Game Thread: 4.24 There went the sweep (12:45pm)

GIDP leaders 2024:

27T Slater 3
68T Ahmed 2
68T Flores 2
68T Soler 2
151T Chapman 1
151T Conforto 1
151T Lee 1

Interestingly, the Giants are 4th best in MLB with only 13 GIDP hit into (unclear who hit into the other DP)

Could it be they are counting “strike ‘em out/throw ‘em outs” as GIDPs?

And he still ended up scoring (himself) on the play.

Damnedest thing I ever saw.

Yet quite unsurprising.

It isn’t like he didnt do it the previous day.

In fact, Chuck Norris was in attendance for that one, and was completely blown away.

Chuck Norris wants to be Nick Lowery when he grows up.

I wasn't there but I read that he threw himself out by 8 feet.

Impressive, as long as they don’t hit into double or triple plays instead.

They do a pretty good job of avoiding triple plays

Meh...league average.

Didn’t they hit into a triple play first game out of the break in ‘16? That kinda foretold the epic collapse we were about to witness.
