Man, how did we get back to .500 so quickly....and the D-Backs are closing in

 

[SFGRTB]

Jeez, what is it with out pitchers giving up untimely homers this roadie?!?

Get 'em all out of the way this trip.

 

[Stokes1931]

Another called strike clearly outside the zone.

Would love to see the PitchFX of this game. Terrible home plate ump. Awful.

At least the Gs won't face Matz this week who shut down the doggies for six w/8ks. New young pitcher and all...

 

[SFGRTB]

Lol, from 2009!

 

[Stokes1931]

Man, we are getting pwned this road trip.

 

[Stokes1931]

Lol, from 2009!

Amen!

Wow the Giants are really getting hosed again tonight. It feels like one of those DC politicians just bought one of those $1,000 hammers and is beating us over the head with it. A real hose job.

Law is a bitchy little bitch, though. My sense of that post is that he had a little run-in with Cuzzi himself that led to that tweet.

That said, I do somewhat agree with his conclusion. Although, off the top of my head, I can think of two who are at least also in the discussion.

Angel Martinez
Joe West

Well, at least Zimmerman is done.

Angel *Hernendez

and don't forget Balking Bob Davidson: Iannetta scores on balk | MLB.com

edit: disregard the link, that was NOT Bob Davidson. It was Gary Darling. Still a bad ump.

 

[SFGRTB]

Michael Taylor makes all the plays.

Frankly, that's been the road trip. The Giants haven't caught one break. The defense has made every play, the batter has come through every time. Frustratingly baseball.

 

[Band of Brothers]

007 coming in to pitch the bottom of the 8th for the Giants.

 

[Sandisfan]

Ugh (feeling like they will never win again) In my fatalistic mood (sarcasm/fatalism mode) can we get the first pick in the draft next June?

BROWSER FROZE tried to post this 20 minutes ago Ugh bad emergency laptop replacement for a broken OK one.

 

[msgkings322]

At least we get to read tzill's post after the game about what an abortion/shitshow this game and roadtrip were, and that he called it.

 

[SFGRTB]

At what point does or has Pagan become a liability? I appreciate the effort, but he is not right. Blanco is better defensively and is swinging a better bat right now.

 

[Band of Brothers]

Lopez out after double...Ball Buster coming in

Looks like Dr. No got him.

Agree, Pagan needs rest badly but with all the injuries he keeps playing. Problem is Blanco can't lead off, who would then?

 

[Band of Brothers]

Giants playing hard but look like a team ready to go home. No legs and the heat is thick tonight.
