The first round of the baseball playoffs were awesome, with all four going five games and featuring one amazing comeback after another. In contrast, the World Series was a dud, with the Tigers leading for only 2 1/2 innings total (all in Game 4). Hats off to the Giants for a wonderful playoff run, and especially to the totally adorable Buster Posey:
