Game Thread: 8.25 scum @ El Dia de Cueto

[calsnowskier]

Bart is reminding everyone that he is a rookie tonight...

 

[calsnowskier]

Flores? That was Belt's second...

Arguably his best stat line game as a Giant

And his 11th consecutive PA reaching base safely. 8 was his previous best.

 

[LHG]

I know it is in fun. Doesn’t mean I can’t turn it to a legit discussion point, though...

And tz said that Arias was better than HanRam around the time he was traded to the Dogs (not his height, but far from the shadow he became later in his career).

No, you are not allowed to do that. I forbid it.

 

[LHG]

Defense looking rather pathetic this inning.

 

[LHG]

Alexander enters with the highest ERA of the 6 Dodger relievers tonight - 2.00.

 

[LHG]

Dubon!

 

[calsnowskier]

Would not be a bad spot for Dubon to attempt a steal. Rather him on the base paths in the 11th than Yaz...

 

[calsnowskier]

Would have rathered Dubon on 2nd with Yaz at the plate than Yaz on 2nd and Flower at the plate...

 

[LHG]

Have I mentioned how much I hate this runner on 2nd in extras thing? Yeah, I hate it.

I don’t like it, but it isn’t as bad a few other rules...

I know, FZ hated that rule requiring pitchers having to go on the IL a minimum of 15 days too . . . oh wait, you mean THAT rule.

I am following the game on gamecast. How did that "infield single to catcher" look?

 

[LHG]

Finally - a Dodger reliever with an ERA over 2! That must mean this game is over.

 

[LHG]

Yeah Longoria (another Giant with a good night at the plate)! Can Belt get on base again?

 

[LHG]

Solano with the walk off! Take that Dodgers!

 

[LHG]

How funny that Selman threw the fewest pitches of 10 Giant pitchers and he gets the win.

 

[calsnowskier]

7 in a row...

Just like last year, the team gets hot at the absolute WORST time. They are making it very hard to sell.

 

[calsnowskier]

If there was a crowd, that would be a very memorable HR that would put Solano on the board as a Giant. Unfortunately, I doubt that HR will be remembers like Panik or Johnson...

I love winning and I especially love it whenever they beat the Dodgers, but you are right. This is an absolute waste of a winning streak.

Just means they have to ride this through September

I thought so but then he replied differently

We're not dealing anyone.
