GDT Philth @ World Champs 8/4

[Stokes1931]

From Baggs:

Cliff Lee faces the Giants for the first time since the Game 5 clincher Nov. 1. Not exactly facing the same lineup, though.

Rowand cf
Keppinger 2b
Sandoval 3b
Beltran rf
Cabrera ss
Ross lf
Huff 1b
Stewart c
Bumgarner lhp

Bum's first game as a 22 year old.

I will miss most of the game. I am taking my son to a San Jose Giants game in SoCal (High Desert) tonight. Wanna see some of the future.

Bring home a win tonight, OK, fellas?

 

[recon]

going to be a fun game.

going to be a fun game.

The win I am asking for does not apply to recon. :p

Can't believe Cabrera is batting 5th again...

Wait, he has a lifetime avg. of .273 against Lee and is hitting, you guessed it, .273 against lefties this year.

Boch is a genius.

He is a sabermetric guru

Not sure how they could've got around it, but I can't say I'm thrilled with DeRosa in, Belt out...thoughts?

 

[TheSaboteur]

No Utley? Nice.

I really hate what they're doing with Belt.

 

[ColinCoby]

I really hate what they're doing with Belt.

DeRosa will be hurt again in 5...4...3...

Very strange how they've yo-yo'd Belt around this year.

 

[msgkings322]

I really hate what they're doing with Belt.

Agreed. Gotta blame Scott Cousins and the Injury Gods again on that. When a team has the massive injuries we do/did, you end up having to do all sorts of fucked up things.

Here we go!!! Good luck recon, but just enough to lose

Let's go Giants!!! Cmon MadBum, let's do it like it's October.

 

[msgkings322]

Anything less than 2 wins this series is a disaster...

I'm calling it: three wins!

 

[msgkings322]

Ugh. Already, with the torture?

 

[msgkings322]

Yep. Already, with the torture.

 

[SFAnthem]

Sucks about Belt but he will back during September callups.

 

[filosofy29]

Bum having the hit attack again.

 

[SFAnthem]

Stewie says NO!

 

[filosofy29]

NOICE Stewy!!!

He was SAFE! Tough break for the Phils.

 

[msgkings322]

Stewart at least has the gun. Siddown Jimmy!

 

[ColinCoby]

Nice!!!

This inning just changed big time.

Looked safe.
