Lets get on a roll!

Pedro does some major damage

 

[Darkstone42]

Good thing our offense showed up tonight.

Man this turned into a 49'er /Steeler defensive struggle.

 

[element1286]

What a damn disaster. Something needs to be figured out with this pitching, everyone is terrible. That's 8 straight games of 5+ runs allowed by the pitching.

 

[Darkstone42]

Sanchez threw another one away, and it cost us a run.

 

[Darkstone42]

At least we got it back.

 

[Darkstone42]

Chuck's having some control problems. I wonder why the benches were warned, though. I mean, a pitch that hits a guy after a bounce on a two-strike curveball clearly intended to produce a swing and a miss seems like an odd time to issue a warning...

 

[Darkstone42]

Somehow, he managed to give us seven solid innings despite not having his best control.

 

[Darkstone42]

Oh wow, make that eight strong.

And Watson got out of a jam to give us a chance to win it in the home half of the ninth. Come on, bats.

 

[Darkstone42]

A baserunner is a good start.

 

[Darkstone42]

Well, there goes that.

 

[Darkstone42]

This will be reviewed, and it will be overturned, and we will win this ballgame! Marte with a triple and a run on the error at third!

 

[Darkstone42]

And it's official. Raise the Jolly Roger!

 

[Darkstone42]

What an exciting way to win a ballgame. And that might have been the first win on an overturned call, too.

 

[HammerDown]

Very nice win, fellas!

 

[element1286]

Good job from Marte, he didn't need to hustle for a triple out of the box.

And Pence is not very good at playing that wall.

 

[stillmatic32]

Great finish last night. Be nice to get two of three from a tough Giants team.

 

[Darkstone42]

Belt belted that one.

1-0 Giants, and hopefully Cole settles in for the rest of the game, and we get our bats going to support him.

 

[Darkstone42]

I really don't like Snider as a leadoff hitter, but Lincecum put him on for free, so at least he gave us a baserunner to start the first.
