Affeldt out 4-6 weeks but closer to six. Surkamp likely starting Tuesday

Well the Nats sure ain't helpin' us out any, already down 9-1 in the 6th to the dogs. Damn.

 

[Stokes1931]

And the Snakes score first. Not a good sign.

Giants are 15-36 when the other team scores first. But hey, it is a new season post -ASB. We can do this.

 

[Stokes1931]

Some bad AB's by the Giants. Lots of popups on the infield.

 

[1phlapdown]

65 pitches thru 4 for Bum. He needs a bit more efficiency and some friggin hits by the Gs

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

Bumgarner now 5 IP and 70 pitches. Big, quick inning

I thought Kershaw pitched for the Dogs in Washington today. Didn't know he was pitching for the Snakes as well.

 

[Stokes1931]

Post ASB, Giants are 3-18 with RISP.

I thought we couldn't get worse at the plate. Evidently, we can.

Still trailing only 1-0. Come on, Bum, keep us close.

 

[Stokes1931]

Carp! Don't want to see Goldschmidt up with a man on.

 

[1phlapdown]

Pick off!

 

[Stokes1931]

Pick off!

Great move by Bum.

 

[1phlapdown]

Bum escapes!
Edit: runs, now we need some runs

 

[Stokes1931]

Posey out at home on Panda's double. Why send him with no outs? Took a perfect throw to get him.

Now Pencil grounds out on a 3-0 count.

Up to BB9. And the FPOM to end the inning. Of course. Now 3-20 post ASB with RISP.

 

[Ibangedlolojones]

Flannery fucked up the whole inning......

Posey walks on 4 pitches ... Panda doubles on the 1st pitch ... Pence takes the first 3 for balls and then swings away ... Belt out on the 1st pitch .... 3 frteaking pitches for strikes ... a double (out at home) and two outs .... would have thought you make him work a little ... damn this is frustrating

 

[Ibangedlolojones]

How do you send a catcher with no outs from 1st base on a double ? In a one run game

Don't make first out at home, right?

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

Errors are starting to pile up for Crawford

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

Welp, that appears to be game. Offense lays an egg as does the bullpen. Bumgarner wasn't great but he was very good deserves better than what his teammates gave him.
