Game Thread: 9/1 StL @ SF

[1phlapdown]

4-5-6 are 6-6. We could have used this a lot more this yr.

 

[calsnowskier]

Philly won, but the Sox lost. The Sox are making an impressive push...

 

[LHG]

Why did Parker get pulled? Was it so these guys who just got called up could get in the game?

 

[Stokes1931]

Giants 6th, bases loaded one out, GIDP, of course

Melancon with another BS. He had help, as Gorkys played that single into a triple, allowing the run to score.

 

[Stokes1931]

Another stellar play by GorKys on that triple.

 

[Stokes1931]

Love how this team turns 5-2 leads into 8-5 deficits.

 

[Stokes1931]

And Dyson has reverted tonight to his Ranger form. Ugh.

 

[calsnowskier]

This team is simply unwatchable.

 

[Stokes1931]

9-66 with RISP in their last 9 games. (.136)

In those 9 games, they have scored all of 16 runs (5 fewer than the Cards scored tonight), and been shut out twice. (1.78)

They have given up 35 runs in those 9 games (3.89)

Apparently Melancon will be shut down soon and he will go under the knife...

 

[LHG]

And Dyson has reverted tonight to his Ranger form. Ugh.

Considering the ugliness of his line, disconcerting.

Injured side.

 

[SFGRTB]

Another stellar play by GorKys on that triple.

He's so terrible.

 

[SFGRTB]

This was a vintage Cueto game until the 6th, then it became a vintage bullpen game.

 

[SFGRTB]

And Dyson has reverted tonight to his Ranger form. Ugh.

One game, it happens. Not going to panic with him just yet.

 

[SFGRTB]

Apparently Melancon will be shut down soon and he will go under the knife...

Why he was still out there to begin with still baffles me.

"A good end of the season carries over to next season" well if you pitching injured you probably won't have very good results at the end of your season.
