Why play it out? Giants have it all going their way
SAN FRANCISCO — Why even play three more games? It's the Giants' world, and the rest of us just eat overpriced Cioppino and get fat on Ghirardelli chocolate. It was impressive for Barry Zito to use his 85-mph fastballs to shut down the Cardinals...

It's time for more instant replay — for World Series
Bad calls didn't put the Yankees in 2-0 hole; the pitching of all Tigers not named Jose Valverde did. Nor did that bad infield fly rule call send the Braves home after one game; three infield errors did. Yet you won't be able to tell the story of the...

Bad Calls Only Go So Far To Explain Yankees' Malaise
