If you don't believe him, ask the Oakland A's. The Royals stole seven bases in their 12-inning win over the A's, \u003ca href=\"http://m.mlb.com/news/article/97144238/royals-seven-stolen-bases-against-as-in-al-wild-card-win-tie-mlb-playoff-record\">tying a major league record\u003c/a> for bases stolen in a single postseason game.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They're a team that runs a lot,\" said baseball writer Dan Fost. \"Most managers are scared to make an out on the bases, that's kind of a cardinal rule, [but the Royals] showed no fear, and were stealing second base, third base with impunity. I think that's going to be a scary thing for the Giants.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jon Miller agrees that the aggressive base running will be a challenge for the Giants' pitchers and Buster Posey -- who has been behind the plate for every game of the Giants' postseason.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Buster Posey surely has a strong arm, but it starts with the pitcher,\" said Miller, noting that base runners have been more succesful against Tim Hudson than the other starting pitchers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>2. Heroics Aside, the Royals Are Deeper Than the Giants\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Michael Morse came off the bench to tie the St. Louis Cardinals in Game 5 of the National League Championship Series. And we all know \u003ca href=\"http://www.mercurynews.com/tim-kawakami/ci_26745112/kawakami-put-travis-ishikawa-among-san-francisco-giants\" target=\"_blank\">what Travis Ishikawa did\u003c/a> in the bottom of the ninth. So it's natural to think the Giants have an advantage in their reserves. Not necessarily so, said Killion, who noted the \"Giants have a shorter bench then they've had in past World Series.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When asked to size up Kansas City's bench, Ratto said three things give Kansas City an edge: \"designated base-stealer\" \u003ca href=\"http://ftw.usatoday.com/2014/10/terrance-gore-kansas-city-royals-mlb-speed\" target=\"_blank\">Terrance Gore\u003c/a>, \"Giants-killer\" \u003ca href=\"http://www.rantsports.com/mlb/2014/06/22/san-francisco-giants-rumors-trading-for-minnesota-twins-josh-willingham-makes-sense/\" target=\"_blank\">Josh Willingham\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.kansascity.com/sports/mlb/kansas-city-royals/article3005416.html\" target=\"_blank\">Jarrod Dyson\u003c/a>, who gives the Royals \"the best defensive outfield in baseball\" when he comes in for Nori Aoki.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>3. Power Pitching vs. Artful Pitching\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ratto points to the Royals' bullpen as another advantage for Kansas City. Set-up men Wade Davis and Kelvin Herrera and closer Greg Holland all bring it -- they feature fastballs in the high 90s and nasty breaking stuff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The Giants are an odd team in that they don't have any power pitchers except for Hunter Strickland,\" said Ratto, \"whereas the Royals have three upper 90s fastball guys. And that's a huge advantage for them because you can't hit that many guys that hard that often.\" The Giants, on the other hand, pitch with \"art and guile.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. \u003cstrong>Don't Expect Mistakes ... or an Easy Win\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Royals \"basically make you play perfect baseball to beat 'em and that's been particularly true in the last month, when they've only lost four games,\" said Ratto. \"They're that fast, they don't make mistakes in the field, and when they get that kind of starting pitching that gets them to that bullpen, they are a very tough nut to crack.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>5. Manager Bruce Bochy Is a Bit of a Genius\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's a good thing for the Giants that difficult cases are Bruce Bochy's specialty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's pretty much universally considered that Bruce Bochy is the best postseason manager going in the game right now,\" said Killion. \"This year may be his best managing job considering what's happened to this team -- all the injuries, losing Matt Cain, who was considered the horse of the rotation, Lincecum falls out of the rotation, they lose their backup catcher, they lose their first baseman for a long stretch of time, they lose their center fielder ... so many things went wrong for this team ... what Bochy has done this season has been pretty remarkable.\"\u003c/p>\n\n",

I think that's going to be a scary thing for the Giants.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jon Miller agrees that the aggressive base running will be a challenge for the Giants' pitchers and Buster Posey -- who has been behind the plate for every game of the Giants' postseason.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Buster Posey surely has a strong arm, but it starts with the pitcher,\" said Miller, noting that base runners have been more succesful against Tim Hudson than the other starting pitchers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>2. Heroics Aside, the Royals Are Deeper Than the Giants\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Michael Morse came off the bench to tie the St. Louis Cardinals in Game 5 of the National League Championship Series. And we all know \u003ca href=\"http://www.mercurynews.com/tim-kawakami/ci_26745112/kawakami-put-travis-ishikawa-among-san-francisco-giants\" target=\"_blank\">what Travis Ishikawa did\u003c/a> in the bottom of the ninth. So it's natural to think the Giants have an advantage in their reserves. Not necessarily so, said Killion, who noted the \"Giants have a shorter bench then they've had in past World Series.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When asked to size up Kansas City's bench, Ratto said three things give Kansas City an edge: \"designated base-stealer\" \u003ca href=\"http://ftw.usatoday.com/2014/10/terrance-gore-kansas-city-royals-mlb-speed\" target=\"_blank\">Terrance Gore\u003c/a>, \"Giants-killer\" \u003ca href=\"http://www.rantsports.com/mlb/2014/06/22/san-francisco-giants-rumors-trading-for-minnesota-twins-josh-willingham-makes-sense/\" target=\"_blank\">Josh Willingham\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.kansascity.com/sports/mlb/kansas-city-royals/article3005416.html\" target=\"_blank\">Jarrod Dyson\u003c/a>, who gives the Royals \"the best defensive outfield in baseball\" when he comes in for Nori Aoki.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>3. Power Pitching vs. Artful Pitching\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ratto points to the Royals' bullpen as another advantage for Kansas City. Set-up men Wade Davis and Kelvin Herrera and closer Greg Holland all bring it -- they feature fastballs in the high 90s and nasty breaking stuff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The Giants are an odd team in that they don't have any power pitchers except for Hunter Strickland,\" said Ratto, \"whereas the Royals have three upper 90s fastball guys. And that's a huge advantage for them because you can't hit that many guys that hard that often.\" The Giants, on the other hand, pitch with \"art and guile.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. \u003cstrong>Don't Expect Mistakes ... or an Easy Win\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Royals \"basically make you play perfect baseball to beat 'em and that's been particularly true in the last month, when they've only lost four games,\" said Ratto. \"They're that fast, they don't make mistakes in the field, and when they get that kind of starting pitching that gets them to that bullpen, they are a very tough nut to crack.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>5. Manager Bruce Bochy Is a Bit of a Genius\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's a good thing for the Giants that difficult cases are Bruce Bochy's specialty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's pretty much universally considered that Bruce Bochy is the best postseason manager going in the game right now,\" said Killion. \"This year may be his best managing job considering what's happened to this team -- all the injuries, losing Matt Cain, who was considered the horse of the rotation, Lincecum falls out of the rotation, they lose their backup catcher, they lose their first baseman for a long stretch of time, they lose their center fielder ... so many things went wrong for this team ... what Bochy has done this season has been pretty remarkable.\"\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
