Hey Giants, you were playing really well when I was on vacation. I came home and you've been playing terrible losing baseball.

Therefore, I am announcing without further delay, I am going on vacation again.

Just thought you should know.

Great, first we had to use our dues to pay for tzill's season tickets and now we have to use them to pay for Stokes's vacations. No wonder Filo keeps coming back....

If they can score 7 runs in a game started by deGrom (and win), this awful streak will finally be over.

This is already a Colin jinx before the game even starts....have you seen our pen lately? :-)

I guess the "and win" makes it safe though

True, scoring 7 runs is no safe bet to win a game this season, with the possible exception of a Bumgarner start.

Giants have lost 6 games this season when leading by 4+ runs, the most in MLB, and more than they lost in 2014 and 2015 combined.

That's really disheartening.

Some good news (so far) - the Phillies have managed a rally and taken a 5 to 4 lead over the Dodgers in the 7th inning.

Thanks for paying for my vacation! Maybe I will get as far as Manteca with all your dues.
Hey, I got one bleacher seat for a Tues night vs. the Padres out of the deal....
