Giants take 3-1 lead
San Francisco rookie left-hander Madison Bumgarner, just 21 and the fourth youngest to ever win a World Series game, pitched eight dazzling shutout innings Sunday night, striking out six and completely stymieing the Texas Rangers' big bats.
Aubrey Huff's two-run homer in the third and rookie catcher Buster Posey's one-run blast in the eighth was all the offense the Giants needed to take a commanding 3-1 game lead over the formerly George W. Bush owned, and heavily tax subsidized, Texas Rangers.
High and inside. Go Giants. Maybe 41 can throw out tonight's first pitch. I like the streak.
