4/28 GDT Champs at PIT

then again.....

Woo! Attababy!

 

[Heathbar012]

No seventh batter should go up to the plate expecting to get intentionally walked, but I think that's what Pedro was thinking. Likely, rightfully so, but that was an awful AB.

 

[Heathbar012]

Voges gettin' squeezed a bit. Brandon Wood has earned those calls?

 

[tzill]

Nice work, Vogey....do we send him out in the fifth?

 

[msgkings322]

I want to punch Vogey in his pussy.

Looks like your pussy punch got his attention!

 

[Heathbar012]

Way to battle. One more inning with the pitcher leading off, and that's a quality start, Mr. Vogelsong... in name only.

 

[calsnowskier]

He is good. Can the Giants just use the Pirates as their second baseman farm system?

The Giants have used the Pirates as their AAAA team (and garbage can) for years already...

Bonds, Schmidt, Sanchez, Lopez

Morris, Alderson, Rios, Bowker

 

[msgkings322]

Nice work, Vogey....do we send him out in the fifth?

I think they let him pitch until his spot comes up in the batting order, unless he struggles again.

 

[Heathbar012]

Nice work, Vogey....do we send him out in the fifth?

Yup. No danger of him batting this inning and the pitcher's spot due up for the Pirates. Now, if they pinch hit for Karstens.... maybe not.

 

[tzill]

71 pitches; if someone gets on in the top of the fifth I can see us pinch hitting Ford.

Edit: disregard....brain fart as to where we were in the batting order.

Always works, that vaginal hematoma....

 

[Heathbar012]

Bonds, Schmidt, Sanchez, Lopez

Send them Burriss and Schierholtz.

He'll need two more innings to get the QS....

 

[Heathbar012]

This season will vastly improve when Aaron Rowand is no longer the Giants' lead-off hitter. Why does that sound familiar?

 

[tzill]

64 pitches through five for Karstens....he'll go six, even with a 75 pitch "limit."

 

[Heathbar012]

He'll need two more innings to get the QS....

A win without a quality start is the goal of all sixth starters.

 

[Heathbar012]

Whoa. Easy, Voges.

 

[Heathbar012]

There it is. Good start to the fifth.

 

[Heathbar012]

Struck out McCutcheon last time with high hard ones. What does he do this time. Sliders away?
