This was fast: The San Francisco Giants won an impressive four games in a row to win the 2012 World Series
The Giants capped a 4-0 sweep of the Tigers with a thrilling, extra-inning 4-3 win in Game 4 at a rain-dappled Comerica Park in Detroit. As he has been doing all postseason, Giants second baseman Marco Scutaro came up with the key hit, singling home Ryan Theriot with the go-ahead run in the top of the 10th inning.
Sergio Romo then closed out the series-clinching win, locking up the Giants’ second title in three seasons (2010) and the seventh in their 129-year franchise history.
“Tonight was a battle. I think tonight was a fitting way for us to end it because those guys played hard,” Giants backstop Buster Posey told Ken Rosenthal of FOX on the field after the game as his teammates celebrated around him. “They didn’t stop. It’s an unbelievable feeling.”
