Great Win
Of course I saw none of it up in the Idaho mountains but the last 50 or so posts from you guys told me it was a “great win”. I’m only changing the date on the POTG, obviously. We go up 3-0, then it’s tied 4-4, still we find a way to win. Gutty team performance to take back the lead and the win, that’s what playoff teams do….
I’m 110% behind the Fontenot pick up. I haven’t read what others have said about it yet, will try to later this morning. He was already taking time away from Theriot before he was traded to the Dodgers. I remember when those to came onto the scene, the Cubs felt like they had found their middle infield for the next 5 years. But, sometimes things don’t always work out as planned. Fontenot will be fine, I was actually a little surprised by how few SB’s he had but maybe I was thinking of Theriot. Regardless, we gave up NADA and now have a legit mlb option to plug into 3rd or 2nd and Bochy won’t feel hamstrung to have to play Pablo or Freddy all the time…..
A Place To Talk About Giants Baseball 
Dirty, as Krukow would say, has Ownage on the Pads. Probably why he popped off about the sweep. That, and as Dennis says, it’s friday night and the orange jerseys 9-0…Broom Hilda I hope is lurking in orange.
Romo is wrong. It’s Torres now more than ever.
Wrong on Giants MVP. Movin’ on up for RoY
That made no sense. I meant Posey has a shot at RoY but I agree about Torres
Yeah don’t shoot the messenger…Young Jimmy Olsen just reporting the facts.I agree it’s Torres,Huff is still right there as well.slipping some.Can Torres and Burrell split Comeback player of year as well?
Torres hasn’t come back from anything. He just *is* this year
…or C. Aubrey Huff
When I think of Torres, I remember Magic playing center in the 1980 NBA finals. Andres would probably lead the team in RBI if he hit 3 or 4.
Hell, win the game on your day off…
All this SCARFACE talk reminds me when I was with this really cute girl. As we were about to get into the throughs of passion I said:
“Shay hello to my leetle friend”
And she said:
“You ain’t kidding”
You wanna play rough?
Believe it or not, this clip ends up better then my night did
I love Torres, but Byrd misplayed that ball–as Soriano did in game 1. You can kind of understand why Zambrano blew his top. Anyway, my larger point is while we didn’t pitch our best, one of the things that separates us is our strong defense. Day in, day out. Our outfielders don’t miss that shit. Nor our infielders. And whatever you want to say about how Boche prepares a team, our players don’t make the mental mistakes you see others do. I like how we are looking.
Even if Byrd catches it, the G’s still win, Ed. Sac fly, one out.
Here’s a little Trivia fact……Pat Burrell is the all time HR king from the State of Arkansas.With his 275 HR’s he passed one of my favorite 3rd Basemen’s Brooks “the vacuum” Robinson who had 268 HR. Robinson was born in Little Rock Ark and Burrell was born in Eureka Springs Ark.
Byrd misplayed the ball??!! So fucking what? He hit it 400 feet. I could have scored. Ed, that remark is BAD..
How Byrd played it had ZERO bearing on it being the game winner. The only diff is it was a single instead of a sac fly. Get a grip, Ed.
Well, there’s reason his monicker ends in Exile
Maybe Ed doesn’t realize it was one out. All Andres had to do was get it deep enough to score Rowand from third. One hop over the CF wall? That’ll do it. Byrd could have caught it but it made no diff.
Huff, Panda, Torres and Juan especially have good numbers vs. Richard. Rowand, not so much. Bochy listened to me last time about playing Ish vs the lefty. It’s time again, skipper.

Ballgame!
I’m thinking tomorrow is going to be Orange Chicken from the local Chinese takeout place, a vodka ‘n’ orange from the local bar, watching/dancing “The Cure in Orange” DVD after the game, and as a nightcap sleep aid, figuring out the crossword puzzle task (42 down) “What rhymes with ‘Orange’?”.
What rhymes with orange?
FUCKING BLACK!!
Watch A Clockwork Orange, Mr Bill..
Well Twin…If Byrd does ketch it he does have a shorter throw to the fans in the bleachers for a game winning ball,that was his best option.grin.
Oh, more than a grin, kat. That called for a gay-ass smiley face
🙂
“Bochy listened to me last time about playing Ish vs the lefty” It wasn’t against a lefty, it was against Lowe but Rowand had big numbers against the guy, he went with Travis anyway…
And Bochy listened to who?
Are we in sophland here?
Yeah, the “… rhymes with orange” will be a bitch figuring out that one. Sigh… guess I’ll just go home, masterbate, worship the devil, and alphabetize my pasta shapes. The “usual”. Organization will set you free!
Excellent plan
It works out pretty will till: “Anellini, Bucatini, Cavatappi … Fettuccine, Perciatelli” … oh shit — Perciatelli *is* Bucatini, just a different regional name. Now what?!
This time you will see Rowand, Dennis…
Who would *you* like to see tomorrow, TF?
Really on Orange Friday Night the only DVD after the game should be “A Clockwork Orange'”Those wankers and bangers were quite the fighting spirit like the Giants!
I’m singing in the rain . . .
That helps mrmbill. He’s been thinking of “…the ol’ in-out-in-out”
LOL! umm … watching that movie is nearly as much torture as watching a Giants late inning “give up” … then coming back to win the game. Nice job you’re keeping on theme here, ‘Kat!
No time for the old in-and- out love,i’m hear to read the meter.
” It had been a wonderful evening and what I needed now, to give it the perfect ending, was a little of the Ludwig Van. ”
Travis vs. Rowand, Dennis ? Rowand should get the start. Travis has a barely decent BA against LHers but no pop at all. Aaron has performed well in his spot starts, it’s time to accept him as a role player. Travis is getting plenty of playing time and producing the way he’s being used. Give it a rest, pal.
Okay. Cut and paste time:
There was me, that is Alex, and my three droogs, that is Pete, Georgie, and Dim, and we sat in the Korova Milkbar trying to make up our rassoodocks what to do with the evening. The Korova milkbar sold milk-plus, milk plus vellocet or synthemesc or drencrom, which is what we were drinking. This would sharpen you up and make you ready for a bit of the old ultra-violence.””
The author of the book and co-screenwriter, Anthony Burgess, devised a kind of original English dialect, slang language. He was such an expert of languages, he was called upon to create new languages often. In fact, in QUEST FOR FIRE, they weren’t just grunting and groaning, they were speaking diologue created by Burgess. A language he devised. And by all this, what I’m trying to say is…
SANCHEZ!! START THE PADRES SWEEP TOMORROW!!
A lot of that is Russian, Ted . . .
Good night, folks. Just sub Rowand for Travis and you have the LU against Richard, with Huff moving to 1B. Saturday Fontenot should get his first start.
I think for Woman,most of Aaron starts are similar to spotting.
I have no idea what that means.
What are ya?
Anthony Burgess?
Hey dad, there’s a strange fella sittin’ on the sofa munchy-wunching lomticks of toast.
Goodnight gentlemen (question mark)
I’ll try that here. A lot of the words in A Clockwork Orange are Russian, Ted . . .
We’re still like some 20-odd hours away from tomorrow’s first pitch, and I’m already jacked up for the game. This is the biggest series since, um,well, who gives a flying fart about the past, this is the biggest series to date. No goddamn excuses for tomorrow, gentlemen. We come out fast, and we come out hard. Grab the early lead and never look back.
Can you say, sweep? I can. We’re gonna sweep those Cinderellas the hell outta here. I’m sick of their shit. They need a good ass kicking. And who better to kick those sorry bastards than our Giants. The beat down starts tomorrow night. Dirty said we’re gonna win and sweep and by golly that’s just what we’re gonna do. Buh-bye Friars. First place will be ours come Sunday afternoon. Hope you enjoyed your flight while it lasted, but your plane has reached its final destination. Just remeber, your seat can be used as a flotation device. You lose.
Dirty’s numbers vs possible Padre hitters for tomorrow.

Good night.
OH GOD, TEDSPE … Burgess!!! (heh, I’m typing with a big laugh and smile) … too funny, Ted!! Well… we’re wearing the worst gayest of Orange tomorrow, Sanchez is pitching which means Rolaids, Valium, Meditation, Vodka, and Chanting My Syllable that Dolly Llama gave me at the 7-11 as a woman gave birth and then rolled 357.
Umm… we’re winning tomorrow. Period. Even if I have to go on the field to hand the umpire his service dog’s leash.
Ken rosenthal is reporting the giants signed Jose guillen . Nice now have uribe punk his ass in the clubhouse to keep him in line. I like the signing !!!
