It's Exhausting

Oh my.  I love baseball. I love my Giants. Another great season. Then in the two first games of the best of 5 series against the Reds we couldn't pitch, couldn't hit, couldn't win. We were in our home ball park. How could this be? Like watching dominos fall.  Off we flew to Cincinnati. We were down 2-0.We won game 3. Yippee. We won game 4. OMG!!!! We were back. The boys were hitting. Timmy was brought in as a reliever and looked like the two time Cy Young winner Timmy of old. Today we played for all the marbles. Brutal game. Brutal. Yes, we took an early lead and then Buster hit the Grand Slam in the 5th. Long way to go though. Reds started chipping away. Bochy was doing his usual bullpen dance which always makes me nervous. We made it through the 6th, 7th, 8th and into the 9th when Romo came in.  I was at my wit's end by now.Had turned the sound off and could barely watch.  Reds got another run.Now it's 6-4 with two men on base with one out.  Romo was pitching to Jay Bruce. 11 pitches fouled off before Romo got him to fly out.  Thought I was going to faint. Still two men on base. Rolen at the plate and Romo did what he was supposed to do, struck him out. GIANTS WIN! GIANTS WIN!  No other team has accomplished coming back from 2-0 down to win.  What a team!! Everyone contributed in today's win. Crawford had a triple, Buster the 4 bagger, Angel a brilliant catch, Cain held his own, and on and on. TEAM ball!!! So do we face the unbelievable Nationals or St Louis Cardinals for the NCLS? Nats were in a must win situation tonight and won via a walk off home run. They play to tie up the series. I bet Mark is a nervous wreck. I love October. The TBS promo is true. October Baseball, Where Legends Are Made!
