Rangers vs. Giants Each Punch Their Ticket To Fall Classic


Texas defeated the defending World Series champion New York Yankees 4-2 in the ALCS. San Francisco defeated the two time defending National League champion Philadelphia Phillies 4-2 in the NLCS. Josh Hamilton of the Rangers won ALCS MVP. Cody Ross of the Giants won NLCS MVP. World Series Game 1 begins on Wednesday in San Francisco. The National League finally broke their All Star Game losing streak in July, which allowed the NL to have home field during the Fall Classic. We'll see what type of ratings FOX will get with these two unexpected teams, making it to this point. Cliff Lee will look to win a world championship for the first time and will be a free agent after the season. Cody Ross who's been hot all postseason will be in search for his first world championship. San Francisco has never won a World Series in that city, ditto for Texas. The Giants last world championship took place in 1954, while playing in New York. The country will get to know both teams players, that are veterans and youth. It should be an interesting competitive series.
