A "GIANTS" NIGHT IN KANSAS CITY AT THE BASEBALL ALL STAR GAME............

Hats off and flying high to three of the San Francisco Giants major league baseball players who were instrumental contributors to the National League's  8-0 triumph over the American League in tonight's annual, "All Star Game", played in Kansas City, Missouri and Kauffman Stadium.  The Giants' Matt Cain,   pitching for the National League, opposite Justin Verlander, of the Detroit Tigers pitching for the American League, hot the win; while Verlander struggled to control gis 100 mile an hour pitches and gave up five runs in the 1st inning.  The Giants Melky Cabrera scored first, hitting a home run, and then Giant Pablo Sandoval, hit the first ever all bases loaded triple in an All Star Game, making the score 5-0 in the 1st inning,  Then in the 4th inning Cabrera hit a two run homer against relief pitcher Matt Harrison,  and as a result of his play tonight was named the All Star Game Most Valuable Player.  The skillful playing skills of Sandoval and Cabrera tonight, validated the late surge in the All Star voting conducted by the San Francisco Giants fans to get them starting positions in tonight's Classic.  With Cain's Perfect Game on June 13th, and the seven of eight runs scored by the play of Cabrera and Sandoval in this All Star Game, and with the Giants only one half game out of first place in the National League West, the 2012 Major League Basebaqll Season, may yet portend even greater things for the City By the Bay's "Giants", in the form of another Fall Classic appearance and just perhaps a second World Series championship.  Pardon my perhaps over exuberant pride in the San Francisco Giants in this blog column, but may they continue to shine as these three Giants did tonight............Fr.  Troy
