I'm sorry, with Hanson's speed, he should not be the #8 hitter. Completely wasted in that slot. And Longo is no #3.

0-September continues.

Hanson has the highest slugging percentage on the team (outside of Garcia and Jones' SSS). Maybe he should hit 4th and move Belt to 3rd?
And Panik leading off makes absolutely no sense. His speed and his on base (.309) fits great for the 7th or 8th spot.
I would think this lineup would make more sense:
Slater - rf
Hanson - ss
Belt - 1st
Longoria - 3rd
Hernandez - cf
Hundley - c
Shaw - lf
Panik - 2nd
Holland - sp

Man, down 2-0 in the 1st inning.

Must be nice to have hitters who get on base and have some power.

 

[Stokes1931]

Shaw with a walk?!? Was it intentional?

Heard Kuip say that the Brewers have like a +80 homerun advantage of just the players in the game.

I like Slater up top as well, even on a fully-healthy team

No it wasn't.

No, wrong again. The hitting is fine. The pitching is this team's weak link I've been told.

I found this quote from Bochy in an article from the Chronicle:

"If you're not hitting home runs you better steal bases," Bochy said.

Seriously, he's been quoted as having said that. Here's the article link - Giants will monitor innings for rookies Rodriguez, Suarez

Jesus.... speaking of ad revenue what's up with that mid-inning commercial break?

 

[SFGRTB]

Oh yeah, the game.

ON-ALL GOOD

 

[calsnowskier]

Cuzzi is at 1st tonight?

Shit. That means he is behind the plate tomorrow.

Hanson 2-2 in the #8 spot

and Slater 0-6 in 1 and 2

 

[Stokes1931]

TShaw walking to load the bases was not the worst thing that could have happened there.....

 

[SFGRTB]

Daymn, Dutch

 

[Stokes1931]

Hader is having a great year. 70 innings and only 29 hits. 0.78 WHIP. Wow!

17th round pick by the Orioles. Nice scouting.

 

[Stokes1931]

Strick with the leadoff walk.

You know how much I HATE leadoff walks.

edit: Now TWO leadoff walks!

Why is Strick pitching in a close game? Oh yes, 0-September. Got it!

And now 1-0 to Cain

And now 2-0 to Cain

Good plan. Fooled Cain into thinking "walk" and flied out to CF instead. Genius!

Welp, Watson has been good for so much of the season, but he has sucked lately.
