Slater gets a start! And the Giants face off against the Rockies 6 times in the next 9 days.

Rox are 15-22 at home.

That was not a bad pitch. Can’t get upset at Dutch for that one...

They just showed a few IG posts from the Giants players showing what they did on their day off. Craw at home with the newborn, Longo and his wife in wine country, Belt and Holland and another player all out together with their families on a roller coaster. Holland's IG handle is "dutchoven" LOL

 

[msgkings322]

Panda with the nice pick.

Apparently Hunter Strickland met his wife in kindergarten. Maybe she was helping him bandage his hand after punching the chalkboard?

 

[msgkings322]

Here's comes the EWS from Slater!

 

[msgkings322]

Ugh. He swung at the same pitch 3 times in a row way below the zone. Rookies...

Rookie move. That would just piss off the skip.

Nice try.

 

[calsnowskier]

Looks like I am on about a minute delay...

 

[msgkings322]

Nice play Belt!

 

[calsnowskier]

Amazing play!

GORKED!

How did he suddenly get power? Please not the dark needle arts...

 

[calsnowskier]

Who the hell is this guy? Andres Torres??

 

[calsnowskier]

GORKED!

How did he suddenly get power? Please not the dark needle arts...

The announcers have been saying for the last few weeks that he has always been banged up and this season he is actually healthy.

Belt has been shifted twice now. He needs to do the other way thing more (he's done it a couple times)

 

[1phlapdown]

Bettis' era in apr: 2.43, in may: 5.28, in jun: 10.35!!!

He needs to sacrifice a few ABs doing that just to have it in the minds of the defense. He can still try to pull it 95% of the time.
