You'd think after the Pads pitched 17 innings last night that we could actually hit their depleted pitching.

duff!!

Managerial Quiz 2:

Assuming we don't score here, who pitches for us in the 9th?

 

[Stokes1931]

Duffman with the 2-out double.

Teams are way overplaying him to the opposite field. Perhaps he needs to work on pulling the ball a little more. He is a good oppo hitter, but not when they are playing him that way.

Nick!

This has to fire up Pagan...

 

[Mays-Fan]

Nick!

He's ready to go another 9.

 

[calsnowskier]

Nick!

His greatest skill is his ability to be eligible to play even when he isn't on the roster...

 

[Stokes1931]

Giants are only 6-39 with RISP the last six games.

RISP for the year is down to .249

Looks like Pagan let up just a bit there. Which I guess makes sense given he was resting his hammy. But less than full-strength Pagan is basically useless, so is it rude of me to say he should go all out there and not worry about the consequences?


edit: well, he got hurt anyway

 

[calsnowskier]

Why the shuffle? Did Pagan hurt himself?

Yes

So, since we are hitting so well, we'll keep Oxy on the bench without playing for the next two weeks, just to see how he recovers.

Can't play around this time, especially if Pence isn't 100% either.

If #sfgiants win 1-0 for the second straight game, it will be first time since 1980 vs. Expos then Mets. Starters were Ed Whitson, Vida Blue

Good time to bring Clayton Blackburn back up.

And with Parker and Mac both killing it in Sacto.

 

[SFGRTB]

That was not handsome

 

[Stokes1931]

Shark going for the Platinum Sombrero: he has 3 walks in 3 plate appearances. Maybe he will go 4-4.

Richmond lost for the 17th time in the last two innings. Came back to tie in the top of the 9th, only to lose in the bottom of the 9th.
