2012 World Series

With the San Francisco Giants coming back from a 3-1 series deficit in the NLCS to beat the St. Louis Cardinals and the Detroit Tigers sweeping the New York Yankees, the matchup for the 2012 World Series is set.

The Giants will have home field advantage in the World Series by virtue of the National League's win in the 2012 MLB All-Star Game at Kauffman Stadum in Kansas City, MO back in July.

Here is the schedule for 2012 World Series (will be updated as warranted):
