SAN FRANCISCO _ One moment, tension.
The next, delirium, champagne, the release of 13 years of frustration.
And the most improbable moment in the 45-year history of the San Francisco Giants.
The Giants are National League champions.
The Giants are going to the World Series.
A team that was 11 { games out of first place in mid-August. A team that came to blows in the dugout in June. A team that _ all season _ was supposed to be too old, too selfish, too fractured. A team built around a star who was supposed to disappear in the postseason.
A team that never gave up on itself. Going to the World Series.
