9/2 GDT Puds @ FinalZeet

Wish for next year: for a healthy leadoff hitter who gets on base, and for Crawford to learn how to hit with RISP. He is hitting about .180 in those situations this season.

I doubt Zito gets another start for the Giants ever. He may get an inning or two mopup at home so the fans can thank him for last year's playoffs, but he's done as a Giant.

Is that something you really think one can learn? Hopefully is comes with time but I hope it doesn't take as long as it took Barry to learn how to hit in the playoffs. Maybe a new hitting coach could help the kid out.

How 'bout a few more homers, we're frikkin' dead last.

Giants now 17-28 in the opening game of a series.

Giants now 22-51 (.301) in the games when not scoring 1st.

Run differential post-ASB is -1.023 (3.233 scored vs. 4.256 allowed)

Why Zeets and Blanco?!?!?

Play the kids!

Giants now tied with the Padres for the #7 draft spot.
