Yeah, sure I guess, it was kind of ugly in 2010 too. But still.

The offense was not near this anemic in the postseason of '10. They were able to score their own runs without having to rely on the opposing D. This team can not do anything without hand-outs.

Giants clearly just want to hit a walk off in the 9th. They saw St. Louis do it on Sunday night and thought it looked fun. So they want to do it

Let's face it, this is a lousy lineup. Bum dominated game one so it didn't matter. Unfortunately, he can't pitch every game.

Gotta win ugly. If Affeldt can throw up a zero we got a chance.
He did his job.

One thing I was wondering while driving home. Is Bochy at times too much of a "player's manager"?

-Keeping Lincecum on the NLCS roster and saying he wants to "give him an inning"
-Keep throwing Strickland out there.
-Keeping Blanco as the leadoff guy

I like the call to bring in Casilla right here. Best-throwing bullpen arm. We need three outs and then steal it in the 9th.

Bochy has the success to avoid too much criticism.

But I just don't get these moves. He sees all the stats we see (and many that we do not, to be fair). What does he see in Blanco leading off that we do not see? Pence did well there when he did it. Maybe there is some calculus that says he adds 1.4 runs per while batting #5 but only 1.1 when batting 1st, and Blanco adds 0.4 when leading off and 0.6 when batting anywhere else, so the net runs are higher with Blanco = 1 and Pence = 5 (the numbers are obviously BS, but you get the point).

I would have preferred that he had a worthless single. That way, they would have an argument to keep him in and keep Yadi out. As it is, they might as well get Yadi in there for his defense/pitching whisperer-ness.

I need a walk-off here.

We all need a walk-off here.

Have we had any walk-offs during this run ('10. '12, '14)?
