Should I pull out my vehicle and floor it down my street honking like a mad man screaming “Snape killed Dumbledore!”?

Evil Dead on. Night just picked up.

One win away and you have Lincecum starting. You can't ask for anything better as a Giants fan. Hopefully, this will be the day we've all been waiting for.

Saw a graphic youngest pitchers to throw 8 or more innings of shutout ball

Madison Bumgarner 21
Johnny Podres 23
Babe Ruth 23

of course both Podres and Ruth pitched 9 innings and not 8, but none the less a great performance for MadBum.

NY time now 7:30am. Feeling great! Absolutely GREAT! Up 3-1 with Timmeh, Cain and Sanchez ready to go. Have to really like our odds. Also have shown what we are about this year. PITCHING and MORE PITCHING! Still not getting the props we deserve but if we win it all it doesn't matter.

Stayed up really late last night to watch the game without interruption - that was a historic performance. MadBum is such a stud - he dominated a good line-up. And then Posey's homerun stunned Buck.

It's so fitting that this team's historically great pitching has thrown two shut-outs in this WS. And to think how far this team has come from what we all predicted in spring training.

A friend asked me when (if ever) a team's pitching has been so dominant in a postseason. I couldn't think of any except the 2005 White Sox (what a shock :-) but there's surely others. What sites might have something like 'best all time postseason team ERAs'?

You might try looking at baseball almanac.

I was watching the game with my neighbors and had just finished saying how Posey has lost all his power in the post-season and that he was not a real asset at the plate right now because he is just too tired. I had not even had a chance to take a breath after saying that when...

SMACK...

We all just laughed and I claimed full credit for motivating the kid.

Keep up the motivation, cal! When Buster hit that one, I was convinced it was staying in the yard. It was a little off the end of the bat, but it just kept carrying. That certainly does take power that he hadn't been showing recently.

I absolutely love what Bochy did here. He sent a message that guys can't play on merit alone, they have to be producing. Also this is probably the best defensive team we could've possibly thrown out there, it may be the best defense in the league. Lets go Madbum!!

Fucking precient call, dude. Ross makes a key play in LF, Nate makes one in RF.

Ogando kind of reminds me of Julian Tavares.

That's IT!! I was trying to remember who he reminded me of. I was thinking FeRod...but that wasn't right. I was convinced it was Salomon Torres, but you're right....that pockmarked high-yellow complexion is all Tavares.

loved the interview with Eric Karros after the game, btw.

Even through my tv, I could feel him struggle while trying to praise any Giant..

I can't begrudge him that...he IS a fucking doyer.

88 doyers were pretty damn dominating.
