In what was arguably the greatest pitching duel of the past decade, the Giants (led by ubermensch Madison Bumgarner) downed the Mets 3-0 on a Conor Gillaspie HR (as we all saw coming). As a result, the Giants will take their Heart of Gold improbability drive to the 2016 World Series World Tour to Chicago.
Who the hell are these guys?

Here’s an area where the Giants are just inarguably great. Buster Posey is extremely good. Posey’s worst career year was 2016, where he still hit .288/.362/.434 with 33 doubles and 14 home runs.
