Interesting that Bochy didn't start Rent.....man I fucking hate the doyers.

Braves going down to defeat again (it appears). Might be easier to catch the Braves and Pads than the Phils.

Thanks man. Been MIGHTY busy; checked out the ESPN message board and felt like I've been gone for several years. So much drama!!

Glad to be back, even if it's only for a couple of innings.

 

[gp956]

Gonna miss the first few innings. Don't let Zito blow it before I tune in.

Random thought: Nolan must be just a pain in the ass to watch a game with. I imagine him in the stadium sitting sternly with arms folded across his chest. Bad play -- "that's unacceptable!" Good play -- "good, now don't screw it up!"

A fucking treat that would be.

Nice.

And Livin would be the kid in all orange with the panda hat on who cheers too much when we get a hit, and whines too much when the team gives up a bloop single. You'd be thinking, "He's a youngin' who is a fellow Giant fan...Why do I want him to get hit by a foul ball?"

damn you furcal

 

[Stokes1931]

Evenin' gents. Nice evening for a ballgame, don't ya think?

 

[xxERICSMITHXX]

Come on Zito

 

[Stokes1931]

D@mn, Zito gives up the 2 run bomb to the 8th place hitter. I take that back about a nice evening for a ballgame.

 

[tzill]

Fucking Zito and FUCKING PANDA

 

[tzill]

We are NOT making Babs work.

 

[Stokes1931]

All season long, the Giants hitters keep trying to pull that low and away pitch. Why don't they just lay off it, or steer it to the other field? Uribe's grounder to short was well outside and low. And yet, he tried to pull it.

Season long puzzlement.

What the heck, you gotta ride the horse that brought you. Let's score some stinking runs!

 

[tzill]

Babs with 43 pitches through 3.....if we could just give him ONE stress inning, we can get into their bullpen early.

 

[xxERICSMITHXX]

Lets take advantage of this situation boys.

 

[xxERICSMITHXX]

That was a terrible AB, come on Pat.
