Oh good, only half of their position players own our shaky starter.

I'm guessing you aren't going to approve of this game.

Is it too soon to drop Panda in the batting order?

Game ten and you've already dropped a couple diaper loads?

Tough crowd.

Thankfully, no. He's some 5'2" guy with a big fat wife, right?

Do you mean like in the old saying: beaten like a redheaded stepchild.

We are referencing an incident that took place years ago back when we were all posters at Disney.

Tonight Volgelsong gets the start and the General must be chomping at the bit to get back on the mound to pitch. The naysayers are out again this year saying he has lost velocity and wears down early in the game. Vogelsong has been through all the wars and has come through the flames to win a Championship. A good game here could get him back on track and his bulldog mentality gives him a step up to do just that. If he can get it rolling early his confidence will grow and maybe he can notch his first victory on the season.Giants can take the series 2-1 by winning tonight and go 3-0 in series this year.

The pick to click...TEAM Ball pulls it out tonight.

Any open base and it's four wide to Goldschmidt especially with 2 out.

Go Giants !!

In all seriousness, I've yet to figure out why Pablo is batting 3rd in the lineup. I imagine there is a good reason (I trust Boch), but given his season last year and free-swinging ways, why is he in the spot usually occupied by the team's best hitter?

I'd hit Posey 3rd, Pence 4th and Pablo 5th (until Scutaro returns and/or Craw becomes more consistent).

Maybe if they were back to normal,but the way they are hitting you can't have both easy outs right next to each other in the middle of the lineup.

Now that I've thought about it more, you can't really drop Panda because Morse isn't ready to be the 5th hitter, nor is Pence. Panda you have to assume will get in groove at some point. When he's on he's as good as any other hitters we have.

 

[ColinCoby]

Clearly safe at second.



…and they called him out. WOW.

It wasn't THAT clear. Craw's leg was blocking our view, he may have had his glove on the arm at the same time the hand hit the bag...not enough to overturn I guess. We catch a break.

 

[Band of Brothers]

To me he looked safe. This replay system is bogus right now. Needs some tweaking. I am glad though he was called out because Vogey was sitting in the dugout for like 3 min. The whole momentum of the game would of changed right there if they called him safe. Anyone have the time of that delay?

You are such a Homer.

 

[msgkings322]

What the hell was Fatty swinging at there? Jeez.

 

[Band of Brothers]

Kuip just said the delay on that replay was 3 min. They have to do this thing quicker than that.

 

[msgkings322]

I hate when a HIT by pitch happens when you graze the jersey.
