New World series Champs

Contrary to popular opinion, the San Francisco Giants made a mockery of the Texas rangers and their vaunted hitters. Ron Washington, manager of the rangers lauded Bruce Bochy and his feisty mix of kids, veterans, late arrivals, and back office staff that cobbled together a winner: their first Series victory in 56 years. Their last win was in 1954 in New York when they defeated the Cleveland Indians.
So now, the ghosts of 1962, 1989, and 2002 can be buried. No more will those haunting ghosts dominate collective thinking. Willie Mays lived long enough to bear witness to the victory. Some of his teammates will share the moment as the kids celebrate. When they return from Texas, the City will organize appropriate ceremonies to mark this historic day.
Save your newspapers for the grandchildren, who knows when they'll win again? It's never easy, just ask the new York Yankees or the Boston Red Sox or the Florida Marlins.
Enjoy the moment baseball fans.
WestSide Pizza had its share of fans on scene to relish the victory in Game 5 as Tim Lincecum won for the 2nd time during the series. What a remarkable athlete! MVP Edgar Renteria, a native of Colombia, overcame his injuries to deliver the game winning home run scoring 2 of his teammates Cody Ross and Juan Uribe after they had been advanced on a beautiful bunt by Aubrey Huff. It was definitely a team effort. Closer, Brian Wilson, using his arm with attitude delivered the final 3 outs. Great game, great Series.
Go Giants.
