I want to see the Giants arrange the lineup to match the defensive numbers, just once this season. Has anyone on the MLB level done that before? I would Bill Veeck would have pulled one like that.

And this just in! Pomeranz gave up no runs in the 1st inning (he'll be lucky to make it past 4 innings with his pitch count)! Its a miracle! Rumor is the FO is drafting out a proposed deal to allow him to retire at Giant.

If he reties tomorrow, I'm all for it

After the obligatory five year extension, say, 5 years for $120M?

Which is more surprising?

The Giants beating the Dodgers?

No first inning runs allowed?

The Giants winning the first game of a series?

Pomeranz pitching five shutout innings?

Noggin pulling Pomeranz after five, and giving the bullpen some clean innings?

The Dodgers only hitting one homer?

Most certainly this. Pomeranz had the worst month in over 100 years of baseball for a starting pitcher, and he comes in and does this? Wow

The league is starved for bullpen, you are exactly right

I was busy all day yesterday and wake up today to see the Gs win vs ‘Shaw. Holy smokes! No one saw that coming. :yes::yes: Approved.

C’mon dubs, don’t go out like this. One game at a time.

Dubs’ chance to redeem 2016. Only if a relatively healthy KD returns. Raptors are a good team, and are a bad matchup. Dubs looking a little old and tired.

Raptors are also shooting on an historic accuracy clip. Can’t beat a team shooting like that, no matter who you are

Playing an extra season’s worth of games in a 5-year period will have its deleterious effects on a body.

He was also pretty gassed from playing one on five Wednesday. And what Cal said. No I don't think age is a factor, yet
