Unless you've been living in a cave, you've probably noticed that the San Francisco Giants have won the first two games of the World Series. Now that the series is in Detroit, hopefully the Tigers have a fighting chance. Here's your thread to discuss matters related to the game, what you're eating for lunch, or to count down the days until pitchers and catchers report.

Also, congratulations to Susan Slusser, the A's beat writer from the San Francisco Chronicle for reaching two career milestones:

• Being named the first female president of the Baseball Writers Association of America.
• Being "quoted" in The Onion.

First pitch from Comerica Park in Detroit: 5:07 p.m.
