SF Giants Advance To NLCS - (More Torture)

Giants closer Brian Wilson (second from right) celebrates with teammates, including Travis Ishikawa (from right), Pat Burrell and Buster Posey.

The San Francisco Giants finished their five game series against the Atlanta Braves in typical torturous fashion; they came back twice, once to tie it and then to take the lead for good in the top of the 7th inning.

Closer Brian Wilson finished the game in a way that only Brian Wilson can. He allowed two runners on with one out before retiring the next two batters on a strikeout and a groundout. The Giants gave retiring manager Bobby Cox his due at games end, then rushed to the clubhouse for champagne and tears of ecstasy.

Our San Francisco Giants are heading to the Nationl League Championship series against defending NL champion Philadelphia Phillies. Game 1 is this Saturday and the starting pitchers are Tim Lincecum and Roy Halladay, two of the elite pitchers in the National League. Its Showtime Folks.

So get ready boys and girls, the torture continues when the Giants begin yet another series battle on their way to.................dare I say it? On their way to Glory!


Go Giants!
