reds played terrible in september. they fizzled out and limped into the playoffs.
Giants have been on fire all september and it's carried them here.
and maybe you guys have the big names in pitching, but our pitching staff > your pitching staff.
Giants starters allowed 3 earned runs in 4 playoff games. Bullpen other than Sergio Romo is lights out.
BEST PITCHING STAFF IN MLB, look it up. the stats dont lie.
not to mention the giants beat Halladay, Oswalt and Hamels earlier in the season.
now i'm not saying we're gonna win (i'm a giants fan, i KNOW better) BUT this is gonna be a closer series than you think.
