The San Francisco Giants beat the Kansas City Royals 3-2 to win the World Series 4-3 for their third world championship in five years.

KANSAS CITY – When it was over, when he was finally able to tell the true tale of this magical night and this historic World Series, Madison Bumgarner shed the mask and made a full confession. Yes, he was nervous. Yes, he was tired. Yes, he is human.

Bumgarner “could’ve pitched 12 innings today,” said Jack Morris, who had one of the most memorable Game 7 pitching performances in World Series history.
