The Giants are the 2012 World Series champions.

An RBI single by Marco Scutaro in the top of the 10th inning propelled the San Francisco Giants to a 4-3 victory over the Detroit Tigers in Game 4 of the 2012 World Series on Sunday night. With the win, San Francisco completed a four-game sweep and won the Major League Baseball crown.

The Giants scored the first run of the game, which came on a Brandon Belt triple in the second inning, but the Tigers would not be shut out for the third straight game. Miguel Cabrera hit a two-run home run in the third inning to give his team a 2-1 lead, which the Tigers held until Buster Posey's two-run home run put the Giants back in front in the sixth inning.

That lead didn't last long, as Delmon Young evened things up at three with a solo homer in the bottom half of the sixth. The teams were held scoreless until Scutaro's breakthrough hit in the 10th.
