Congratulations to the Royals. Pretty cool run for them. Just hope the NLCS wraps up soon. Would hate to watch them get cold like the Rockies did in 07.
That's why I hope we win in 7 against the Cards. Let the Royals cool off a bit, get them thinking about the game, and hopefully they come out flat.

Seriously, the Giants are getting so lucky in this postseason. So many mistakes are allowing them to stay in games.

Fuck yeah, Panik!

EDIT: Well, that was quick. St. Louis is living off of the long ball this postseason.

WORLD SERIES! I think we're running into a buzzsaw with the Royals, but we'll see.

"Big Game" James was weak. (All postseason)

Tonight should bring a win for the Royals...then it's tough

I know all bets are off in the postseason, and regular season trends sometimes don't apply, but the Royals were a better road team than home team this year(47-34 on the road 42-39 at home), and they were especially bad in home games with big crowds(off the top of my head, we were something like 1-7 at home when we had a crowd of 30K+)

So if we can win tonight, I still like our chances of going to San Fran and getting 1, and possibly even 2 wins. After Bumgardner and Peavy(who the royals hit well), the rest of the Giants starters are trash, and that's who we will be seeing in games 3 and 4 more than likely, the trash.

Hudson was really good this year (he had a few poor starts), but he suffered from a huge lack of run support, similar to Cain years prior. Vogelsong is very inconsistent in the regular season, but prior to the game 4 vs. the Cards, he had a postseason ERA of 1.12 and WHIP under 1. He's a totally different pitcher in the postseason.

Solid win tonight... do not underestimate Hudson, he has waited 1000 years to get here as well.

(Could either be brilliant or awful)

At least we have ourselves a series. I definitely think the Royals can get at least 1 win in San Fran to get the series back to KC
