Miggy back in for Crawbaby; Hall gets a start.

Miggy with a bit of ownage vs. Pavano; Huff holds his own. No Twin has faced Bum....

3-2 Giants; Huff is the hero. Wilson gets the win.

The boys have to bring it home tonight...I've got my 8-1 record on the line. How many night games in SF can you wear cargo shorts to? I mean, if you're NOT insane.

Nice little run you're making there Twinkie fans, so sad it has to take a three day break

LOL, it has been nice.
Taking the series from the Rangers gave them a big boost I think.

A brief moment in history from that greatest of rivalries: Giants v. Twins:

June 4, 2003

Felipe Alou - I remember this game as if it were yesterday. It was the one where I warmed up a bunch of relievers for no reason while I looked like I’d rather be somewhere else.

A.J. Pierzynski - You know how when you look at a map of the world, and Pangea just makes sense? Like, South America just looks like it fits into Africa? That’s kind of how it was when I saw Stan Conte’s crotch. I looked at it, looked at my knee ... and it just fit. I don’t believe in destiny, but I saw something magical that day.

Barry Bonds - Wait, you want me to remember something about the time I won a game in the ninth? Narrow it down, junior.

Jerome Williams - LaTroy Hawkins gave up a double to Richie (Auilia), and I remember thinking, man, this guy suuuuucks. Fastballs, string-straight, right down the middle. I should have just retired after the trade. That was nature’s way of telling me to retire.

IIRC, it's his brother's ring?

[powerchord86]

Yeah, it's my Bro's ring. It's all good. I know it was just a good natured jab... Ya jerk.. lol

I figured for the area you were in, it must have been for school.

But he was also going to UNLV at the same exact time.

Pretty impressive for a 5'3" fat kid, don't'ca think?
