I would have preferred 2nd and 3rd with one out.

Posey: best Giants homegrown position player since Will Clark. Yes, better than Matt Williams.

 

[SFGRTB]

Good pick by the fan. They usually drop those down the line.

Better than Will, too.

 

[msgkings322]

Better than Will, too.

Hmmm. I'd say too early to say. We thought Lincecum was better than Marichal too...now...?

Don't tell Will that, or else there will be no more gifs

?? Why?

Hard hit ball by Ross=DP.

Hard hit grounder by Spil...=1st and 2nd with no outs.

Crazpp!!

I never thought Timmy was better than Marichal, but then they played in different era's too. Hard to compare them. What gives the nod to posey over Will is the positional adjustment.

Ross' ball was hit harder. But that's baseball for ya and it's why we love it.

Fair enough but still too early to say...Posey obviously better now in his rookie year. If he's still crushing ABs in years 3-5 then it's definitive.

 

[SFGRTB]

that ball was literally 3 feet away from his bat.

 

[gp956]

SACRILEGE!!!!

(true)

but

SACRILEGE!!!!!

and I was one of the "Will is God" crowd.

 

[SFGRTB]

That was not a good pitch after he swung at a pitch 3 feet away

 

[msgkings322]

God love 'im. Still good Chez.

Let's get him 2-3 more runs and we can book this one!

He will be, barring injury. Remember, Will's Texas/Bal years were notably below the norms he achieved with the Giants.
