Easy to say after the game starts with the Braves on 1st and 3rd with no outs, but I got a bad feeling about this one. Hard to sweep teams.

Yaz with the 2 out 2 run double!

Maybe I was wrong?

Another 1 run win..... last 7 games have been decided by 1 run. Stressful

We’re 5-2 in those games. We’re built for the torture

Wrong again msg! FYWW again, great pitching even Roupp had a QS

With the way the week started with two losses is was merely hoping we could get 4 of 7 and would have been OK with three wins but to go 5 of 7 seems extraordinary! This team keeps grinding even with below average scoring but when you have a top pitching staff it possible. YES keep this up and if the bats wake up for Adames and Fitzy and Flores keeps up with the clutch hitting this team has a real chance for a Wildcard. Still too early to proclaim that for sure but gives us hope for this season.

That's probably going to be overlooked in all of this. Roupp phuking BATTLED without his best stuff. We are watching him grow up right before our eyes.

93 win pace now.

Nice off day tomorrow, then on to Denver:

Tue -- Harry v Palmquist
Wed -- Ray v Freeland
Thu -- Bird v Senzatela

Significant pitching advantages all games. We should take this series; would be disappointing if we do not. Then, on to The Latrine.

Hope Chappy is ok.

Update: Matt Chapman got x-rays on his right hand and nothing is broken, he said. He said jammed his fingers backward when he dove back to the bag.

Randy Rodríguez (0.61) has the lowest ERA among qualified relievers at the moment. You want to know who is 6th? Erik Miller with a 1.25 ERA.

Broadcast said 7 consecutive 1 run games ties MLB record..... We're Number 1 !!!

 

[stanford the manford]

I'm going out on a limb and predicting the 3 games in 'Rado WILL NOT be decided by 1 run

It is amazing that Miller has the ERA he does considering the traffic he puts on base. His WHIP (1.615, highest among all pitchers the Giants have used this year) is higher than his ERA.
