Game Thread: 9/20/2016 9th inning blunders @ Starting rotation wonders

[LHG]

Yeah, I'm making another game thread. Here's to a better night tonight.

Here's the lineup facing Mr. Blister:

Nunez - 3rd
Hernandez - cf
Posey - c
Pence - rf
Williamson - lf
Crawford - ss
Belt - 1st
Adrianza - 2nd
Cueto - sp

A mini lineup shakeup going on here. Pagan sits and both Span and Panik sit again! I begun to wonder if Adrianza was still with the team. No one has more than 4 at-bats against Hill. Turner and Utley both hitting .333 (in 18 and 24 at-bats respectively) against Cueto with a home run each. No one in the Dodgers' lineup hitting better than .250 against him.

Lots of "new" faces. I approve. Even if they stink, they cannot do any worse than the .100 hiiters that keep getting thrown out there. Play the kids!

Mets losing in the 9th...

 

[LHG]

Did we just lose Crawford for the season on that ill advised advance to 3rd base?

 

[1phlapdown]

Time for another PBF...

edit -- and mets go down

Fingers don't bend that way. If I were a betting man, I would lay a decent sized wager that he were done for the year.

If this team had a pulse, they would find a way for him to come back. But as it is, shut him down and let KT get more PT.

 

[1phlapdown]

Uh oh Gonzo up...


edit-- JC gives up the hits, but won't give in.

 

[1phlapdown]

C'mon MAC


edit-- belt

 

[LHG]

Nunez!

Giants shortstop Brandon Crawford injures hand

"Crawford is the reigning Gold Glove and Silver Slugger award winner among NL shortstops and was having another stellar season with the glove. He also led the Giants with 80 RBIs, and although he has slowed down his production along with everyone else in the second half, the club is 35-13 when he drives in a run."

Some insurance runs would be real nice...



edit-- crap , rox rolled over

He still has to be the odds on favorite for the GG...

Bum goes 7 scoreless yesterday and Cueto has gone 6.1 scoreless so far tonight...

And the Giants will start the Series 0-2

 

[calsnowskier]

And tonight, Craw's injury will be the reason we lose...

 

[calsnowskier]

Toles is going yard here...

 

[calsnowskier]

Even worse...

 

[calsnowskier]

So...

How about those Niners?

Bum goes 7 scoreless yesterday and Cueto has gone 6.1 scoreless so far tonight...

5.1 -- not a QS
