Did I say Giants in 6? It looks more likely that it will happen. The Rangers will win 2 of 3 in Texas and the Giants can finish it off in game 6 in AT&T Park. Yea.
Now, looking back to game 1. Obviously, it was great to see the Giants broke out of their hitting slump by scoring 11 runs, but do it against Cliff Lee, who all the experts say is absolutely un-hittable. Naaaa! The best news coming out of game 1 was obviously the victory. The second best news was they beat the unbeatable Cliff Lee. The third best news was they scored 11 runs. But the bad news that I didn't like was the Giants reliever gave up 3 runs in the ninth which I thought shift the momentum to the Rangers.
But tonight, game 2 was much different than I expected. One, I thought it might rain, it didn't. Two, I thought the game could be sloppy if it rains and windy, no it didn't. A great pitching dual until the Giants broke it open in the eighth. That 7 runs in the eighth can really send a message. Not just the Giants pitches beat Lee, Wilson, and the bullpens also. Now, the Rangers can think out this 0-9 lost in game 2 and 0-2 in the series as they fly home and think it through for an extra day. The momentum is clearly on the Giants side.
Clearly, this is the time to test the team's character. The Rangers can fold and lose in 4, which I doubt it would happen. After-all, they came back and beat the Rays and Yankees. My prediction, game 3 to Rangers, game 4 to Giants, game 5 to Rangers, and game 6 to Giants!
