Why are the Giants always 1 batter behind in terms of the AB's we need. Hundley has the AB Crawford needed

 

[SFGRTB]

Specs with the wheels! (x2)

Certainly, couldn't ask for much more, was nails after the first few innings (except that 1 pitch to Schebler).

ANd he's out there again throwing pitch 116...we often forget they didn't used to care much about pitch counts and pitchers somehow played for decades.

Pretty much all we thought about Hundley is right...... God awful defensive catcher

But his bat has been so . . . uh . . . never mind.

 

[msgkings322]

Panik is good at fielding.

Wow.

Backup catcher guys. Can you even name one on another team?

 

[msgkings322]

Well done Boch, don't wait to pull him

Taylor Barnhart. Jett Bandy. Alex Avila.

Taylor Barnhart. Jett Bandy. Alex Avila.

Are any of them better than Hundley? Significantly so?

The problem is they brought him in because they thought he was a good defensive catcher and specifically for his bat, even though we knew his defense was garbage and his bat isn't good, even for a catcher.

 

[msgkings322]

Crawford can field his position too

Well, I'm still concerned about the guy coming off TJ, and facing a lineup a 4th time

How did we know he was terrible and they didn't?

Wow.

That was nice

 

[SFGRTB]

I'm sure they knew he was not great but they tried to sell it that he's good.

 

[SFGRTB]

Stepping off the mound is apparently a balk

edit: reminds me of that one time where apparently you can balk after calling "time"

 

[msgkings322]

That inning showed the importance of defense. Well done, G-men

Crawford has only been back a few games and it's already so nice having him back out there. For some reason, he seems to make the guys around him better too.

 

[msgkings322]

Again Craw with the leather

 

[msgkings322]

Old Man Span tracks it down
