Play: San Francisco -107 (action vs. Vogelsong)
Time: 8 p.m. ET
Reasoning: Ryan Vogelsong had a bad outing in his last start (against St. Louis), but even with that he's been decent over his last six starts (4.02 ERA). Kansas City has never seen him and he has a 3.23 ERA at home and he is about a half-run better during night games. He also has made a World Series start before (in 2012 vs. Detroit), and he pitched 5.2 innings of scoreless baseball in that one. Jason Vargas endured a four-start winless stretch in September where he gave up 18 earned runs in 18 innings and had to use side sessions to tweak his mechanics. And again, the Giants have the better bullpen (2.93 ERA vs. 3.14 ERA). I like Pablo Sandoval to get back on track after his 0-for-4 on Friday. Prior to that he reached base in 25 straight games. I also like Buster Posey to bust out, as he is just 2-for-13 in the series and hasn’t homered in the postseason. How long is that kid gonna remain quiet?
