At this point I almost hope that KC wins like 17-0. Get it out of their system. Peak too soon.

OT: So I don't spend any real time on the SH main MLB page ( I don't like HD). But on Twitter, see a lot of non-Giants fans who absolutely hate Posey. Rip him every chance they get for ruining baseball/the home plate collision and putting it all on him.

Isn't that a flawed thing though? I mean Bochy, Sabean, Matheny among others pushed for it. Plus with the NFL's issue with CTE and concussions, that was going to be an issue for baseball at some point and when it happened, plate collisions would have been changed.

Yet Posey gets most of the blame for it. Why?

Hate say this about any game, but it was lost when Peavy was announced as the starter. At least that's how it feels. I didn't start watching on TV until now and I was started listening on the radio when Peavy was facing Aoki.in the top of the 2nd Was Peavy really terrible or was he really just snake-bitten, as Krukow said on the radio?

Is that even a thing? That would give them more confidence/momentum.

Machi just sucks now. As ggod as he was early in the season, he's been terrible since September.

Gotta keep trying. Who knows what will happen. Don't worry, our key bullpen guys will only get in the game if we somehow make it close.

He looked good in the first. He was SCREWED on a called ball that was practically down the pipe, and that got into his head.

In the second, we was looking OK. He was hitting his spots pretty well, but he got BABIPed a few times, and then you could see in his eyes that he wanted to be anywhere but on the mound.

But do the three available today have 18 outs in their arms?

It would make them overconfident. And make us mad. That's not a bad combination.

That may have been the worst at bat of Posey's career.

May have been?

May have been?

I cannot imagine a worse AB in the history of baseball.


Pitcher walks the bases loaded and he FPGIDP. In game 6 of the World Series.

Fucking amazing.

4 serious goats in this game...

1) Peavy. Enough said.

2) Bochy. Bringing in Petit with runners on. Wow. Rookie call, Boch. Horrible, horrible call.

3) Belt. I am OK with the "decision" play. It wasn't great, but it was defensible. His play since has been bad. Bad positioning, bad non-pick... He just doesn't want to be there.

4) Posey. Worst. AB. Ever.

Where is everyone's (us fans) head at right now?

I want to feel like this game is "just not our night", but I am not feeling like tomorrow with Huddy is looking much different. I am trying to stay positive, but this game is a joke.

Perhaps I should just watch the Lakers get tuned up by the Rockets. That will at least make me laugh.....

If this game is conceded (pitcher selection says it is), why is Ishi still in over Perez? Go pure defense.

Also, move Posey to 1B and get Susac in there.

I'm stepping back because I know how this game can turn on a dime. A bad move here and there is bound to happen. We can throw up 7 runs in an inning just like they can or over a few innings. It's not over until the last out is made.

This guy is walking every Giant who sees 5 pitches.

So OBVIOUSLY the Giants strategy is to swing at the first pitch.

And the regular season Giants are back.

My fault fellas. I commented to my bro pre-game that the Giants have been putting together GREAT ABs all series. I Colin'd it.

Only 9 outs left now. Let Strickland go this inning and let Timmy pitch the last two.

Damn, I hate thinking about how we might lose the World Series because we got too loyal to veteran starting pitchers who just can't get it done. I know he gave up 2 runs tonight, but Petit probably should've started one of the games in this series.
