Game Thread: 5/6 Madres @ Champs

Aoki LF
Panik 2B
Pagan CF
Belt 1B
Crawford SS
Maxwell RF
Susac C
Duffy 3B
Heston P

Pagan back in the lineup (at least for now). Posey sits. sHits still riding pine.

Giants going for the sweep, with the kid on the bump.

4-1 good guys!

 

[calsnowskier]

Belt and Posey both with decent success against Kennedy. Crawford with a lot of ABs, but rather average results. Aoki 5-10 lifetime.

Kennedy owns Pagan and Blanco.

No significant history for Heston facing the Puds.

I was in a meeting and missed the start of the game. Has Heston been BABIP'd, or has he been hit hard?

The hits mostly came in one big bunch : the third. He's had runners on in every inning (i think) but in the 3rd, it was : single, single, single, single, ...

Duffy is saying "yes, I want to play every day" with his bat.

Hack-tor is saying "Sure, go ahead and DFA me" with his bat. If the Mets need a catcher, send Hector - it worked with that other NY team for Kontos ...

Apparently, sabes is trying to get Gee as well. I think Susac and a low prospect could get that done.

Only problem is I do not know that the Mutts need a serious catcher like Susac. They only need a backup.

Glad I missed this one.

Giants now have 12 consecutive SDI

In the last 7 games, the Giants have LOB 7-7-8-7-7-7-5

Giants are 0-3 with 1 walk or less

37 of the Giants' 88 runs have come with two outs. (42%)

Giants hitting .222 with RISP, good for 25th in MLB

Huh, it looks like Moses didn't have it in him today. Belt is heating up tho. And the dogs are losing 6-2 in the 7th

Hey we're making progress at least. A couple of weeks ago it was 25 points lower.

Their nadir was 4/15 when they hit bottom at .171 with RISP.

Since then, they are 37-148 (.250)

Not great, but better.

 

[Band of Brothers]

Went to the game. Kind of flat. Nice day but no sparks on the field.8 wins in a row. Can't win them all.

Go Giants !!
