesting, I suppose.
