Nice to see Conforto and Yaz flipped in the outfield. Wonder why the Giants didn't put Flores on the IL along with Junis. With just 6 games and virtually no change at playoffs, why not call up a pitcher?

what's up with Harry? Thought he was penciled in...

 

[Stokes1931]

Giants' inept bats return for the first inning. Shocking. Even their hits turn into outs.

 

[calsnowskier]

What happened to JDD?

 

[calsnowskier]

Just saw the play. That looked bad. Bad like I wonder if he will be ready for ST or not.

 

[Stokes1931]

114 errors

He slid right past the bag. By a LOT. Don't they teach sliding these days?

 

[sf1giantfan]

Giants back to their hitless ways.

Flu.

It's been going around the clubhouse apparently.

 

[Stokes1931]

Wood pitched surprisingly well tonight.

 

[Stokes1931]

4 pitch walk followed by Soto clobbering a meatball.

I'm out.

 

[tzill]

And Walker is fried.

I still think he'll be a piece in 24 but he's cooked this year.

He should have been shut down two weeks ago. He's been overused.

Yep I agree. Who makes those decisions

@Stokes1931 , you'll "love" this one. The minor leagues saw 33 players have 20/20 seasons. Only one is in the Giants' farm and the Giants were very reluctant to give him a look.

Prospects set record number of 20-20 seasons in Minors this season

The decade of the 2020s is turning out to be the decade of the 20/20s. Thirty-three Minor League players met or exceeded the 20-homer, 20-steal plateau during the 2023 season, beating out the previous record (since data first became available in 1958) total of 27 set just last year. Most

Should be the FO.

Nice to see Wood and Hjelle pitch well today.

Walker should not throw another game this year.

Without looking, it's Fitz, right?

How did you know?

 

[Stokes1931]

In 301 previous big league games, Seth Lugo has never thrown a complete game nor a shutout. He will not do so tonight, but came darn close.
