Game Thread: 8.13.16 Gausman @ Bumgarner

Bum clearly doesn't know how to bunt

 

[msgkings322]

Completely forgot he was on the Giants for a bit. Don't trigger my PTSD.

I actually noticed that tendency when he was on the White Sox

Belt is all kinds of fucked up at the plate

I think that maybe some of the umps have helped that continue that spiral. When you get called out on strikes multiple times for pitches way out of the zone its going to mess with your mind.

Plausible, but he's still gotta handle his business.

Nice play by Nunez there, Belt too with the stretch

Bum is DEALING

Totally understand. Not trying to make an excuse for the slump, just how some calls could make it easier for him to dig a deeper hole.

Did an AL team really just pinch hitter for a pitcher with a pitcher?

Yeah that was weird, but Showalter's a good manager so who knows what he was up to

This is an interesting one

Caught a break there. 1-pitch gift

 

[SFGRTB]

That was crushed. I need Jon Miller to tell me how hard that was off the bat.

 

[msgkings322]

Huge moment here, this guy strikes out a lot and hits tons of HRs
