how about brandon belt. 0-10 in the world series until he delivers with a big triple to give them the lead for the first time. remember, now, the -- the giants are 10-1 in this postseason when they scored first. 10-1 when they score first. so many different contributors as we said. buster posey, well, he's simply the batting champion in the american lead. he's been relatively quiet, having a decent world series and then he comes back and delivers the go-ahead home run, two-run homer. marco scutaro, who beat out an infield single to get on base, helped give them the lead again. they lost the lead. it was 3-2. they went back and the tigers hit another home run to headache it 3-3 and extend -- to make it 3-3 and extend this game into three innings. perhaps the most dramatic game -- it was cold and misty. this was very tough rain. it should have been snow. but in the 10th inning when marco scutaro delivers his second hit of the game, it was the game-winning rbi. he was just 2 for 12 in the world series. but he came up with two big hits. think about the swen -- think about the swen yun --

belt scores on the error. and marco scutaro sends one to left. and chris carpenter. brandon to crawford and vogelsong scored. giants on top, 4-0. next batter. pablo sandoval. singles to center. that scores scutaro. vogelsong then went into high gear after the 5 point push sheen. one run, four hits, one walk and nine case. giants force game seven with a 6-1 victory. they have won five straight games facing a elimination. >> he was on top of his game again. he's had great stuff. he's locating,'s tough and had it going on again tonight. really was going in and out and had his good off-speed pitches going. he did everything he wanted to do to us. and we got trouble with him and he's made great pitches against us. we've made very little adjustments. he's not making any mistakes so it's a tough combination for us. >> 5:07 tomorrow first pitch. raiders are a work in progress. they seem to take a few steps forward and then a few steps back. today against jacksonville they stuck together for an ugly overtime victory. we are adding some pink to the silver and black. breast cancer awareness month in the nfl. the second
