Best in the West: SF Giants!

I'm now going to interrupt my normally China-related content for a shout out to the San Francisco Giants.

This morning, I awoke to the news that the Giants beat the San Diego Padres 3-0 to win the National League West championship. That means the Giants will be moving to the playoffs for the first time since 2003.

It's been a nail-bitter month for SF Giants with the constant shuffling of NL West standings but it's all worth it now since they've emerged on top. It's a bummer though that I've had to observe this all this baseball drama from 6,000 miles (9,500 km) away, though.

Now off to the playoffs. Go Giants!
