GDT World Champs @ Sandy Eggo 7/15

[Stokes1931]

From Baggs:

Only change from Thursday’s lineup is at catcher, but it’s not new Giant Hector Sanchez. No surprise, but Chris Stewart starts alongside Tim Lincecum. They’ve worked well together.

Sanchez is on the sheet and available off the bench.

CF Torres
2B Fontenot
3B Sandoval
RF Schierholtz
1B Huff
LF Ross
SS Crawford
C Stewart
P Lincecum

Nobody with much experience against Sugar Shane tonight. Towers is 3-4 against him with two doubles. O-Dawg 9 for 22 vs. His Freakness.

Happy Lincecum Day; 4-1 good guys.

 

[Stokes1931]

OK, Audrey gets a pass for the game tying homer last night. But striking out with a RISP in the 1st does not build my confidence in him.

Panda with the Sac Fly to drive one in. Still needs a hit to keep it going.

Hope the good Timmy shows up tonight and throws strikes, and K's a bunch. Oops. Leadoff single, and a wild pitch. Padre on 2nd and no outs. Not what we want with a one run lead right out of the chute.

 

[TheSaboteur]

Lincecum determined to give up the lead.

 

[Stokes1931]

I may have to pull out the ugly uniforms early tonight!

 

[TheSaboteur]

I can see the fear in Lincecum's eyes. He knows the league has figured him out!

 

[Stokes1931]

Sit down, O-dog!!!!!

Timmy pitches out of it. Still 1-0 good guys.

 

[TheSaboteur]

Ross is boss.

 

[Stokes1931]

CRoss homers deep to left.

2-0

Thank you!

 

[Stokes1931]

See, even the mere threat of the ugly uniforms made Timmy pitch better and Cody hit better....

 

[TheSaboteur]

Was that Stewart's maximum power?

 

[Stokes1931]

Even Timmy got a hit! But Towers K's to end the 2nd. I looks like Towers is a bit more focused, and is having some better AB's. We need him to be a table setter!

 

[Stokes1931]

Snakes losing to the Bums, 2-0 in the 6th.

Rox beating the Brewers, 4-0 in the 8th

 

[Stokes1931]

OK, cue me:

I HATE giving up leadoff walks. Nothing good happens from them, and we just saw that here in the 4th.

 

[SFAnthem]

damn, 2 90 foot gifts (after the blown call by the 1st base ump) cost the Giants

 

[SFAnthem]

OK, cue me:

I HATE giving up leadoff walks. Nothing good happens from them, and we just saw that here in the 4th.

Especially to a mild threat like this Gonzalez.

 

[Stokes1931]

Our pitchers just cannot seem to hold men on base.

 

[Stokes1931]

And then a 4 pitch walk to a guy hitting .159?

What the heck, Timmy?

 

[SFAnthem]

Our pitchers just cannot seem to hold men on base.

Our catchers cannot seem to hold onto the ball, too.

 

[Stokes1931]

Timmy fighting himself out there. 31 pitches so far in this inning.
