Game Thread: 9.30 Bum @ Posey

Well done! All I could find was his game worn jersey:

I hope the Brewers take the Dodger series seriously, and that the Padres continue their second half meltdown.

I've been thinking about this. They understand it's a potential NLCS preview. I'd think they won't roll over like some POS SoCal team I could name. Who probably find their spine beginning tonight...

Bullpen saves the day from Kazmir, manager pulls him exactly the right time...

105 fucking wins

I mean....Kap could have started JC instead and left Kazmir in Sacto...but I quibble.

 

[tzill]

Are you saying Wade is going to get banned from the game?

Gotta re-watch Eight Men Out.

Greatest baseball movie of all time. Fight me.

 

[tzill]

Probably about on par with us losing Belt.

Both are top-level players, but they come from the deep depth of the teams strength.

I dunno about that. Starting 1b doesn't equal late inning RP. But yeah, it's a loss for those guys.

 

[tzill]

Does anybody have the heart to tell poor TZ that the game wasn’t over?

Technically, the first inning failed to fulfill the "game over" requirement I laid out. But, don't let that get in the way of a good taunt.

 

[tzill]

I love how @tzill bet the over at like 80 wins LOL

I bet the over for $100 and $100 to win the WS.

 

[tzill]

The Vegas OU for the Giants was 74.

I got it at 75.5

Phuking legend. We need a statue outside the park for him.

We won't ya lunatic

Its too bad that Bumgarner has struggled so badly the past few years. I hope he can turn it around and have a couple more good years. That could make the difference for the D-Backs to lose 90 games instead of 105.

And the difference in him getting into the Hall.

Actually thought it prior to the game. I assumed JC wasn't ready to go. But again, Kap has access to tons of info we never see. Maybe Kaz looked really good all week.

I expect nothing les...er, more.

IIRC Kaz was pretty good his last game

And that may have been the biggest factor in Kaps decision.

Per Brisbee:

This is where the Giants shine. With a runner on third and less than two outs, they’re hitting .335/.383/.535, which ties them with the Cardinals for the highest OPS in that situation in the National League.

Indeed, correctly so

You do you, I’ll do me.

I think the Brewers have more of an incentive than most think. IMHO the Dodgers have the best pitching of all the NL teams. The Brewers have an opportunity to force them into a WC game. That sets up a possibility of the best NL pitching team to be eliminated in 1 game. I think the Brewers would much rather face us than them when all is said and done. I just feel they match up better to us than LA.
