Just looking back at this highlight, I never realized just how dominant Tim Lincecum was this game. That three-run homerun must've felt like you were down 20 runs the way Lincecum was pitching that night.
I still think Timmy should've gotten the MVP instead of Renteria that year for the way he pitched in Game 7. Hitting seems to get the glory (Panda got it in 2012 because he hit 3 homers in Game 1 against the Tigers) but thankfully MadBum got the MVP for his Game 7 dominance in 2014 against the Royals.
@@eurobeatking I don't think anyone would have argued with Timmy. That said, Renteria hit 2 home runs -- which both broke scoreless ties. I realize one of those was in a Game 2 blowout, but that game really wasn't a blowout until the eighth inning. Renteria's HR was in the fifth inning and it was 2-0 after 7. He also slashed at .412/.444/.765. Given that Timmy wasn't that sharp in Game 1, I think Renteria was the right choice.
Imagine being Pat Burrell before this game. Second to last season he ever played, and like the lineup intro said, playing for the team he loved growing up, and getting to win the World Series with them. What a send-off, even if he retired a year later.
Pat Burrell had some great moments in his career. His double in game 5 of the 2008 ws was the winning run for the team he was drafted number one overall by. Unfortunately he didn’t score the run himself cause he was so slow Charlie subbed him out immediately after
Tear. I Got to celebrate a series win with my Father 1 year before he passed away. I was 30 years old and we watched Giants games together since I can remember. Even lived in San Jose in the 1989 Series and Earthquake. Thank you Giants and thank you baseball for all the memories. 👏🏼
As a Rangers fan I can finally watch the highlights of this game and not feel dramatically overwhelmed by this loss. Go Rangers!!! 2023 World Champions!!
Held a grudge for a long time against the giants because of 2012(reds fan) love seeing how much better they are since 2010 than the dodgers. The modern day 90s braces
When Renteria hit that homer in the 7th I lost my goddamned mind. I was so pissed at Burrell for being legit trash the entire series, and with one swing I knew there was no way the Giants were losing this game.
Sometimes you can have a good at bat and have nothing to show for it. Burrell had a pretty good at bat prior to that homerun. Sure he got out but he took a lot of pitches out of Cliff Lee. If remember correctly Lee was ahead in the count and Burrell battled and drew out an 6-8 pitch at bat. You could tell it took a bit out of Lee because he quickly fell behind to Edgar 2-0. That count leverage is was key for that homerun Plus Burrell's first at bat was a line shot that got caught as well.
@Patrise Alexander Nice. But Pat Burrell was also a bonafide slugger when he was in Philly On the Giants he was boom or bust. Sometimes a longball. Most times a strikeout. But he always seemed to have long at bats even when he struckout.
14:54 96 mph fastball high and inside and Cruz swings right through it "You get the feeling Cruz will see that pitch again" - McCarver 15:59 Sure enough it was pitch he struck him out with. Great call from McCarver who always bored me but had good insight.
Giants pitching was incredible that year...if you look at that lineup, though, other than Buster Posey, the rest of them were pretty much on the downside of their careers. No one else even close to Hall of Fame worthy.
Timmy embarrassed them for 8 innings. What a stud.
Let time smoke forever!
Man he was my fav player day
little timmy

@@eurobeatking You mean game 5?
Timmy wasn't as sharp in game 1 but oh boy Timmy was dealing in this game.
@@shermanngjazz yes, my bad. Haha I forgot the Rangers weren't that tough until Game 5 (Game 3 our starter didn't have his stuff)
Ya you can just see the life sucked out of the place with that homer

Pat is forever embraced by both cities (SF and Philly)
I forgot how dominant Lincecum was this game. That was a gutsy performance holy shit.
7:57 Rowand just teleports in to make the catch.
Beam me out there Scotty
Life comes in full circle. Congrats Rangers. Bochy the Goat.
Love how you put the final at-bat with the pitch by pitch sequence, can’t wait for the next series
Fully agreed!
Best feeling of my life remember it like it was yesterday

Sorry for your loss. Glad he got to see them win one before he passed.

I'm glad Boch could make it up for you guys, you've deserved it for a very long time!
@@bryancarbone6053 omg me toooo! SO glad he came here out of retirement! What a beast!

@@MiguelJimenez-uc3yz great point. Those Giant teams were exceptional at working pitch counts even when they made outs.
@Patrise Alexander
Was this when Burrell was with the Phillies?

Still watch this in 2020
Wish they would’ve at least won one of the WS at home. Sucks they were all on the road
Don’t get your hopes high bud
@@nicosullivan3880 idk right now
@@EvannnEvannn 😂😂
I feel you but I think of it this way, they went into their turf and whooped ass. They made a statement every time 👌
Yeah but what can ya do? Home teams are 2-8 in series clinchers in the 2010s.
I think Pat the Bat struck out in every at bat he had in the World Series
Close. 0-13 with 11K
Who?
@@dougg2012 Pat Burrell
You know he had to buy Renteria a few steak dinners for bailing him out with that 3 run shot in the 7th.

Who else here after Buster announced his retirement 😢

Giants Postseason Wins: the GOAT of UA-cam playlists!
Lincecum was insane during this game, dominated the Rangers
2021 🤞🤞
Perfect content.
Thank you for these
Thanks for posting these! I look forward to them every day
I don’t care how Lincecum’s career was. He was so unique so dominant during that time which his stats clearly show, THIS KID BELONGS IN THE H.O.F.
Thank you for this!
Time really flies, 13 years ago today 🥲
Thank you!
nobody really talks bout timmys performance here, cy young performance that changeup was too deadly
Best World Series of all time
I was sitting near right field foul pole and as a young rangers fan this broke my heart
2011 must’ve crushed your heart
@@malware8991 it all did man theres no reason we shouldnt have gotten one chip at least
Josh Hamilton and Vlady changed their bat for a wet paper in all WS
boch really came out of retirement and said “lemme help yall get a ring rq” lmaoo

Peak big time Timmy Jim.
1:22 0:01 I wish they brought this back😢
LET TIM SMOKE
I still get nervous watching that, even though I know my Giants won it. I need help
Adoro a tim lincecum❤
16:01 RUN LIKE THE WIND BUSTER
They deserved it, reminds me when the astros also won it
