Madison Bumgarner breaks postseason innings record

madison bumgarner getty
Giants ace Madison Bumgarner entered Game 7 of the World Series in the bottom of the fifth inning. He allowed a single to the first batter but got out of that threat and set a new MLB record in the process ...

Bumgarner has pitched 48 2/3 innings in this postseason, an MLB record. Curt Schilling had 47.2 IP for Arizona in 2001.

Giants manager Bruce Bochy told reporters before the game that Bumgarner was probably good for 50-60 pitches of relief. The young left-hander was flat-out dominant against the Royals in his Game 1 and 5 starts.
