Giants Prevail, as Wildcard Series Goes to the Wire
The Wildcard Series went the distance before it all was said and done.

The San Francisco Giants and the Arizona Diamondbacks went at it tooth-and-nail and when it was over at Chase Field, the winner was the Giants.

They put away Arizona 5-4 to cinch the series and won the right to move onto the Division Series.

For his fine play, even in a losing effort, Arizona catcher Alec Thorpe was given the series Most Valuable Player Award. He hit .545, scored 5 runs and batted in 2 to win the honor.

"It's nice that someone noticed my numbers, but I'd trade it in a heartbeat for a win," he said.

The San Francisco Giants will play against the San Diego Padres in the next round. San Diego had a bye in the Wildcard Series. The Division Series schedule will be announced after the Wildcard Series finishes.
