2B – Daily News – Tuesday, November 2, 2010 wildly. GIANTS (Continued from page 1B) They played with heart and determination. They weren’t going to be denied. My staff, they accepted their roles and had only one mission.’’ Renteria reprised his role of postseason star. His 11th-inning single ended Game 7 of the 1997 World Series and lifted Florida over Cleveland. Forget that he made the last out in the 2004 Series that finished Boston’s sweep of St. Louis — this journey- man’s path led to another title, helped by his go- ahead home run in Game 2. ‘‘It was a tough year for me,’’ the oft-injured short- stop said. ‘‘I told myself to keep working hard and keep in shape because something is going to be good this year.’’ A team seemingly free of egos did everything right to take the lead. Ross, the surprising MVP of the NL championship series, stayed square and hit a leadoff single and Juan Uribe followed with another hit up the middle. That put a runner at sec- ond base for the first time in the game and brought up Huff, who led the Giants in home runs this year. So what did he do? He expertly put down the first sacrifice bunt of his career. Lee struck out Pat Bur- rell to keep the runners put, but Ross began hop- ping home as soon as Renteria connected, send- ing a drive that kept sailing and landed over the left- center field wall. And just like that, all the Giants’ past troubles seemed like ancient histo- ry. Bonds, Mays and sever- al other former San Fran- cisco stars are still a part of the Giants family. Bonds got a hallowed home-run record, but ques- tions persist about alleged steroids use. He visited the Giants clubhouse during the Series and got a big hand from fans when he took his seat at AT&T Park. His godfather, the 79- year-old Mays, was sup- posed to throw out the cer- emonial first ball but was absent because of illness. The Giants won their previous title when they played in New York at the Polo Grounds. That’s where Mays raced back for perhaps the most famous catch of all time. They moved West in 1958 and had tried ever WORLD SERIES San Francisco wins series 4-1 Game 1:San Francisco 11, Texas 7 Game 2:San Francisco 9, Texas 0 Game 3:Texas 4, San Francisco 2 Game 4:San Francisco 4, Texas 0 Game 5 Monday’s result San Francisco 3, Texas 1 NHL ODDS Glantz-Culver Line For Nov.2 Major League Baseball Today at San Francisco -135 Texas +125 NCAAFootball Today Middle Tenn. 1.5 Wednesday at South Florida 10 NFL Sunday Chicago-x 3 (41) Buffalo at Houston OFF (OFF) San Diego New Orleans 7 (42.5) at Minnesota 9 (41) at Atlanta N.Y.Jets at Baltimore 8.5 (44.5) Tampa Bay 3.5 (42.5) 5.5 (40.5) at Philadelphia OFF (OFF) Indianapolis at Green Bay 8 (44.5) Monday 4 (42) Pittsburgh x-at Toronto Off Key Houston played Nov.1 Seattle QB questionable Indianapolis played Nov.1 NBA Today Atlanta at Miami Orlando Portland at Washington 3.5 Boston 2.5 6 16 5 1.5 at L.A.Lakers 11.5 NHL Today at Toronto -140 at Columbus -120 San Jose -135 Vancouver -155 Ottawa+120 Montreal+100 atMinnesota+115 atEdmonton+135 atCleveland Philadelphia at Detroit Minnesota atNewYork at Milwaukee Memphis at Carolina Arizona at Detroit Miami New England 5 (44) at Cleveland N.Y.Giants OFF (OFF) at Seattle at Oakland 2.5 (40.5) KansasCity Dallas at Cincinnati atArkansasSt. Rutgers WESTERN CONFERENCE Pacific Division Kings Dallas WL OT Pts GF GA 8 3 0 16 34 25 6 4 0 12 32 27 SHARKS 53 1 11 29 25 Phoenix 3 4 3 9 23 29 Ducks Central Division 4 7 1 9 29 42 WL OT Pts GF GA Chicago 7 6 1 15 41 40 St. Louis 6 1 2 14 26 17 Detroit 6 2 1 13 30 24 Nashville 5 2 3 13 23 25 Columbus 6 4 0 12 24 29 Northwest Division WL OT Pts GF GA Colorado 6 4 1 13 39 39 Calgary 6 5 0 12 33 34 Vancouver 4 3 2 10 24 24 Minnesota 4 4 2 10 26 27 Edmonton 3 4 2 8 28 33 EASTERN CONFERENCE Atlantic Division WL OT Pts GF GA Philadelphia 7 4 1 15 37 29 N.Y.

Lakers since to escape a sort of big league Alcatraz — the place where teams get stuck for decades as also- rans. The Red Sox and White Sox got free, not so the Cubs and Indians. So clang the cable car bells. Loudly, too. Base- ball’s best play in the Bay. Exactly when these Giants turned into world beaters is hard to say. Trailing San Diego by 7 1/2 games in the NL West on July 4, they meandered in the wild-card race until the stretch run, winning the division and finishing 92-70. Come the playoffs, they became dangerous. Any well-armed team is. Start with Matt Cain — three postseason starts, a 0.00 ERA. Throw in Lincecum, the two-time Cy Young winner. Add Madison Bumgarner, the 21-year- old rookie who helped blank Texas in Game 4. ‘‘This doesn’t make sense. You don’t realize it. It’s something that’s surre- al. But that’s what we are, World Series champs,’’ Cain said. San Francisco posted a trio of one-run wins in the opening round that sent Atlanta manager Bobby Cox into retirement, then stopped the two-time defending NL champion Phillies in the champi- onship series. Those wins, like this came on the road. In the Year of the Pitch- er, the World Series proved the oldest adage in the game: Good pitching stops good hitting, every time. Lincecum and the team with the best ERA in the big leagues completely shut down Josh Hamilton and the club with the majors’ top batting aver- age. Texas hit just .190 in the five games and was outscored 29-12. ‘‘They beat us sound- ly,’’ manager Ron Wash- ington said. ‘‘They deserve it.’’ Texas became the latest Series newcomer to make a quick exit. Houston (2005) and Colorado (2007) got swept in their first appearances, Tampa Bay (2008) stuck around for just five games. The AL champion Rangers became the first team since 1966 to get shut out twice in a World Series, with big hitters Hamilton, Vladimir Guerrero and Cruz left tak- ing half-swings or flailing NASCAR 1.

If only Big Tex could teach his team to hit, too. By the final out, Ryan sat there glumly as did the team’s No. 1 fan, former President George W. Bush. The Giants won their sixth title overall, joining the likes of Christy Math- ewson, Mel Ott and John McGraw as champs, and tying them for third with the Red Sox behind the Yankees (27) and Cardi- nals (10). They also helped ease the gloating that blew from across the Bay, where the Oakland Athletics won three straight crowns in the mid-1970s and swept the Giants in the earthquake- interrupted 1989 Series. San Francisco had come close before. Future Hall of Famers Willie McCovey, Orlando Cepe- da, Mays and Marichal lost to the Yankees 1-0 in Game 7 in 1962. In 2002, Bonds & Co. led the Angels 5-0 in the seventh inning of Game 6 before letting that lead and Game 7 slip away. Many years ago, one swing of the bat prompted a call that resonates throughout Giants history and beyond. ‘‘The Giants win the pennant! The Giants win the pennant! The Giants win the pennant!’’ announcer Russ Hodges shouted over and over after Bobby Thomson launched ‘‘The Shot Heard ’Round the World’’ in 1951. Time to redo that cry: The Giants win the Series! The Giants win the Series! The Giants win the Series! Back on regular rest, Lee and Lincecum were sharper than ever. Put it this way: Even a 1-0 count on a Rangers hitter got some Texas fans cheering. Long gone were their struggles in the opener, won by San Francisco 11- 7. These were aces at their best. Notes: Renteria went 7 for 17 (.412) with a Series- leading six RBIs. ... At 2 hours, 32 minutes, it was the fastest Series game since Game 4 in 1992 between Toronto and Atlanta.

It’s not always going to be pretty, but we’ve just got to keep grinding and making some plays,’’ Manning said. Manning went 26 of 45 for 268 yards. Hart ran with the same deter- mination he used to become Michigan’s career rushing leader and provided the Colts with a rare ground game, and Tamme, Clark’s replace- ment, caught six passes for 64 yards. But it wasn’t just the new guys making plays — or only the offense. Reggie Wayne caught a touchdown pass, Man- ning ran for a first down for the first time in near- ly two years, and even became the lead blocker on a first-down catch- and-run by Pierre Gar- con in the third quarter. Indy’s defense put consistent pressure on Houston quarterback Matt Schaub, too. That’s how important Monday’s game was to the Colts. ‘‘It’s a big win and we needed it,’’ Tamme said. Schaub struggled hor- ribly in the first half and couldn’t rally the Texans in the second as defen- sive ends Dwight Freeney and Robert Mathis applied pressure. Indy had three sacks. The louder-than-nor- mal crowd created prob- lems for Schaub hearing play calls on his helmet radio, barking out sig- GOLF World Golf Ranking 1.Lee Westwood ENG 8.29 2.Tiger Woods 3.

Schaub was better in the second half, finishing 22 of 38 for 201 yards with one TD. But the damage was already done. ‘‘What a great job of playing hard and coming back,’’ Colts coach Jim Caldwell said. ‘‘When bad things happen to them, they don’t take it lightly.’’ The Colts made sure more bad things would- n’t happen Monday night. The Colts went 78 yards on their second series, getting a 2-yard TD pass from Manning to Tamme to make it 7-0. On the second play of the second quarter, the maligned defense gave Indy the play it desper- ately needed. Kelvin Hayden jumped in front of Kevin Walter, picked off Schaub’s pass on the dead run and sprinted 25 yards to make it 14-0. Neil Rackers banked in a 53-yard field goal to get Houston within 14-3 with 12 minutes to go in the half, but that was a speed bump for the Colts.

Manning didn’t stop there. After converting a third-and-10 early in the second half, Manning threw a screen pass to the right to Pierre Gar- con, who cut all the way across the field and fol- lowed his surprise lead blocker — No. 18 — for a 14-yard gain and a first down. Four plays later, Manning took the more conventional route by throwing a flanker screen to Wayne, who sprinted 15 yards to make it 24-3. It was that kind of night for the Texans. Schaub did drop in a perfect 30-yard TD pass to Andre Johnson to make it 24-10 in the third quarter and got a 6-yard TD run from Arian Fos- ter to make it 27-17 early in the fourth. But that was as close as the Texans could get.
