SAN FRANCISCO - It was the Shot That Shook the Bay. Fake Nike Shoes . Travis Ishikawa hit the first homer to end an NL Championship Series, a three-run drive that sent San Francisco to a 6-3 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals in Game 5 on Thursday night. These every-other-year Giants will face the Royals in an all wild-card World Series that begins Tuesday night in Kansas City. A journeyman who began the season with Pittsburgh, Ishikawa connected for the first game-ending home run that sent the Giants into the World Series since perhaps the most famous drive in baseball history — Bobby Thomsons Shot Heard Round the World in a 1951 playoff. Its gratifying, Ishikawa said. If theres an organization Id want to do it for, it would be this one. A role player during the Giants World Series win in 2010, Ishikawa was with Milwaukee in 2012 when San Francisco won another championship. Pablo Sandoval singled to start the ninth inning against Michael Wacha, making his first appearance of the post-season for the Cardinals. After an out, Brandon Belt walked to bring up Ishikawa, who drove a 2-0 pitch into the elevated seats in right field to set off an orange towel-waving frenzied celebration. These guys have been through it, Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. They have been battle-tested and they know how to handle themselves on this type of stage, and then add to that the kids that we brought up, and then Ishikawa. I mean, what a great story, Bochy said. Ishikawa knew right away on his first career post-season homer, raising his right arm into the air as he watched his ball sail into the seats. He emphatically threw his helmet down to the dirt in triumph and joined his jubilant teammates at home plate as fireworks shot off from the centre field scoreboard. Pinch-hitter Michael Morse homered leading off the eighth against Pat Neshek, who replaced Adam Wainwright to start the inning, to tie it 3-all. Morse — relegated to a reserve role because of a lengthy oblique injury — was batting for Madison Bumgarner, crowned NLCS MVP. Its unbelievable, Morse said. This team has been on the same page since the beginning. After taking a 3-1 lead in the series on wild throws the past two days, the Giants used the long ball to advance to their third Series in five years by knocking out the defending NL champions. Rookie Joe Panik hit a two-run drive in the third inning off Wainwright for the Giants first homer in seven games. Just a gutty effort through all this and I couldnt be prouder of these guys. They just dont stop fighting, Bochy said. Ishikawa was the Pirates opening-day first baseman, but was soon cut. He re-signed with the Giants, his original team, on a minor league deal and went to Triple-A before making it back to the majors. He moved from his natural first base spot to play left field for the injured Morse. He signed a minor league contract, he more or less picked us, general manager Brian Sabean said. Im not surprised he hit a home run, Im not. Im surprised hes our starting left fielder. Thats amazing to me. Thats the kind of commitment he had to wanting to get on the field. Ishikawa took a winding journey to his winning home run, too. Earlier in the game, he misplayed a flyball to left field that cost his team a run. He more than made up for it with his final swing. I think a lot of us forgot that we had to let him touch home plate, Bumgarner said. We wanted to run and tackle him around second base. We were excited. Bumgarner did not allow a hit after Tony Cruz homered to give the Cardinals a 3-2 lead with two outs in the fourth, working eight efficient innings. Matt Adams also went deep in the fourth. Santiago Casilla worked out of a bases-loaded jam in the top of the ninth. Adams drew a one-out walk and Daniel Descalso entered to pinch run. Randal Grichuk singled and Descalso reached third on Kolten Wongs grounder. Giants shortstop Brandon Crawford snagged the chopper that glanced off diving third baseman Sandovals glove, then Crawford threw to second for the force. Cruz walked to load the bases with two outs after consecutive pitches near his head, and Bochy lifted him for Jeremy Affeldt. Pitching for the fourth straight day, the lefty retired pinch-hitter Oscar Taveras on a grounder that Affeldt fielded and sprinted to first. Affeldt earned the win. Out to prove himself, Wainwright rediscovered his old post-season rhythm after a couple of rough October outings, and that still wasnt enough once the bullpen took over with a one-run lead. Once Wainwright left the game, the Giants grabbed their chance. Cardinals manager Mike Matheny turned to Neshek after Wainwright reached 97 pitches and retired his final 10 batters. I was running low on gas, Wainwright said. I think he made the right call. For the bottom of the ninth, Matheny made a move that will be second-guessed all off-season. He went with Wacha, the hard-throwing MVP of the 2013 NLCS. But Wacha had missed much of the summer with an injury and last pitched on Sept. 26. UP NEXT The Giants and Royals have played 12 times since interleague play began, with Kansas City winning nine — including all three this season. Affeldt pitched for the Royals the last time they visited San Francisco — that was in 2005, when Barry Bonds was still the giant name in orange and black. HOME RUN HEROES Three players have homered to end an AL Championship Series: Chris Chambliss (1976) and Aaron Boone (2003) did for the New York Yankees, and Magglio Ordonez (2006) for the Detroit Tigers. Pittsburghs Bill Mazeroski (1960) and Torontos Joe Carter (1993) are the only players to win the World Series with a home run. Fake Nike Shoes From China . -- The Guelph Storm are moving on to the Western Conference final after defeating the London Knights 5-4 on Friday in Ontario Hockey League playoff action. Nike Shoes From China Outlet . Jesus Navas bookended yet another huge home win for City by scoring after 14 seconds and again in second-half stoppage time, with Sergio Aguero also netting in each half to add to an own goal by Sandro and a brilliant strike by Alvaro Negredo. https://www.nikeshoeschina.us/ . Huntelaar also had a penalty saved by Wolfsburg goalkeeper Diego Benaglio. The two goals brought Huntelaars total for the season to 18, level with Bayern Munichs Mario Gomez for most in the league.TORONTO - Casey Janssen spent the five days in between his 29th and 30th saves downplaying the significance of the total. But now that hes achieved the round number, he acknowledges its importance. "Its a nice little milestone," said Janssen. "I still want to close out as many games as I can to finish the year. I said it when I took the job, I just kind of wanted to take the opportunity to have my name be recognized around baseball as a guy who is a viable late-inning arm." Janssen was named Torontos closer in May 2012. He converted 22 of 25 save opportunities last season. Despite offseason shoulder surgery, Janssen picked up where he left off, locking down 30 of 32 chances this year. "It was hard to justify the injury early on," said Janssen. "I was telling guys that I feel like crap and I might have a one-two-three inning and theyre like, what are you talking about. It was hard to get through those first three months or so. I started to get into a nice routine, obviously I was further away from the surgery date and I hopefully Im able to power through this last stretch and get through the year." The shoulder condition has improved as the seasons worn on. Janssen, too, has been one of the more vocal Blue Jays about the unacceptability of the clubs poor performance. "This year has been a headache for me, a headache for a lot of guys," he said. "Im sure early on, I was driving the trainers crazy being in there trying to get right and feel comfortable. Cheap Nike Shoes From China. I started to feel a lot better lately and just bouncing back in catch and then out there on the mound as well so I guess theres a little satisfaction in that but bottom line, this season didnt go as planned. Although a successful personal season doesnt justify or doesnt sit well enough to overcome the disappointment." With a team-friendly club option for $4-million next season, Janssen is among a number of Blue Jays (Jose Bautista and Edwin Encarnacion are others) who represent great value. Given Torontos bullpen depth aside from Janssen – power arms like Sergio Santos, Steve Delabar, Dustin McGowan, Jeremy Jeffress and lefthanders Brett Cecil and Aaron Loup – general manager Alex Anthopoulos could use a reliever or two as a trade chip. The Jays have needs in the starting rotation, at second base, at catcher and possibly in the outfield. Anthopoulos could use a reliever as trade bait and still have plenty left were a move to be made. In the meantime, Janssen will continue to pitch when needed and attempt to set an example both on the field and off. "I dont know if I ever would have imagined being a closer saving 30 games but I wished, I thought and I hoped I could and it was just a matter of getting the opportunity," he said. "Its a nice little milestone but hopefully theres a lot more to go." ' ' '
