Game Thread: 10.3 Puds @ Charlotte

[tzill]

Did the Brewers look at the scoreboard and decide "our work is done, let's call it a game now"?

Probably, those phuking Tuesdays.

Basically.

A #1 is situational. There are 30 #1s, regardless.

An ace is a starter who would be a #1 on most teams, but brings a little something extra. He is not just an inning eater.

An Ace is a CY-level pitcher. Though sometimes, numbers don’t really apply. Bum was an Ace for us almost from day 1, for example. A single team can have multiple Aces, but only one #1, even though an Ace is BASICALLY a subset if #1s.

Go into a thread you have no interest in and declare you have no interest in the topic. LHG asked…

Um, is this thread now just about your pitching nomenclature? I hadn't heard.

You're testy today. I'm just busting your balls.

I suspect that if we see any Giant relievers pitch it will be Jackson and/or McGee. McGee, to get some rust off. Jackson only if two relievers are used, and him because he probably won't be on the postseason roster.

By the way, I don't understand calling up Long, not using him for two days and then sending him down for Jackson. Weird.

Hate to even say it, but I’m gonna need to see your and Cal’s vax cards.

On GameDay, was the overturned call the correct thing to do?

By the rules, yes.

By the integrity of the game, no.


It was one of those split-second base-touching transfers that get called…

Right? SS’s can do a phantom tag, but don’t you dare come off the bag for a split second.

So now you are attacking the victim?


My body, my choice!

They wanted a lefty for today is my only guess.

Is the phantom tag still a thing? I thought that ruling was reversed.

If it is still a thing, GREAT analogy.

No idea honestly, I’m drink.

I like how drink sounds. Not gonna change.

probably a skinny, pimple faced weakling lefty amirite?

phantom tag is gone, along with most slides into the pivot man.

with a sub average IQ, I think.

 

[calsnowskier]

Why did we have to finish vs the Padres? I can’t watch OUR broadcast of this game (and the aftermath)

 

[calsnowskier]

Coke-bottle glasses…

Damn, dude even attacked your IQ, forgot that. Wish you could shake his hand in real life. Then hit him with your lunch pail.

 

[calsnowskier]

As much as I would LOVE to see Webb throw a CG, I think it is more important to give McGee an inning of no-stress work…
