At this moment, everything seems to be working in the favor of Giants. Their hitting as well as the fielding was good, but their pitching has been nothing less than brilliant. Sunday night saw Giants beat Rangers 4-0 in Game 4 to go 3-1 up in the series. Just one more win similar to this and they will be crowned champions.
Coming into Game 3 with a couple of humiliating defeats on their shoulders, one would have expected the Rangers to crumble against the might of the San Francisco Giants. However, it looks like home soil works wonders for the Texans. They managed to steal some pride back with a fighting performance at the Rangers Ballpark in Arlington. This is Game 3 of the World Series currently going on between the Texas Rangers and San Francisco Giants.
