SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) -- The San Francisco Giants are back in town, trying to get some rest from Saturday's marathon win over the Washington Nationals and prepare for Game 3 of the NL Division Series on Monday.

The team bus pulled into AT&T Park around 6 a.m. Sunday

Broadcaster Mike Krukow was one of the first to get to his car.

Madison Bumgarner, the Giants ace, will pitch in what could be the deciding game Monday.

With Saturday night's win, The San Francisco Giants extended their postseason winning streak to 10.

That's the third longest in big league history. More importantly, it means they are just one win away from advancing to the National League Championship Series.

Giants fans were on the edges of their seats for hours, and celebrated when the team finally got the win.

But it was worth the wait because once again, the Giants did not disappoint in October.

ABC7 News talked to several folks who plan on playing hooky from work and school.

The game is officially sold out, but nearly 4,000 tickets are still available on StubHub, starting at $95 each.

Giants fans say the potential to see the team clinch is priceless.

"I don't even know if we can explain the excitement, you know the anxiety, I think they can do it," one fan said.

"I think it's great because all of the hometown fans are going to be here to support everybody and I think that will push everybody over the edge," Rachael Hall said.

Grounds crews have been busy decking out the stadium with bunting and working on the field. Everything is a go for Monday.

The Giants are now up 2-0 in their playoff series. They need just one more win to move on.

Game time for Monday's Game 3 matchup at AT&T is at 2:07 p.m.

If necessary, Game 4 will be played at AT&T Park on Tuesday night.
