DETROIT -- Marco Scutaro singled home the tiebreaking run in the 10th inning, and the San Francisco Giants beat the Detroit Tigers 4-3 on Sunday night to complete a four-game sweep and win their second World Series title in three years.
Ryan Theriot, who went hitless for St. Louis in Game 7 of last year's Series, singled softly into right field off Phil Coke opening the 10th.

The Giants swept the Pennant race and they swept the Series. How many teams have done that?
I wasn’t disparaging the city or the people there. I just don’t like them tromping on the Tigers. LOL
That Obama curse...thanks alot, Mr. President.

Thanks to the 2012 Detroit Tigers for another winning season! Go Get ‘Em again in 2013.
