We have a win boys! Nice to see the other team's bullpen meltdown this time.

Imagine the poo Dodger tzill is throwing somewhere in the Dodger forum-verse.

The Dodger board on the Hoop has a last posting in February. Truly a dead board there.

Just saw that Rogers has extreme reverse splits, .135 BA vs lefties, .318 vs righties (!)

So...again...Kap?

Kap is obviously a pitching matchup genius. He was clearly working toward the Bellinger matchup as that was the crucial at-bat. Smith would be too full of himself and obivously get under the first pitch in the zone and Kapler knew that Pollock would swing wildly at a ball outside the zone.

Never really looked much on that forum. Did it used to have more action during the season?

Should have won last night, should have lost tonight. Baseball folks, baseball.

Are you trying to say that there is a reason games are actually played?

Thank God too. If they were played on paper, the Giants would be in 3rd place at best.

Guess which team has the best record in baseball on July 21?

Hint: Its not the Dodgers.

 

[msgkings322]

Heard this on the broadcast, Giants have lost 8 games this year on walkoffs (like last night). But after tonight their record the next game is 6-2.

Sorry for not taking part in GDTs recently. I have gotten in the habit of watching games on a delay, and obviously that is not conducive to GDTs.

With Jenson getting booed, it got me thinking about who Giants fans last booed. I can’t remember anyone. McGehee wasn’t booed. Rowand wasn’t booed. Tejada?? Alphonso? Pierzynski? Juden?

Jeff Juden - now that is an obscure name you pulled out. I couldn't even remember him pitching for the Giants so I had to look that up. It was 1996 and his numbers weren't awful but weren't great either.
Did Armando Benitez get booed during his tenure as Giants' closer?
