World Series Game 5, Giants Vs. Rangers: Neftali Feliz, Tim Lincecum Trade Scoreless Eighth

Good news for the Rangers: Neftali Feliz kept the Giants from adding to their lead in the top of the eighth.

Bad news for the Rangers: Tim Lincecum kept the Rangers from battling back in the bottom.

Feliz came out from the bullpen in an unfamiliar position in the eighth, but he did the job with ease, needing just 11 pitches to work through the top of the Giants order. Andres Torres popped out in foul territory. Freddy Sanchez followed with a lineout to left, and after Buster Posey picked up an infield single on a swinging bunt, Cody Ross grounded out to second to end it.

Lincecum then returned to the mound, trying not to give the Rangers any life. They didn't get any life. The first batter - Mitch Moreland - swung and missed three straight times.

The next batter - Elvis Andrus - needed two pitches before he tapped back to the mound. And the last better - Michael Young - grounded out to third on a 2-1 count to send this game to the ninth.

Feliz will return to the mound for the Rangers, and as for the Giants, closer Brian Wilson is getting warm and preparing to try and seal the deal in the World Series.
