2-8

2-8 = .250 BA

Probably not that far from league average. The Giants are one of if the the best RISP teams in the bigs. I know it seems like they suck, but they really don't...

I know Vogey is only "on pace" to go about 5.1, but he has been nails since the first.

What will define a "good outing" for Vogey tonight? A QS?

Same as every night, about a QS. For all those who bemoan that stat, 6 and 3 is a good start.

Hey, his WHIP is down to 2.000. Winning!

1.333 WHIP now ('cause we all LOVE random running statistics during a game thread).

Watching him "run" that one out, I feel extra special with the knowledge that I was at a game where Posey hit a triple.



I have also been to a game where Oxy went deep...

 

[calsnowskier]

What was that???

 

[filosofy29]

What was that convo regarding, I wonder? Looked very civil, so there is no story there, but just curious about what was discussed...

What happened? Just following along on Gamecast.

Are we in the playoffs already?

Strasberg and Diaz had an extended face to face conversation after the inning. The CSN broadcast stayed on it til its conclusion, but our guys never mentioned anything about it.

Someone must have forgotten to tell R. Kelly that Posey is a catcher.

Out by 6 steps.

Sure, but were you at the game where Oxy RAN deep? IMO that effectively started his decline. Great play though, walkoff inside the park HR.

he messed up again?

 

[LHG]

Strasburg on pace to not be as good as he used to be.

Out by 6 steps.

The 3B umpire fucked 2013 for us that game. 2 HORRIBLE calls that required Oxy to even get that hit.

 

[calsnowskier]

Werth is really struggling this year. Wow.

Any of you other SoCal gents have any creative ways of watching Giants games?
