Didn't see the anthem, but I heard it on the radio.

One of the better renditions I have heard in a while. BIG voice.

 

[calsnowskier]

Not surprisingly, this game looks over early...

 

[calsnowskier]

I am reminded...

How in the hell did they not trade Hundley? It makes no sense to not trade him.

 

[calsnowskier]

So was that play ruled an infield line-out rule?

 

[1phlapdown]

Tie game.

Edit. And the lead!

 

[1phlapdown]

Haha, what are the odds Noggin takes out Cain after 5 nice innings?????


He's learning!

Pretty good?

Evidently not learning, putting Osich in there. He's Sacramento bound. What a disaster he has been the last week or two. 17 pitches and all of 7 strikes?!?

F'ing sax full


edit: oh boy, three inherited runners. heaven help us...


edit OMG

 

[Stokes1931]

Let's open the inning with a walk to a .232 hitter, give up a double to a .229 hitter, then finish our "work" night with a walk to another .232 hitter. Buh-bye. Sheesh.

 

[Stokes1931]

Bases loaded, one out. Giants would FPGIDP here. The A's?

 

[Stokes1931]

Great. In comes Kontos who is allowing 60% of his inherited runners to score. Perfect situation for him.

 

[Stokes1931]

And of course, Kontos allows his three inherited runners to score, and adds one more of his own as he gives up a salami to a guy who has 3 homers on the season.

The baseball gods are laughing hard at this team.

Hey, they're not the only ones!!!


edit: I tried bantering on the Phillies board about our mutual ineptitude but they were having none of it

 

[Stokes1931]

Kontos is a perfect 5-5 in allowing inherited runners to score after the ASB.

 

[Stokes1931]

Who the hell teaches baserunning to these guys? After hitting a double, Moncrief makes the first out at second on a groundout?!? And, of course, this follows a hit which more than likely would have scored him. Unbelievable.

 

[calsnowskier]

Bochy just doesn't have the tools to make anything nice this year. Basically, the only guys I want back from this bully are Melancon, Smith, Dyson and Crick. Everyone else can gtfo.

 

[Stokes1931]

I love the singles with runners on base, but I wonder what it would be like for the Giants to have an XBH with runners on.
