Looks like Shark has retaken the leadoff spot. It doesn't really matter.

Game is a pick 'em.

O/U is 7.5.

Battle of Aces. I don't like either line. If I HAD to bet one, I think I may do the under.

 

[calsnowskier]

Giants see 11 pitches in the first inning.

The Rox see 9 pitches in the first AB...

 

[calsnowskier]

Wait a sec...

Culby is starting n LF for the pebbles?

 

[Stokes1931]

Giants see 11 pitches in the first inning.

The Rox see 9 pitches in the first AB...

Wake me up when a Giant hitter takes 9 pitches leading off a game.

Blanco won't see that many pitches in a series.

 

[Stokes1931]

Giants now have 30 errors in their 39th game post-ASB (0.77/game)

Before the ASB, they had 66 errors in 94 games. (0.70/game)

2013 is on pace for 119 errors

In 2012, they had 114 errors (0.70/game)

In 2011, they had 104 errors.

In 2010, they had 73 errors.

In 2009, they had 88 errors.

 

[Stokes1931]

Since the 10-20 game, the Giants are 19-89 with RISP (.213)

 

[Stokes1931]

And some team, ahem, doesn't seem to have a hit tonight. But we did score a run on a GIDP by Herk.

 

[Stokes1931]

Blanco now 8-52 batting leadoff in the first inning. (.154)

 

[Stokes1931]

The last team to get no-hit twice in a season?

 

[Stokes1931]

The last team to get no-hit twice in a season?

The 2010 Tampa Bay Rays

May 9 against Oakland (Dallas Braden), and then June 25 against Arizona (Edwin Jackson).

And as a bonus, Matt Garza threw a no-hitter for the Rays that same year on July 26 against Detroit.

In 1983, the White Sox were no-hit on almost the last game of the season (Sept 29). and then in the first weeks of the 1984 season, were no-hit again!

Before that, it was the California Angels no-hit twice in the 1977 season by Dennis Eckersley and Bert Blyleven (Captain Hook).

 

[Stokes1931]

Bum needs a PBF here.

And he needs some Giants hitters to remember to use their bats next inning.

 

[Stokes1931]

31 Errors in 39 games now.

Giants are 3-17 this season when committing two errors. Looks very much like soon to be 3-18.

What a depressing team. Bum deserved better than this putrid hitting and awful defense.

 

[Stokes1931]

What a freaking nightmare inning.

Game over.

Giants can't score 5, even at Coors. Not when they can't even muster a stupid hit.

 

[Stokes1931]

Stupid, stupid, stupid hitting.

Crawford breaks up the no-no, and the Kiesch goes all FPOM.

The lack of plate discipline and situational hitting is very upsetting.

 

[Stokes1931]

MVP not coming through in the clutch.

 

[Stokes1931]

I went back to look at all Bum's games this season.

He has given up (through tonight's game) 64 runs.

He left the games with 12 runners on base.

9 of those were allowed to score!

If the relievers had done their job, Bum would have given up 52 instead of 64 runs, and his ERA would be about 2.29

 

[Stokes1931]

Ugh.

 

[calsnowskier]

Ouch...

From Pavlovic...

Bums starts since the ASB...

7 innings, 1 earned run — loss
8 innings, 0 earned runs — no decision
7 innings, 1 earned run — win
7 innings, 3 earned runs — loss
4 innings, 1 earned run — no decision
5 innings, 4 earned runs — no decision
8 innings, 3 earned runs — loss
5 1/3 innings, 3 earned runs — no decision

I turned this one off after what should have been a strike out-throw out for Bum and Posey.
