I watched World Series Game 5 again tonight and I remember when I was watching it, it only hit me what they had done when Joe Buck started naming all the Giants who didn't win a World Series in San Francisco over years: Willie Mays, Orlando Cepeda, Willie McCovey, Juan Marichal, John Montefusco, Steve Garrelts, Robby Thompson, Will Clark, Matt Williams, JT Snow, Barry Bonds, Jeff Kent, Robb Nen, Rod Beck.
I never expected them to win this year. I thought they were at least a year away. The hitting wasn't good enough. The bullpen was too shaky. But they did it. I can't believe they did it. For all the teams that deserved to win and didn't, this one did it. Wow. Lincecum, Cain, Sanchez, Bumgarner, Zito, Ross, Uribe, Huff, Sanchez, Renteria, Wilson, Sandoval, Torres, Rowand, Burrell, Lopez, Casilla...
