My Dad passed away recently and I wanted him to see the Giants win it all again. He hung in there strong and hopefully the Giants can come back and take it all . I know he is still watching.

Need a win today.

Go Giants !!

So sorry to hear of your loss, that's tough.

He did get to see 2 championships, something my Cubs-fan aunt and grandfather never saw

Me dad never saw a single SF Giants championship.

Hey! Crawford with a hit out of the 2-hole and Blanco with RBI single at bottom of the lineup. Must be a coincidence

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

I think this is us. He is a FA after this season, plays multiple positions and has speed

Since 2 of the positions are CF and 2B we need him.

 

[msgkings322]

It's sad how shell shocked we are. We come out swinging and put up a 3 spot and no one cares here...not even Stokesy. We scored first!

 

[msgkings322]

Really Timmy? LEadoff walk to the pitcher?

 

[msgkings322]

Never mind. Fuck these guys right now.

I'll give a shit again when they win a fucking game.

pretty much.

I promised that I would not pay attention to the doggies until the Giants won two straight. I ignored the doggies for about 2 weeks. Now I wish I never looked again.

LOL

Anyone else getting Depends ads on the page?

(Seriously, I am getting Depends ads on this page)

Sorry to hear of your loss. Pretty cool your Dad got to see the Giants win it all. I recently lost my Dad also but he could not have cared less about baseball no matter how hard I tried. It isn't easy trying to get people to be interested in the Pirates. lol


On a side note, the good part about the Giants is that, IMO they are similar to the Cardinals as in it almost doesn't matter how they finish in the regular season as long as they make the playoffs because both teams just know how to step it up when needed most. Those types of teams are easy for me to appreciate. I will be rooting for SF if they get to the WS for sure.

Thanks for the props. Pretty much any team can win once they get there if they get hot. Some have a better chance than others like the Dodgers with their ridiculous starting pitching.

Cards won it all with like an 84-78 record in 2006 right? That's us!! Or maybe Pittsburgh...

 

[msgkings322]

I know it's expected but couldn't Timmy have just not swung at all and struck out or walked so Pence comes up with the bases loaded?

Timmeh had the two-hit game when he threw the no-no. He is one of our best hitters now, dontcha know?

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Go Giants. I really want you guys to win today, in hopes they don't arrive in NY overly ticked off, on a losing streak, and looking to take their frustrations out on my team.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Dammit!!!
That lead didn't last long at all....
