2-8 in their last 10 opening games of a series...

Just give me a non poop start and we'll go from there.

Giants say Kyle Harrison will start tomorrow. Harrison, Birdsong and Roupp are now all in the rotation.

Washington is playing well and getting better. Should be a tough series to start a difficult road trip.

WTF? The batter is allowed to swing.

Isn’t he?

Swing yeah, but he stood on the plate after he finished his swing. I believe it was a correct call

 

[stanford the manford]

Whoa.... great cover by Fitz

As an aside, we spent a few days in D.C. on our vacation return a coupla weeks ago. Visited friends and some of the normal sites. 1st time we went to the FDR Memorial at the lower end of the Mall. Recommended if you find yourself in the area

I think so too. It was bad luck. Like Chappy's liner; like Schmittys GIDP. No love from the baseball deities. This game is very trzill approved.

PB reminding all of us whiny little bitches why he is our starting catcher.

Sign of the (new) times...soft single from Chapman with one out, JHL gets from first to 3rd on a single

So a sac fly gets another run...

Pitching defense smarts just like 2010

And instead Flores gets an RBI single!

 

[tzill]

This bullpen man....legit.

(now that Trevino is #foreverdoyer)

 

[msgkings322]

FYWW!

Exactly our kind of win

 

[tzill]

nothing to complain about in this win, that's for sure.

Tomorrow Harry v. Irvin
Sunday Ray v. Soroka

no real advantage/disadvantage tomorrow; big advantage Sunday.

Let's go, boys.

Have you ever been to the FDR Library at Hyde Park, NY? I went there on my sabbatical in 2023. It was impressive and moving, and a really nice area of New York state. After that, I went to Cooperstown, which was very touristy, but well worth seeing.

Hyde Park is beautiful. CIA (not the gov org) is located there. I spent a few months training there.
