No SDI for Suarez.

Just an idea, pitch around Story the rest of the night.

A. What is the point in winning games (except that season ending series)?
B. How does playing the kids, with this team, mean less of a chance to win (as Baggarly points out)?

 

[LHG]

I do find it amazing that a guy who struggles to hit in AA and AAA is absolutely on fire in the big leagues while the dude who mashed in AAA can barely do squat (and yes, SSS, etc.).

 

[SFGRTB]

The high hard one..... pretty obvious that's the book on him. I think maybe 5 pitches he's seen have been below the belt

 

[Stokes1931]

mlb.com's two videos of the game are the story of the season.

1) Panik scores on a double play

2) Story's mammoth 459-foot homer

We need some more of the latter.

Shaw and Bonds should hangout this offseason. A lot

 

[SFGRTB]

Why TF would you throw a strike to Story with no one on and two outs?

Mac should hook him up with his tutor

It's more of a pitch recognition thing than a swing thing. Having a plan at the plate and all

I think what's most shocking to me is that Story, who has 3 homers, is batting behind Arenado and the score is 4-3

Ray Black

 

[SFGRTB]

Black vs. Story sitting on 3 homers was quite compelling if I may say so

Took the Giants 9 hits to get three runs. Only took the Rox three hits to get three runs.

 

[Stokes1931]

Jesus christ..... how is Blackmon standing?

Just watched the video. If that foul is six inches lower, he's a dead man.

Terrifying

 

[Stokes1931]

0-September still lives!

 

[SFGRTB]

Did I hear Kuip right? This was only the second time they've been swept in a 3-game series
