Nunez hasn't had an AB in over a week, so he is the PHer against Chapman. Makes sense.

Strike 1 to Pence was at least a full ball width outside. That dictated the entire AB from there.

Yeah and he couldn't run any faster than Belt down the line. At least Belt may have walked.

Great first 7+ innings

Let's be honest it was a great game. And yet more proof why W-L records don't mean shit for starters.

One more thing, I hate listening to Matt Vasgersian. Unfortunately we'll probably have to listen to him all series. Smoltz was fine.

Both are way better than Joe Buck at least. I had the sound off.

If it ends in a loss, it wasn't a great game.

Shark will be a stud tomorrow.

Between tonight and tomorrow, tonight's game was the one that was targeted as a win. Crappy base running early, and minor ump-jacking late cost us the game.

Cueto is an absolute beast. He was total nailz tonight, and I don't have a bad word to say about him.

I agree to a point. Even with better base running and good umpiring, Lester was equally beasting.

No arguments. Lester is a beast. But how does Hernandez get thrown out by that much? He didn't get a jump. How do you NOT get a jump against Lester? And the Giants were swinging at EVERYTHING. I suspect they had Sandoval assisting Bam Bam with the game plan tonight.

As SFGTB pointed out that was probably the plan, jump on the fastballs Lester likes to throw early in counts
