Metallica rocks AT&T Park and then Quiroz brings the house down with a walk off encore



Metallica performs the anthem
5/3/13: Bay Area heavy metal legends Metallica perform the "Star-Spangled Banner" before the Giants' game against the Dodgers


This stuff never gets old.

from Yahoo Sports:

The pinch-hitting Quiroz smacked a home run off former teammate Brandon League with one out in the 10th inning and the Giants overcame a seventh-run fifth by the Los Angeles Dodgers to beat their National League West rivals 10-9 at AT&T Park.
In beating the Dodgers in walk-off fashion for the second night in a row, the Giants capped their 11th come-from-behind victory of the season thanks to Quiroz's heroics -- the first walk-off hit of a big-league career that had previous stints with Toronto, Seattle, Texas, Baltimore and Boston.
"I learned not too long ago: You've got to take a shot," Quiroz said of swinging for the fences even while facing a two-strike count against League. "I hit it pretty good. When I hit them like that in BP (batting practice), usually they go out."
