Giants sure are making it easy for Turley to his first major league no-hitter. Hill is batting 3rd?!?!

And the Giants score two in the first, on a Sac Fly and a groundout.

I guess they won't be no-hit nor shutout.

Let's see if they can score some more runs.

SDI? No.

 

[Stokes1931]

We score two. Cainer serves up two gopher balls in the next inning.

I was being over the top in my sarcasm. Nice to see them do something with those two runners they got. Of course, Cain has pity on two of the Twins' struggling hitters and serves up a couple of dingers to make them feel better.

Do other teams put out punt lineups once a week like the Giants do?

Seriously. It is like all the starters go out to diner and drinks every Saturday night and end up enjoying themselves too much...

Herk sets up some risp at bats....

edit: and Hundley cashes him in.

FIFY

I've barely been able to follow the squad for a few weeks now...this team, just a hot pile of suck.

 

[Stokes1931]

As I unofficially keep track of things, I notice that the Giants are 11-23 when having no 2-out RBI.

Good AB's by Pence, Hundley and Slater to get a run on and 2nd and 3rd and no outs. We gotta get another run out of this, right?!? RIGHT?!?

Not missing anything.

Nice to Slater playing well, though. Not certain he profiles to a starting MLB OFer, but he has certainly made McParker look bad.

 

[Stokes1931]

Terrible at bat by GorKys. Typical.

 

[Stokes1931]

2nd and 3rd no outs

blip

blap

blop

No more runs.

 

[calsnowskier]

At what point does KT start to make Panik sweat?

 

[Stokes1931]

Odds on Cainer with the SDI?

 

[calsnowskier]

SOMEWHAT OK with Gorkys and Cain failing there. That's just what they do.

But KT needed to deliver.

Not good

Mr. Weaver...

Paging Mr. Earl Weaver.

 

[Stokes1931]

Sano is looking like a future Big Papi. He's a large man.

 

[calsnowskier]

Why is Gorkys on this team?
