It warms my heart knowing the rookies are going to help us pull out a victory this evening

Well, the vets certainly haven't been able to do that much.

Why, exactly, are we concerned with whether or not we win this game?

Old habits die hard.

 

[sf1giantfan]

To give the rookies hope for their future… I mean our future.

 

[sf1giantfan]

Here we go…

 

[sf1giantfan]

I guess the players are still mad at Kap.

I actually understand because I am too

 

[Stokes1931]

Nice pitching, Harry!

 

[filosofy29]

Wtf was that? No way this team is well coached

 

[Stokes1931]

And immediately, Brebbia gives up a triple (to the catcher!) and a Sac Fly. (More of a misplay by our rookie SS who is playing CF?!?)

Yep. Your 2023 Giants.

Phuking Brebbia.

 

[Stokes1931]

Phuking Brebbia.

A decent CF would have caught that. But the Giants don't believe in decent CF's, so we have a rookie SS out there instead.

That was a great try and bad luck imo. The “sac fly” was a dumbass Yaz play.

 

[Stokes1931]

And Yaz K's looking. Again.

Both

 

[filosofy29]

Both

I mean you’re not wrong that the kid may be playing out of position, but looked like he got a decent jump on a ball tailing away from him. Although I haven’t seen a slow replay. Just came out of his glove hot. No excuse for Yaz. I’m not saying this team hates Kapler, but there’s zero chance in hell this team loves and plays hard for Kapler.

 

[Stokes1931]

Lucy and Fitz!

Should the 3b coach have sent Lucy home on that double?

 

[sf1giantfan]

Rookies so far tonight 2-6, 3 walks, 1 RBI

 

[Stokes1931]

I know it is baseball today, but I hate that Kap PH's guys when there is no reason early in the game. Davis came in for Wade, and struck out. Now here is a Dodger RHP reliever, and Wade is on the bench, with runners on 2nd and 3rd.

edit: OK, Davis walks to load the bases. Up to Flowers.
