I don't care who wins. I just hope Hudson and Zito both look good. This is a celebration of Bay Area baseball more than anything else. Let's have fun!

Zito vs. Hudson. Final starts for each. Everyone knows the story.

 

[SFGRTB]

You can delete the other thread, or this thread.

I hope both guys do well, but I'll expect this to be a high scoring game, both pitchers are gone by the 5th.

 

[calsnowskier]

I am surprised CSN isn't showing Zito and Huddy take the field. Also, they didn't show the first pitch. Was it Mulder?

 

[calsnowskier]

Classy of the As to play Sweet Home Alabama as Huddy warms up. That's cool.

CSN is slumping with the team.

 

[SFGRTB]

Jarrett muthafuckin Parker!

It's off old Barry Zito, but still. 4 Homers in 23 ABs.

 

[calsnowskier]

WTF??

An opportunity-taco?

Who the fuck is this kid?

Only part that matters.

He will slump, of course, but he might be costing Byrd a job right now.

 

[calsnowskier]

Zito with no walks into the second. Using the logic we all learned over the last 10 years, that means he is having a good day.

 

[calsnowskier]

Did the Giants rope-a-dope the As into starting Zito?

 

[SFGRTB]

I want to see him play everyday for the rest of the year. I want to see if his defensive abilities are being over-exaggerated, if he's at least passable.

Plus, every time he hits a homer, we can say "JARRETT Parks one over the fence"

 

[SFGRTB]

Does Hudson have a triple play induced? He's just setting one up here.

 

[calsnowskier]

Definitely for the OF next year are Pence, Pagan and Blanco. Aoki and Byrd have options. Aoki's option is good, Byrd's is not.

I think that Parker might be pushing the issue on making a trade clearing up an OF spot. We have MLB depth there, let's leverage that.

Giants haven't had one since '08, I think...

 

[calsnowskier]

Duffy!!

You almost had it!

Yeah Yabu did it at some point.

I honestly think Duffy had a chance if he fielded that cleanly!!

In all honesty, probably not. The ball was hit too soft and Lawrie is too fast.

But a likely PBF, and the Huddy would still be tossing a shutout.

 

[SFGRTB]

IDK, maybe neither of these guys make it out of the 3rd.

 

[calsnowskier]

Huddy looking horrible. Although, Duffy has not helped him at all with the glove.
