Belt 1B
Posey C
Crawford SS
Pence RF
Gomez 2B
Hernandez LF
Blach P

Hernandez is really starting to piss me off. All my griping about him, and now he is playing like our best OFer for approx a month now.

But, yea. Giants getting their asses handed to them again in the 5th.

Wow. The boo-birds were out in force on that play (Nunez thrown out at 3rd).

Not sure I remember boo-birds at AT&T...

Giants 3-4-5-6 hitters 1-16 today. No wonder the boo-birds are out. If it isn't Whiteside's fault, fire You-Know-Who!

Crawford and Pence look tired and overmatched

Belt is NOT a #3 hitter

What the heck, moving chess pieces around on this board simply turns a 105 loss team into a 102 loss team. These guys are collectively terrible this season. Play the kids, what few kids we actually have.

Giants hitters bat .400 with RISP today.

Hope tzill is enjoying himself wherever he is, he saw this train wreck coming pretty early.

In this series, the Giants (lost 3 of 4 at home to the Padres), the Giants had 8 doubles and one homer.

The lowly Padres, with all their Rule-5 players, had 9 doubles, three (3) triples, and 6 homers.

The Giants have no power, and so must string together 3-4 hits just to score one run, and they cannot string together hits.

61.2% of Giants scoring innings are 1-run innings (142) (52.2% in 2016)

20.7% of Giants scoring innings are 2-run innings (48) (29.2% in 2016)

11.6% of Giants scoring innings are 3-run innings (27) (9.8% in 2016)

6.5% of Giants scoring innings are 4+-run innings (15) (8.8% in 2016)

It's due to the chronic low-IQ baseball from the team this season.

I don't care about IQ, I want runs and quality starts. Next year I mean.

Smarter baseball should lead to more runs scored and more quality starts. There have been way too many mental mistakes this season.

Well it sure isn't smart to keep hitting like shit with RISP and giving up HRs.

Now you are getting the idea!

In addition to bad base running, poor overall situational hitting, and throwing fat pitches right over the plate in 0-2 counts (especially with 2 outs and RISP).
