fuck it, leave him out there. Game's over.

Peavy gets a little breather after the replay of that play. That was a fantastic play, had to come over from the 5.5 hole and made the Jeter jump throw.

Then Peavy makes a great old-man play.

 

[SFGRTB]

Can we lay off the curveball in the dirt? Thanks.

 

[SFGRTB]

We could really use Marlon Byrd here...

 

[SFGRTB]

Well that was lucky.

Can't say I'm mad to see Morton taken out, but this Pirates bullpen is pretty good. Watson has been excellent.

 

[calsnowskier]

Bad AB by EA, but he got bailed out.

 

[calsnowskier]

We HAVE to come up with AT LEAST one here...

 

[calsnowskier]

Nope

 

[Stokes1931]

0-6



5 for last 39

 

[SFGRTB]

Well, this was going to be a tough roadie. The offense has just disappeared. Need to take tomorrow's game with Bum.

 

[calsnowskier]

btw, right now Peaved is a 3 PQS

He ended with a 4.

Not his greatest start, for sure, but he did not lose this game (assuming the Giants go on to lose). The offense lost this game.

 

[LHG]

Had hoped this team would start the series on a good note. Not looking so through 7.

 

[calsnowskier]

Not to ruin anyone's night, but...

With Cuzzi at 1st today, that means he will be behind the plate tomorrow for Bums start...

 

[Stokes1931]

Giants just a different offensive team without Pence.

With Pence: 5.22 runs per game

W/O Pence: 3.70 runs per game (and dropping)

Cuzzi said that he had not yet seen the replay. "I'll look at it, but I figured I'd eat first,” he said, laughing. “He made a decent attempt to put the tag on him. That’s what it looked to me, and that’s why I called him out.”

He did, so I guess you have to give it to him...not a shitshow.
