Yes they Cain! Giants win with a shutout performace
Edited on Thu Oct-28-10 10:27 PM by AsahinaKimi

Giants 9 Rangers 0! Nice win Giants!

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Matt Cain zeroed in for six innings, Edgar Renteria reprised his role as a postseason star and the San Francisco Giants led the Texas Rangers 1-0 in Game 2 of the World Series on a windy Thursday night.

A day after the Giants battered Texas 11-7 in the opener, Cain and Texas starter C.J. Wilson ruled.

Renteria provided the only run with a drive into the left-field seats with one out in the fifth inning. The eighth-place hitter had gone 53 straight at-bats overall without a home run and had not connected at AT&T Park since July 27.

Renteria is no stranger to October heroics. In 1997, his two-out single in the bottom of the 11th inning in Game 7 of the World Series lifted Florida over Cleveland. In 2004, he made the final out for St. Louis as Boston finished off a World Series sweep.
