9/11 Bum @ Cellar

Dogs in the top of the 9th:

Punto

M. Ellis

Belts slash line for the season looks like it is going to end up about where we all hoped it would, only 7-10 jacks short - I think most here would have snapped up 275/360/425 and 15-20 hrs.

Yup. He'll probably sit for a week after tonight, knowing Bochy's penchant to play the hot hand....:p

I don't have any fancy stats in front of me, but watching him play short...well, I'm not impressed. Average range, slow release, average arm at best. I wonder if the Dodgers move him to 3rd next year.

He was never a good SS, part of the reason tzill could almost reasonably equate him to Arias as a backup utility infielder. If he spends an off-season dedicated to SS, he'd probably return to mediocrity at that position. Long-term, I bet you he ends up in the outfield.

Panda returning to 2010 form. Does that bode well for the Giants?

Posey says: "You can rest when you die."

In fact, I would have pinch run for him there. Or leave him in - what could possibly have gone wrong?

Need 4 outs for a 6 game lead. Holding my breath a bit.

Update: 3 outs! Go Zona/Romo!

Agreed, but Posey just smashed a ringing double in the top of the 9th. Seems like he wants to stay in.

 

[Stokes1931]

Dogs down to their last out.

 

[ColinCoby]

Please don't walk him Romo. (Worked before)

 

[ColinCoby]

Never easy at Coors.

 

[gp956]

Can't relax with Romo.

 

[Stokes1931]

I dunno. Bring in Lopez to face Colvin the ph? Coulda, woulda, shoulda.

 

[Stokes1931]

Dogs lose. AGon strikes out to end it.

Ouch! Who is that?

 

[Stokes1931]

Gotta hold on here.

Hey Boch! Nice pitching change. You are only a batter late! Why the heck do we have so many arms in the bullpen if we aren't going to play the matchups? Romo has had a good year, but has give up way too many gopher balls to LHH recently.

 

[ColinCoby]

6 GAME LEAD!!

 

[Stokes1931]

There you go! How hard was that?

[gp956]

Giants Win! Whew!
