A win?!? On the road?!?



Stop the phone calls. Everyone gets pulled from waivers. We're going for the playoffs!

2-1 win, @tzill approved!

Doesn't feel like a win really, but whatevs.

A true FYWW effort, 8 innings of shutout ball by the bullpen.

Pre-ASB, Giants had 110 two-out RBI's in 99 games

Post-ASB, Giants have 34 two-out RBI's in 64 games

Clutchiness.

Speaking of which...

I think they gotta make the season 162 games again. 199 games is too many.

A CG tomorrow would enable the pen to rest.

Has a team ever not had a CG nor a GS in the same year?

Dang, I cannot even read my own Excel file properly!

Like most of what I post, just ignore this one.

I do take pleasure in the fact that over the last 10 games we are 5-5 and the Dodgers are 3-7. We suck but they really suck too.

Be nice if Machado is like their version of the Beltran trade.

I know the Mets are awful but this may have been Melancon's best game as a Giant

 

[tzill]

After the craptastic showing in Cincinnati, 5 innings of one run ball is very good. Not expecting much from him, but he delivered.

 

[tzill]

So what's the rating system?

Awesome

Fantastic

Solid

Abysmal

Craptastic

Dutch went 5 and gave up one run. That is more than solid, but perhaps less than fantastic. Is it mediocre? Awful? What?

He held the Mutts to one run, when the Giants' offensive offense didn't score a run. Period. That counts for something.

It was mediocre

 

[tzill]

In today’s game? By a 4/5?

Abso-fucking-lutely.

Dude, it isn’t 1972 anymore.

For Hollturd, it was awesome.

For an average pitcher, it was mediocre.
