leads to a run and tying run on second. Pablo needs to get his shit together.

 

[Hangman]

lets get that double play and go into the 9th with the lead please

 

[xxERICSMITHXX]

One hell of a double play

 

[Hangman]

That is the double play we needed. Didnt think it would come that way though

 

[1phlapdown]

C'mon Craw!!!

Funny thing about me posting the Emma Watson gif is I know her. She was my cousins roommate at Brown. Since she was British she didn't celebrate Thanksgiving so she came to our family's dinner. She went again this last thanksgiving, but I didn't attend cause I had to work black Friday at midnight. She was really interesting to talk with.

Giants have now won the opening game of each series they have played.

 

[msgkings322]

Neither is this board.

I agree that our rotation is a concern, but Sabey Sabes has decided to roll the dice with this one. We best try and enjoy it.

Ugh.

Down 3-0 already to the Pebbles in the 3rd. And that with our best pitcher going. Good feelings about the 6-1 start are beginning to fade like morning fog.

Easy, kitten...

Also, they were never 6-1. 5-1 yes but then 5-2.

 

[msgkings322]

The question is: will tzill approve of this one?

I'm leaning no but it's not as obvious as you'd think.

MadBum now 5th on the team in RBI's, and has an OPS of 2.333.

MadBabe?

Nice. But how about Babegarner?

 

[tzill]

you have complete faith in the Giants rotation?

I trust Bumgarner, Hudson and Cain can still turn it around. But our rotation isn't remotely close to the strength it used to be

You understand there's a chasm between "complete faith" and "turned to shit," right?

Change your diapers.

How come Bumgarner now has a batting average of .667 (2 for 3, makes sense) and an OBP of .500 (wtf? 1 for 2, does the HR not count because you don't end up 'on base'?)

Sac fly. Counts as a PA, but not an AB. Anytime you have more SF than BB or HBP, your BA will be higher than your OBP.

When in doubt it's Simple Man...Grand Slam Giants win 6-5

When in doubt and down 2 runs in the 4th inning it's Simple Man just hit a Grand Slam .

Madison Bumgarner was down early and stepped up to the plate with the sacks loaded and the crowd ready for some fireworks. Bum unloaded a rocket high into the sky to the bleachers in left which will be remembered as the Grand Salami Rocket. It seemed to hang up in the sky for a while and just kept going and the fans let out a big WOW ! Bum had 5 RBI's on the night which said it all.

Bumgarner then went out and finished his 6 innings on the night giving up 4 ER on 9 hits striking out 7. The bullpen was huge and Romo was explosive in the 9th striking out the side with impressive brilliance. A full house was then treated to a fantastic fireworks show put on by the Giants organization. Smiles all around the yard tonight and the highlight was the Grand Salami Rocket that was set off by a Simple Man with a big heart. A great start to this three game series at home for the weekend.

Cain on the hill for a Saturday start.

Go Giants !!

You've heard of exaggeration, right?

I know you like to be the asshole on this board, maybe dial it back a notch

Games like this seem to bring out the dark side in many of us. Terrific comeback win last night.

Madison Bumgarner creates peace!

Nice. But how about Babegarner?

We'll know something is up if they move him to CF. Or sell him to the Yankees.
