Game Thread: 9/20 Black @ Wacha (5:10 p.m.)

Royals actually playing for something. Not so our Giants.

 

[tzill]

Nice cheap run T1...let's see if Black understands the concept of SDI.

 

[tzill]

shaky B1 but he got the zero. 19 pitches.

 

[tzill]

8 pitch T2....not good.

 

[tzill]

B2 also verrrrry shaky, but another zero. 39 pitches through 2

 

[tzill]

T3 Canha singles, Forto GIDP...not good.

 

[tzill]

B3 10 pitch inning...that's good
Another rocket right at an OF....less good.

Still 1-0 good guys.

 

[tzill]

T4 Ramos leadoff triple...good.

3 shitshow ABs later....Ramos stranded.

This phuking team is AWFUL.

 

[tzill]

B4 six pitch inning. Too bad Black is getting phuked by the "hitters"

Still 1-0 good guys.

 

[tzill]

Ramos with a single, triple and a double. Cycle watch.

2-0 good guys. Black 5.2 strong.

Doval went from all star closer to battling to break camp on the 26 in just a season and a half.

this dude broken.

 

[calsnowskier]

I always liked this Pham guy…

this dude broken.

The talent is there. You can see it.

 

[maxrandomness]

Nice to see him tough it out after the shortstop miscue there

 

[msgkings322]

The talent is there. You can see it.

He may not be closer material is all. Thought he was and for one year he was but he may just be a setup guy which is fine. He can be a very solid 7-8th inning weapon with that stuff

And still FYWW!

 

[sf1giantfan]

He is mentally broken

 

[tzill]

craptastic hitting and Camilo was a shitshow.

Still, a win is a win.

 

[Stokes1931]

It could always be worse...in a do or die game against the Twins, the Red Sox are in the 12th inning and are only 1-19 with RISP. They trail the Twins 4-2. That is Giants-level poor hitting.
