Great job, apologies for giving up on this game

Never apologize for giving up on a moundshattery.

Moundshatteries do not deserve our support.

If any game was ever a FYWW game...great win

Another one in the books boys. Torture, but they come up big in the end.

Seven hitless innings from FYWW...that's amazing.

Easy win.

I believe the term is "had 'em all the way"

I’ve heard it both ways.

That's the first time since 1993 that they've trailed by four runs in the ninth and come back to win the game.

LaMonte Wade, Jr. wasn't alive the last time the Giants won after trailing by four runs in the ninth inning.

First time in the SF era that they have done it while going into the 9th with a goose egg.

Ouch…


The 34-win Diamondbacks are 35.5 games back of the Giants.

Didn't look like he was alive until his last AB ... j/k LMWJr

While Wood definitely didn’t pitch a great game, or a really good one for that matter, he did get himself out of jams and keep the game within their sites. The third could have been a total disaster but he got out of it only giving up the 2 runs. So I really don’t think it was mound shittery, it could have been a lot worse and then the ninth probably doesn’t happen.

It was mound shattery.

4 IP 80 pitches 7 H 3 BB 4 ER.

The only good thing I can say is he didn't give up a HR.

that's an ERA of 9.00
A WHIP of 2.50

How is that anything but a fecal fiesta?

Try to find some good in it. After he gave up the walk the D’Backs could have tacked on more. He got the next 3 on 2 K’s and a groundout.

If you can find good in it, you're a much more optimistic fan than I.

The SP since the ASB: 4.62 ERA, fewer than five innings per start and threw a quality start in just 22.2 percent of games.

That's a problem.

Its a problem right now. The team is 12-8 since the break. Good teams find ways to win. Do they have enough to take it all? Who knows. That’s why they play the games.
