Pablo Sandoval

Pablo Sandoval (48) of the San Francisco Giants reacts after he is unable to get out Allen Craig (21) of the St. Louis Cardinals on an infield hit in the seventh inning in Game Four of the National League Championship Series at Busch Stadium on October 18, 2012 in St Louis, Missouri. Sandoval, who had a disappointing regular season that was marred by a hamstring injury and subsequent weight gain, has been on a tear in the postseason entering the World Series.
