Game Thread: 8.27.18 Cor-Stratt!

[moxie]

15 scoreless for the kid since Vogey worked with him.

@moxie must be proud...

Really surprised that Bochy sent him back out for the 8th. Doesn't seem to be Bochy's MO, regardless of how tired the bullpen is. Really glad it worked out so well. Stratton was nails tonight.

I think it was a gut check for the kid. Who really cares if the game was lost. Big confidence boost for the kid and Boch learned about him as well.

He may have just locked up a rotation spot for next year with this game. Being able to go 8 strong this late in the season is a nice ability to have.

Pretty good gig for Vogey. Does one thing to Stratton, gets all the credit. This honestly could get him a job

Didn't he also supposedly help Law?

Belt is due.

Boy is Watson looking shaky tonight.

 

[LHG]

Huge strikeout!

Boch working the inning to avoid the save situation.

Edit: never mind, Goldy was on first...

K well this is a gut check for Strickland then too. He's been pretty rough since coming back

 

[SFGRTB]

I guess this is a win-win for the Giants. They win, cool. They lose, the dodgers lose too

Every time I see Samardzija, I think renaissance faire.

I wonder if that injury messed up his feel for the ball.

Was it his throwing hand? I forget.

Had 'em allllllll the way!

Another #weaklink game but we won!

To be fair, Corbin is really good

Strat leads the team with 9 wins

tzill's favorite starter has 7 wins
