The Giants placed themselves in an unenviable position Friday night: hoping to return to Kansas City next week. San Francisco's 3-2 loss to the Royals in Game 3 of the World Series gave K.C. a 2-1 lead in the best-of-seven matchup and ensured that the Giants can't win the Series at home, where Games 4 and 5 will be played. The Giants must win one of those two games at AT&T Park to force the Series back to Kansas City.
