I am just now finishing the top of the 1st…

1 out juice, and all they can come away with is 1 run. And that 1 run was gifted to them.

There is a major malfunction with this team. I can’t explain it.

I love players who appear to be enjoying themselves on the field. Watching James Wood not want to leave the field made me an instant fan of his.

I didn't know Angel Hernandez had come back from retirement!

Looks like he apologized to Canha after the delay.

It really is uncanny. And it isn’t like it is an anomaly for THIS year. This is an organizational thing that has been there for a long while.

Either that or they dug up Eric Gregg’s rotting corpse.

1-11 in the 9th with the bases loaded....

2-12!!!!

Canha delivers a bases clearing double.

Great signing!

Was Ramos backing up on that great Conforto catch?

 

[calsnowskier]

Where is Scutaro when you need him?

Did he find Melvin and apologize to him as well?

Multiple batting coaches, multiple managers, multiple “hitters”. Why is this a thing? Has anyone looked to see if it is possible to see how the Giants rank on the last decade among MLB in this category?

I have wanted team by team numbers for this for a while. Are we just micro-raging, or is it a real thing? How do the Giants rank vs other teams?

Canhahahaha! Genius pick-up (at least for today)

Just need weather and Doval to hold long enough to book the game

A former denizen of the board nailed it: small sphincters. Although to be fair, he accused a former pitcher of having this condition when the team scored few runs for him, something completely out of the pitcher's control. Still, said denizen may have been on to something...

nothing like blowing a 3 run lead

Unbelievable, Doval. Just unbelievable. 3 runs on 2 walks and a dinger
