GDT: 5.31.13 Last Year's NL Best vs. Second Best

[SFGRTB]

Silver lining, Cain has never pitched well against the Cards. His ERA is 5.60 now, take out the 2 outings against the Cards and his ERA is 3.71

Also, this is interesting, maybe the Cards picked up something on Cain, tipping pitches?

Can we please stop the Blanco batting leadoff experiment?

The good news? The Giants have shut out the Cards in 6 of 8 innings so far.

The bad news? The Cards scored 7 runs in one inning.

Can we just call the game and start the next one?

Towers: 2 FPOM, and a single on the 2nd pitch

Arias: pinch hits and FPOM

Not that it makes a difference, and there is lots to complain about today.



Tony Cruz comes into the game batting .133, and has two doubles and two RBI's.

Kontos above the Bombko line as well as Cain, and pitching his way back to Fresneck.

I hate the Cardinals. Hate 'em.

Finished lurking the 1st game. In and out running errands and stuff. 8-0 ... very disappointing. As MSG stated ... when Zito is throwing better games them Timmy, Vogs and Cain .... sure the hell makes you step back and wonder what the hell is going on.
Cards vs. Cain in 8 of his 9.2 innings: 0 for 24, 9 Ks, 0 BB. Cards vs. Cain in other 1.2 innings: 16-19, 2 BB, SAC.

That stat is just sick ... also fucking unbelievable ... all this damage in just 2 innings ..
