Stewart, that was awesome

Nice walk by Chris.

 

[mistgl]

Why did he have the green light to swing.....

 

[uclabruin094]

Why send him home???????? Huff is the slowest man on the planet, and we would have cleared the pitcher (who may have been able to drive in the run)

I'm going to have to catch this one on comcast replay. Have a good one guys - bear down and bring it home - only quality comments please.

Go Giants!!

but Bam Bam is my posting coach and I do Rowand's stance as I clatter over the keyboard.

When neither lineup is likely to have a whole lot of chances, you go for when you get one. Potentially scoring a run that may be the only run scored in the game is worth a lot more then clearing the pitcher.

I didn't see the play, but I trust Flannery's judgment. We gotta press to score whenever we can.

 

[Stokes1931]

RoRo 7 for his last 40, with no RBI's.

Clearly the best option is to keep playing him until he breaks out of his slump.

Yeah. As soon as he has a two hit game, he's gonna sit for a week.

Or maybe that's just for the rookies like Belt.

We have our Giants lineup posting tonight.....

This.

 

[filosofy29]

And that folks, is why you don't walk people. Especially with this lineup.

 

[Stokes1931]

I hate leadoff walks. Just sayin'.

 

[filosofy29]

No walk to set up the dp?

 

[filosofy29]

Oh fuck. Why don't you walk that guy? Unbelievable.

The Astros draw first blood.....and maybe the only blood drawn tonight.

 

[Stokes1931]

2-0

Game over

This is freaking unbelievable

 

[TheSaboteur]

:nonod:

 

[Stokes1931]

First extra base hit should win.

We lose.
