According to new outlets, this particular contest was won by the Giants. I have a feeling the Cardinals may turn the tide in game 2.

I'll go a step further and say they do it in dramatic fashion. Maybe even a walkoff bomb.

I predict they will tire of the present ballpark and move the series to San Francisco for game 3.

I tend to agree, but I predict they'll take a day or so to mull it over. You know MLB...never quick to make a decision.

I'm trying to remember if I've ever seen a run score from second on a wild pitch (with the pitch remaining in play, and the pitcher at least eventually remembering to cover the plate).  That was pretty amazing.  Hats off to the Giants, and bigger hats off to the Cards for fighting through that huge momentum swing and winning the game.

 

And who put a quarter in Kolten Wong and wound him up, anyway???

Wow!  When you're right, you're right!

 

They were even slower in the ALCS...

Wow - a walkoff E-1 in the bottom of the 28th. Giants lead this strange one game NLCS 2-1 heading into the 29th inning.

I wonder if FOX wishes that last night's game was on network television . . . did anyone on the board watch it? I don't have FS1, and I wasn't going to a bar to watch the Cardinals and Giants...
