Ugly pitching all around. Tough to watch.

Both bullpens up in the 2nd.

If the Giants get another lead, it pretty much has to be Bumgarner time. No point in messing around, he doesn't even need his best stuff because he's so far in the Royals heads.

I don’t think Troutman in his life ever thought he'd see Affeldt in the 2nd inning.

No, but I thought there was a good chance of Bumgarner coming in early.

I think Bumgarner needs to begin a inning. Cant inherit runners.

So do the Giants get the MVP regardless of who wins? Pence and Bumgarner are both by far the most valuable players.

Why do fans boo a hit batter? You just got a free base.

Giants getting out of trouble with DPs.

Yeah I utterly hate bunting there. He's probably tired so why give him an out?

Nice job, Yost. Take the bat out of Escobar's hands AND give Bumgarner an out. That's smart baseball right there.

Bumgarner's WS ERA going lower.

How long can he last?

I wanna see him go for it. 2 Wins and a save. Maybe the greatest World Series performance ever if he does.

I think he pitches the 7th. Romo the 8th, and Casilla the 9th, assuming score stays close.

Two playoff records set - Panda for hits, Bumgarner for innings.

But how do you take him out? The Royals blew their chance with the bunt, since then he's settled in and now he's just dealing again.

Verducci just made a great point about homefield. Pitchers can go longer not having to hit in the AL park.
