San Francisco Giants
AT&T Park
8:07 p.m. EST

Don't let the final score (or the television ratings) fool you, Game 1 of the 2012 World Series was a contest to remember, even if Detroit would like to forget it.

With a historic hitting performance and unexpected results from the starting pitchers, the Giants' 8-3 win over the Tigers got the 2012 Fall Classic off to a rocking started. Pablo Sandoval and Barry Zito had the fans at AT&T Park rocking. Justin Verlander and the visiting Tigers got rocked at AT&T Park.

In Game 2, Madison Bumgarner will take the mound for San Francisco and that might help Detroit's batters get back on track. Bumgarner is 0-2 this postseason with an 11.25 ERA.

As for the Tigers, It's Doug Fister's turn in the rotation. Fister hasn't earned a decision this postseason but the Tigers have come out on top in each of his two starts. The 28-year-old righty stymied the Yankees in his last start, pitching 6.1 innings of shutout baseball.

Will the Panda and Marco Scutaro stay in Game 2? Or will the Tigers pounce on the struggling Bumgarner to even the series.
