McCray - cf

Chapman - 3b
Conforto - dh
Fitzgerald - ss
Encarnacion - 1b
Matos - rf
Luicano - 2b
Casali - c
Bivens - p

I wonder why Yaz gets the day off instead of Conforto? Nice to see McCray at the top of the lineup.

Because our manager is _________

 

[Stokes1931]

Chappy with the 2-run homer (23)

Jerar with the EWS (3)

Matos solo homer (5)

6-0 Giants

2-2 with RISP!!!

 

[Stokes1931]

McCray strikes out for the first and third outs of the inning. Now 3-3 on K's, going for the dreaded Sombrero del Oro.

He has impressive gifts, but he's gotta learn how to strike out less often if he's going to stick at this level.

Bivens has had an interesting journey. He is 30+

But if he keeps pitching this way, there may be a place on the staff for him next season.

He's a K machine, for sure. Still young though.

Would be nice to see them take a series before the off day.

4 home runs by the Giants, what the hell is going on?

 

[sf1giantfan]

Fitz 13th error, doesn’t anyone call out, “I got it anymore?” Plus once he drops it he doesn’t make any attempt at retrieving it.

Maybe he is a better fit at 2nd?

 

[sf1giantfan]

Doval being Doval. Does anyone know if he is related to the great Armando Benitez? I’ll wait for the reaction.

 

[sf1giantfan]

Giants needing more home runs in the 9th inning.

 

[sf1giantfan]

Giants inching up to .500

Except the W, that was nice

A win is a win I guess.

Tonight is the swan song for the creamsicle jerseys. They were not the best looking jerseys but I guess I'll kinda miss them.

They have the new ones coming, and they need to market the shit out of the new ones.

Which of the two paths do you suspect ownership values more? Wins in the Creamsicles or sales from the new ones?

Depressing, but point taken. Maybe the new ones will have the same effect.
