Someone, somewhere, sometime has got to start hitting, right? Bum with a QS, and another homer, the kind Earl Weaver loved.

 

[Band of Brothers]

Tonight Bumgarner gets the nod to face a hot hitting Rockies team that blasted 5 HR's last night. Hopefully the men in black can stand tall and bring home a victory. This calls for the simple man with a big left arm. The humidor must be busted because baseballs are flying out of Coors field. Giants turn to go yard tonight.

Picks to click...Triple P's at the top of the order...Pagan,Pence, and Posey

Go Giants !!

Five Rox with ownage on Bum: CarGo, Pacheco, Tulo, Rosario, Rutlege.

Herk is 3/4 vs. Morales, but otherwise no significant ABs by the Giants.

Something's gotta give. 6-3 good guys.

Pence homers.

 

[Band of Brothers]

Bum only 19 pitches through 2 innings

 

[tzill]

Wow...and now Oxy starting to slump. I thought it couldn't get worse.

I was wrong.

 

[tzill]

Pagan looks hurt to me. Right knee.

 

[Band of Brothers]

I think the Giants might be having trouble the last few days picking up the ball from the pitcher because of the center field backdrop.

 

[Band of Brothers]

Pagan looks to be limping.

 

[Band of Brothers]

Pagan should have that checked out. Giants can not afford to lose him for any period of time.

 

[Band of Brothers]

Bum dealing through 3 inn.

 

[Stokes1931]

Bum dealing through 3 inn.

Unfortunately, the way we are hitting, "Bum dealing" for us = "a pitcher showing up" for them.

 

[tzill]

Ice Beast, Frozen Panda, and Chilly BB9 coming up...

 

[Band of Brothers]

Panda with a solid double.

 

[Stokes1931]

Man, 4 of the 8 Giant hitters are hitting less than .200

Hope Kobe comes through with a RISP

 

[Band of Brothers]

Tulo is amazing. Wow ...cost us a run.

 

[1phlapdown]

Not to be

 

[Stokes1931]

^~%~@$^~%!

Giants now 13 for their last 95 with RISP, (.137)

Two weeks ago, they were hitting .393 with RISP

Now they are hitting .237 for the season with RISP

Bum needs to keep dealing, he's our only hope on the mound, or at the plate.

Tulo making it hard to go 5.5 hole tonight.

 

[Stokes1931]

Tulo doing it all tonight. Carp!

Rox = 6 homers in the series

Giants = 4 balls to the OF in the series (j/k)

 

[tzill]

Wow. Tulo just kicking our asses..

 

[tzill]

Feels like we're down 4-0
