Unless they pull out a huge comeback in the late innings tonight, the Phillies will finish the season with a losing record. What a slide from being a playoff contender into August. They may have actually played worse baseball than the Giants this past month and a half.

NEED a win here. Let’s apply some pressure.

This is our playoffs, together, we’re Giant.

Bum bails out Crawdaddy.

 

[filosofy29]

Giants offense does what it does.

 

[calsnowskier]

Craw got saved there. But come on, dude...

 

[filosofy29]

1-0 Good guys! Hundley!

 

[filosofy29]

1st and 2nd nobody out and no additional runs.

Bum knuckling up.

I hate the free games all together. I paid for this shit, but everyone else gets it for free? Fuck that.

I thought you were cheap.

Has Bochy gone mad? Pinch hitting Tomlinson for Slater makes absolutely no sense.

I am. That’s why I am pissed they are making me pay for something they are giving to everyone else for free.

Slater must be fighting an injury, and he retweeked it tonight.

That said, I am not going to be sad when Kelby gets DFA’d in the coming weeks.

If you are really cheap, you'd not buy the package in the first place. Maybe you are only semi-cheap.

But Tomlinson!?!? Why not Hanson? Why not Shaw? Put someone in with pop. The Giants had a chance to score. Instead, double play, inning over. Ridiculous.

Only $100 a year. You can’t get through life never paying anything.
