8-1: Slytherin at No Help

He looks like he has one of those “sick to your stomach” aches in his ankle right now.

Ouchie…

Welp. One run will have to do. Let's hold that lead!

Lol Bailey is insane

 

[Stokes1931]

Bailey with the save!

Giants 1-0 with Pollock in the lineup. FZ is a genius.

Great game though. Much needed win over the team breathing down their neck. Get another one tomorrow.

Lol Bailey is insane

The first game I saw in Cincinnati, de la Cruz led off with a single. He immediately took off for 2nd on the next pitch, and Bailey threw him out. And it wasn't close. de la Cruz just jogged back to the bench, looking at Bailey, and shaking his head. de la Cruz is really, really fast, too.

As insane as Bailey is, let’s not forget Sabol’s throw to second. That was the throw of the game.

I mean, in 2010 we didn't hit a lot. But we had more than this...

And we had a very good bullpen, but the vast difference is the starters. Webb and Cobb are good but not peak Lincecum, peak Cain, peak (was only like 2 years) Sanchez, and up and coming Bumgarner.

Dang. Here I am in Houston. I was tempted to go to tonight's game. Mostly because it was $1 hot dog night. And what did I miss? A no hitter! And almost a perfect game. The pitcher faced 27 hitters. Walked one who was erased on a double play.

I’ve watched a few other teams broadcasts and when talk turns to catchers his name is coming up. Respect around the league.

We did have a confident young catcher in 2010.

Can Crawford be the wild card? Overall stats not good, but hits great with RISP and has a knack for RBIs...

The one we have now is a better fielder though....

The anti-Flores?

And a worse hitter…but point taken

 

[msgkings322]

Just curious after Bailey and Sabol who is our emergency catcher? I remember when it was Panda, wanting to see him play there

 

[msgkings322]

The anti-Flores?

Yep Flores hitting great but it feels like lots of empty calories

But on this lineup I beg for it give me more empty calories like his!

Glad Flores got to rest and we still won

[msgkings322]

Can we give some love to the pitching today? Cobb gutted out a flu game and had a QS, the 2 relievers were great and let the regulars rest. Nice win for sure, vs a wild card competitor

 

[msgkings322]

Manaea figuring it out like this would be a HUGE add almost like...a trade!

Because if we do make the playoffs I guess they're gonna test the bullpen centric modern game, 2 starters then bullpen games with multiple guys who can get you 3 innings. Literally 2 starters and 11 'openers/relievers'

If the Giants are gonna prove me wrong the pitching is going to have to carry them. And it's not really bull pen it's 2 starters and 11 other weapons
