Should the color logo of a scanned patch remain or should the black and white logo remain? This is the logo that was replaced. –BuickCenturyDriver 11:54, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It seems to me that it would make much more sense to use the first pitch times for the "start times" in the article as opposed to the start times of FOX' TV coverage. There's a discrepancy of up to twenty-seven minutes between the two times, and other articles about baseball use the first pitch times. Consequently, I will change this page to reflect first pitch times like the other articles, but I'm still open for discussion. Nicklegends (talk) 19:33, 24 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
There is no mention of where the World Series is to be held... that's the info I came here looking for. Perhaps it's obvious to others, but I am clueless. Can someone add it (ideally, with an explanation of how it's determined)? Strom (talk) 02:25, 25 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I have heard people say that because the World Series is between Texas and San Francisco the national TV ratings would suck. Some commentator even said that anyone east of the Mississippi River would not be watching. You could say the same thing if it was the Yankees and Phillies again. I would think TV ratings would be ever worse. No one WEST of the Mississippi River would be watching the series I sure wouldn't be. It has been my observation that everyone outside of New York HATES the Yankees. The World Series will always have the best ratings in the home states of the teams in it and pretty bad everywhere else. --98.234.74.77 (talk) 15:31, 25 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, he was a member of the Giants and Rangers this season, so will get a ring regardless. I've removed it from the page because I think it's trivial. Chris Ray gets a ring either way too, but the media isn't writing about him. --Muboshgu (talk) 01:44, 26 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Somebody jumped the gun a bit in the info box, they show Giants as having already won three games. It may not make any difference soon, but could be something to look out for in the future. Kid Bugs (talk) 03:07, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The article is currently littered with instances of yellow sports journalism prose. I've attempted to remove some. I remind editors that this is an encyclopedia, not a daily tabloid for colorfully recapping the game. Madcoverboy (talk) 15:16, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
How should the full quote from Duane Kuiper be formatted? All the words are present, but it's difficult to tell from listening to the call how Kuiper was intending to form his sentences. How should we format it in this article (placement of ellipses, dashes, commas, etc.)? I will also point out that MLB.com abbreviated what Kuiper actually said. He said the line "The Giants, for the first time in fifty-two years" during the live broadcast, but this was confusingly omitted from the online highlights.

Should we include information about how this world series was affected by the Great Recession? It was one of the first series after the start of the time period. Oops, my bad... according to Wikipedia the Great Recession is already over.
I think the description of game 2 should mention that Cains 7 2/3 scoreless innings brought cain to 21.1 innings without giving up a run in the playoffs. Its the fourth most innings without giving up an earned run in playoff history. Many announcers and media members made a big deal out of it and Cains hat was sent to the hall of fame. You can read about it here http://www.sportscollectorsdaily.com/renterias-bat-lincecums-jersey-to-hall-of-fame/
Added to the San_Francisco_Giants#2010_World_Series_Champions article:
Something of the same should be added to this article (inexplicably locked). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.231.137.92 (talk) 05:58, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I am curious why there is not a mention of the home run by Renteria in game 5 being a called shot. This can prove to be a pretty historic homerun given he did tell a teammate in the dugout he was going to hit one and in the end if ended up being the decisive factor in the game. Unlike Ruth's historic called shot, there is no disputing this home run was called. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cbfolsom122 (talk • contribs) 23:12, 13 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
After watching game 7, I think people will want to compare 2012 Giants to 2010. From the article 2010 reminds me of another fast victory against the AL. I'd say the national pundits overlooked SF in both years. The NL West gets similar media treatment, but seeing what SF did ant what the Dodgers spent, it probably was a strong division this year too. -[Bearpigman 174.51.81.228 (talk) 05:59, 29 October 2012 (UTC)][reply]
