I monitored from my phone while the wife and I watched a series. I had to pause the series when Rogers dealt the cockpunch. I'm still angry. Glad they won, but feels like I can't enjoy it.

this bullpen man....

Of course you can't enjoy it. You're a lunatic.

As this year wears on ..... this game may be the defining moment of our season .... we enter the ninth with a 3 run lead --- we get two outs, two strikes on the batter and they have two on ... you know what happens next .... the game gets tied by an EWS .... .... unthinkable ... but the real turning point happens next ... Pujols rips into a pitch ... from the very start it looks as if it is gone ... and game over .... but Tauchman pills in back from over the fence (if you haven't seen the catch you can find video of it on the SF MLB site) .... what would have been our worst loss of the season is reversed .... and is now it's my personal favorite victory ... always great to beat LA .... but even better whren it unfolds like this!!!!!!

Compare your fandom with SF11704 above....wouldn't it be more fun to enjoy this unexpectedly awesome year?

 

[calsnowskier]

So is Tauchman, as a Giant, on par with Brian Johnson at this point?

If so, if he does nothing more as a Giant, I think he has engraved his name on the plaque.

we root differently. I would have been much happier with a 5-2 victory and a quiet ninth inning save by Rogers.

You do you though.

by and large, I am enjoying it. But the inordinate number of CPBS this year (8 and counting) really puts a damper on it sometimes.

Yes we do and I also respect your point of view. I don't pay much attention to all the surrounding metrics of the game. For me a win is a win and a loss is a loss.. wins are fun and losses suck. Yesterday was a bad metric day even though we won. Blowing another lead late in the game is never something that is very acceptable ... but for me ... the win makes it much more tolerable.

From your perspective there are quite a few different satisfaction levels in both winning and losing.
Losing 2-1 is imuch different than losing 8-2. Same with winning 2-1 is much different than winning 8-6.
