10/6 GDT Gnats @ Bum

Damn!!

 

[msgkings322]

Ugly pitch to swing at strike 3

 

[Mays-Fan]

Dang. Second pitch looked outside.

 

[calsnowskier]

Un needed dive, but I will take it.

Almost a banana route...

 

[calsnowskier]

If Williams was our manager, would he yank Bum here?

 

[calsnowskier]

Both pitchers at 43 pitches.

Bum through 3, Fister through 2.

I gotta disagree on both points, and vehemently so. If you've ever played outfield, the most difficult ball is the one hit right at you. You don't have the benefit of seeing any sort of side angle which is the biggest clue as to how far the ball is hit. Also, as the color guy here said, sometimes when the ball is hit solidly, it can have no spin, like a knuckle ball. A 200 foot knuckleball at 100 mph.

Yes, we have no bananas.

Panik did go 2-5 in Game 1, including a triple.

Blanco........

MadBum dialed in now. Jus get him a couple runs and I think we can close this one out.

You're right, sorry Joe!

Once I saw the dive again and from a different angle, I agree he needed to dive to catch it.

However, it was "almost a banana route". It was not a banana route, just ALMOST one. He broke back on the sing and had to change his direction once he saw the ball.

He also had the walk in game 2...


BIGGEST

WALK

EVER

 

[msgkings322]

What the fuck was that? Hit and run? Why now? STraight steal with Belt?

 

[calsnowskier]

Bum is dealing.

Afternoon, gents. Looks like runs might be scarce today.

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

You just see the pitcher in front of you walk, so you hack at the first thing you see.

The sun doesn't help either . Span had trouble with Ishi's ball, too.
