I dont know that Im 100 per cent deserving of it, Bumgarner said. Theres plenty of guys that deserve it, also. Were just excited to be moving on.Bumgarner pitched shutout ball in a Game 1 win at St. Louis, getting the Giants off to a fast start in a best-of-seven series they won 4-1.Now, theyre headed back to the World Series for the third time in five years, looking to add to the championships they captured in 2010 and 2012.Bumgarner and the Giants will open the Fall Classic in Kansas City on Tuesday night.I really like the group of guys that we have here, and its going to be a fun series, said Bumgarner, who earned a $75,000 bonus for winning the award.He gave up two homers in Game 5 against St. Louis but retired his final 13 batters to keep the Giants close, winding up with a no-decision.Hes just so consistent, he really is, catcher Buster Posey said.

He didnt have his best stuff tonight, but he battles and he competes. You can hear it on the bench when he comes in, its like, If we hold em, were going to win. Then all you need is a little momentum.The 18-game winner has thrived in this post-season for a Giants team down a pair of pitching stars that helped carry them to their previous two titles. Right-hander Matt Cain is recovering from elbow surgery, and Tim Lincecum was demoted to the bullpen and has not been used in October.At 6-foot-5 and 235 pounds, Bumgarner is a huge reason the Giants keep winning.He tossed a four-hit shutout with 10 strikeouts in an 8-0 victory at Pittsburgh in the NL wild-card game, and has kept that momentum going.Now, he gets to lead the Giants into the World Series for a third time — and he has certainly shined on that stage before.The two-time All-Star has thrown 15 scoreless innings in World Series play, winning both his starts while striking out 14 and yielding five total hits.Pretty dominant stuff.Weve got a lot of guys thats been through this, Bumgarner said. They know what to expect and they are not afraid of the moment.Just like MadBum. ' ' '
