Votto back at 1st for the Legs. He did not play when we spanked them in Cincy a few weeks back.

This should be a tough series for the boys. The Reds don't like us, and despite yesterday, we have not been playing well while the Reds have been playing well.

Pick em' with O/U at 7.5

I like the over a LOT. I may bet that a couple hundred.

As for the winning team, I am edging towards Cin, but I cant put "money" on that bet.

OK the SportsHoopla is over now and it's important that the Giants don't suffer the dreaded day after No-Hitter hangover game. Yesterday was amazing but the Reds are coming in and they want to kick the Giants ass especially now that Votto is back in their line up. You can bet that they have not forgotten 2012 and their meltdown at home in the playoffs. I am sure that Buster Posey's grand slam is still vibrating in their skulls. It's Vogelsong's turn to turn it up and pitch a good game. It's time to put the booze away and get back to the grind of the season and hopefully the No-Hitter by Lincecum can provide a spark for this team to get it back in gear.

Picks to click....Posey...Panda...and Colvin

Go Giants !!

Duane Kuiper continues to build a nice career calling big games. He added another No-Hitter to his collection of great calls as he just turned 64 a week ago. Happy belated Birthday to Kuip who is building a nice resume for the Hall of Fame.

How about a song for Smoothie.

0-1

(I will keep track until Stokes gets here)

 

[1phlapdown]

I wonder what the secret to efficiency is? Tim had it last night and Huddy had it for several games earlier in the season, and Vogey doesn't have it tonight.

 

[1phlapdown]

^^^Umm, well, until the 10 pitch 4th

 

[calsnowskier]

tz approved so far...

I personally love pitchers duels. This is a fun game...

 

[1phlapdown]

Wainwright no hits thru 4

 

[Band of Brothers]

Update on Belt in San Jose. Single in the 1st...In the 4th hit by pitch 1-1 San Jose down 6-0 in the 4th

 

[Band of Brothers]

I see Vogey has been doing well but just gave up that double to score a run ...Reds 1-0

 

[Band of Brothers]

Wainwright No- hitter through 5 innings 4 K's 1 walk in LA LA Land. No score.

 

[Band of Brothers]

Only 2 hits by the Giants so far....not good. Maybe a few too many pops by the boys after Lincecum's No-No. Gotta take this game tonight.
