San Francisco Giants Won the 106th World Series --ชัยชนะที่มากกว่าแค่เกมส์

คืนนี้ ทีมเบสบอล San Francisco Giants ได้แชมป์ World Series หลังจากได้เป็นแชมป์ครั้งสุดท้ายเมื่อ 56 ปีมาแล้ว (Giants ชนะครั้งสุดท้ายเมื่อสมัยยังเป็น New York Giants เมื่อปี 1954 -- และยังไม่เคยชนะอีกเลยตั้งแต่ย้ายมาอยู่ซานฟรานซิสโกตั้งแต่ปี 1957 ดังนั้นบางแห่งจึงจะบอกว่า 56 ปี บางแห่ง 53 ปี ขึ้นอยู่กับว่านับยังไง)

ชัยชนะคืนนี้เป็นยิ่งกว่าเีพียงชัยชนะในเกมส์ แต่เป็นบทสรุปที่สวยงามของเรื่องราวแห่งการต่อสู้ของกลุ่มคนที่เป็นเบี้ยล่าง เป็นunderdogs และความมุ่งมั่นที่จะได้มาซึ่งชัยชนะของพวกเขา-- เรื่องราวที่เราคิดว่ามีได้แต่ในหนังฮอลลีวู้ดเท่านั้น นักกีฬาแต่ละคนไม่ได้เป็นดาวเด่น สถิติก็ไม่ได้ดีเด่ แต่ด้วยความเป็นน้ำหนึ่งใจเดียว ด้วยความแน่วแน่ จึงสามารถไปถึงดวงดาวได้

The victory of the Giants tonight is anything BUT a simple win in baseball history.  Instead, it's an inspirational story of trust, of fierce fight of the underdogs, and above all of redemption.

The Giants are called a team of misfits and outcasts and have not been a favorite team to win the series, but day in and day out they have proven the experts wrong and stepped up to the plate in a very big way.

Starting with the trust that team manager Bruce Bochi and General Manager Brian Sabean had in their team.

Starting Pitcher: Tim Lincecum, the two-time NL Cy Young winner gave up three hits over eight innings and struck out 10... Even though he didn't get the MVP title but he sure was a winning factor tonight...  He struggled in game one against the Texas Rangers' ace pitcher Cliff Lee but was able to beat Lee again.

And here's a story of redemption -- Edgar Renteria, a 35-year-old Giants veteran who has had the worst season of his career and was injured almost half the season -- made a comeback and hit this historic game-wining 3-run home run.

And of course, the battle is only as good as who your opponent is -- And in this case, the Texas Rangers -- with Cliff Lee, the ace pitcher and the batting team, arguably the best batting team this year -- and they also have done an amazing job ... It has been a great and inspiring journey following them.

The San Francisco Giants have won Major League Baseball's World Series for the first time since 1954, when the team was based in New York City.   The National League champion Giants beat the American League champion Texas Rangers in Game 5 of the best-of-seven series to clinch baseball's 2010 overall title, four-games-to-one.

The San Francisco Giants beat the Texas Rangers, 3-1 Monday in Arlington, Texas to win the World Series, ending one of the longest championship droughts in baseball history - 56 years.Giants manager Bruce Bochy said it is a great feeling to finally win a World Series title.  "I have been fortunate to be in this game [of baseball] and manage for quite awhile," he says, "and I have never been to this point.  It is what you dream about.''Texas was favored by many heading into the World Series. 

San Francisco first baseman Aubrey Huff said the Giants proved the critics wrong. "This staff, this bullpen [pitching staff] did not get the credit it deserved to start these playoffs," he said.  "We were underdogs the whole way, and all the experts out their picked us last.  Just goes to show what they know, man.  Heart, great pitching, defense, and timely hits - and that is what we did."Great pitching in a season dubbed, "The Year of the Pitcher," came from starter Tim Lincecum who struck out 10 batters and allowed only one run and three hits in eight innings before star reliever Brian Wilson pitched a scoreless ninth inning to close it out.  

Lincecum said winning the World Series is indescribable."I do not really know how to pick what emotion to go with right now. It is like, what are we thinking about next year, the excitement and the things that can happen, talking about what we did this year, the right moves that we made.  We just did all the right things," Lincecum said.Lincecum beat opposing pitcher Cliff Lee in the final game. 

The Giants hurler also topped the Texas ace last Wednesday in the series opener.  Lee came into the World Series with seven wins and no losses during the playoffs.Game five's timely hitting came courtesy of the Series Most Valuable Player, Edgar Rentaria, whose three-run home run in the seventh inning was all the scoring San Francisco needed.Bochy said winning the World Series was a team effort, led by Rentaria. "I know how bad Edgar wanted it.  It was not too long ago, we had a little talk, and he said, 'I just want to go out and win another World Series.'  I could not be prouder for him.  It is pretty incredible what he is done in his career," he said.Rentaria also had the winning hit in the 1997 World Series when he played for the Florida Marlins.Nelson Cruz drove in the Rangers' only run on a solo homer off Lincecum in the bottom of the seventh inning. 

Texas Rangers manager Ron Washington says the Giants starting pitchers silenced his team's big bats.  "They drove our offense, and good pitching stopped hitting.  In this series, their pitching certainly stood up, and that - that was the difference right there," Washington said.The Texas Rangers were making their first World Series appearance in the 50-year history of the franchise. 

This is the sixth World Series title in Giants' history, and their first since the franchise moved west to San Francisco, California from New York in 1958.
