GDT Champs @ Mutts 5/5

[tzill]

Lineup:

CF Rowand
2B Burriss
SS Fontenot
1B Huff
RF Schierholtz
LF Ross
3B Tejada
C Whiteside
P J. Sanchez

60 degrees; sunny. Good day to rest Posey, as he's Von Slumpenstein right now. Also, Freddy and Sir Bat out as well. We should have good outfield defense and that's key for a fly ball pitcher like Chez. Breakfast baseball, me likey!

Oh, and this, from the NY Post today:

It was hardly a fair fight: The Freak against The Weak, Tim Lincecum against the Mets.

I still get the heebie jeebies when I see that lineup...Nate batting 5th? Fonty 3rd? Burriss at the 2?

I know we got injuries, but wow.

We'll probably win 8-2.

 

[sfsportsfan]

goddamn. why do we gotta play at 10? i gotta leave to school in 20 minutes

 

[sfsportsfan]

ah shit, giant-killer extraordinaire starting in center

 

[tzill]

Crappy first inning...only made Pelfry throw 10 pitches....

 

[tzill]

Chez with fair command (for him). 19 pitches in the first. One walk.

 

[tzill]

this inning is going to decide the game, I think.

 

[tzill]

If Chez can stop the bleeding at one run, we can hang in this game. If not, we're probably toast.

 

[tzill]

Nice grab by Huff!!

 

[msgkings322]

Classic Sanchez start. 40+ pitches through 2, tons of walks...

I won't be sorry when they trade him in the last year of his contract instead of paying up to sign him.

Gotta turn this off for a while...Chez in vintage all over the place form.

1.2 IP 40 pitches 3 BB 1 ER so far with two guys on base.....makes me want to tear my hair out.

Hope you turned it off right as you typed that...3 ER now.

Hard to sweep teams in this league.

I wonder what excuse tito would have for Sanchez for that inning?

 

[gp956]

Hu was that?

 

[calsnowskier]

I thought Hu was on first???

Oooh good one! Umps + maybe something about how the sun is positioned during a 1:00 game.

 

[msgkings322]

Well played, sir.

 

[msgkings322]

Some games you are just not scheduled to win. This....is one of those.

 

[calsnowskier]

Chez is worse than normal this season... Almost 2009 bad...
