San Francisco is decked out in orange and black, but it has nothing to do with Halloween. The Giants have won the pennant — and fans are eagerly awaiting Wednesday’s opening game of The World Series.

The Giants, with their weird ‘dos, beards and undergarments have captured the City’s heart — but they face a formidable opponent in the big-hitting Texas Rangers.

Guests:

Jon Miller, play-by-play announcer for the San Francisco Giants

Ann Killion, contributing writer to Sports Illustrated and Comcast SportsNet Bay Area

Marty Lurie, Giants pre-game and post-game host on KNBR 680

Lon Simmons, longtime sports broadcaster for the San Francisco Giants, starting when the team moved west in 1958
