The Giants became the first team to throw consecutive World Series shutouts in nearly a half-century, blanking the Tigers 2-0 on Saturday night for a commanding 3-0 lead.

Ryan Vogelson, Tim Lincecum, and closer Sergio Romo combined on the 5-hit shutout.

After playing a nearly perfect Game 3, the Giants will turn to their ace Matt Cain to try for a sweep Sunday against Max Scherzer.
