After 4 Sammy is looking good, but not very efficient at 65p.

65 after 4 is not that bad. You hope for 60 after 4.

I am a little higher, or in this case lower at something in the 40's, so that an 8-9inn game is doable. Not that we see that often with this team.

 

[calsnowskier]

Wait...

I thought that was against the rules...

The 15-pitch per inning expectation comes from the days when pitchers actually threw complete games (and would go 130 or so pitches).

If a pitcher averages 8-9 pitches an inning... well, I don’t know. That just doesn’t happen.

Holy shit! Buster busts one!


edit: and Panda tooooooooo

 

[Stokes1931]

Posey with not one but TWO RBI's. In the same game! In the same inning!! Maybe he will top 40 RBI for the year!

But wait! There's more!

A home run for Posey!

 

[Stokes1931]

Panda goes yard!

Pillar goes yard!

5-0

The Killer P's (Posey, Panda, Pillar)

"Say again?"

Well, if one of the 5 greatest pitchers ever could do, it should be expected from every schlub every time.

Amirite?

 

[Mays-Fan]

HOME RUN DERBY !!!

"Say again?"

Maddux retired after the 2008 season. Things may have changed a little since then. Even in his era, he was pretty unique.

HOME RUN DERBY !!!

Welcome to Not San Francisco!

We hit 2 yesterday too...

That would be a small sample size.

Wait, what?

 

[Stokes1931]

Posey's HR wouldn't have reached the warning track at Oracle. Panda's and Pillar's were legit.

 

[Mays-Fan]

One more inning, Scrabs.

Then Melancon, Dyson, and Smith.

Say what?
