A Place To Talk About Giants Baseball

Great Win and Another Manny Quit Job…..

Posted in Uncategorized by Flavor on August 30, 2010

After impossibly giving up that lead our guys really showed me something yesterday– They didn’t waste much time either, did they? They steamrolled the bottom of the 7th and re-took the lead in like 2 minutes. Very professional win and a fun game to watch……

The Dodgers really got their money’s worth on that 50 mil they gave Manny, didn’t they? The first year he gets busted for steroids and loses 50 games. This year he happily picked up his player option and proceeded to incur about 12 calf injuries throughout the season. When I first heard he was White-Sox bound I actually thought it might help the Dodgers along the lines of when the Raiders ditched Jamarcus (No)Muscle. But with the McCourt’s divorce case starting TODAY I think that circus will be enough to bury the Dodgers who are pretty much buried as we speak……

We’ve got 31 games left. Is 18-13 doable? I’m not too worried about the WC or the division. Either is fine. And San Diego has to deal with a 10 game road trip in the middle of September just as their young pitching staff is maxing out on their innings pitched for the year. Plus we get ’em for the final  3 of the regular season. With Philly focus and marching toward their usual spot in the post season I think the division is still our best shot at making the post season this year…….

  9. unca chuck said, on August 30, 2010 at 9:49 pm

  10. max808 said, on August 30, 2010 at 9:49 pm

    EATMERAW, Ross. Go back to fuckin Miami, pronto. Take Freddie with you. Told you he shoulda kept Dirty in there. Fuckme.

  12. unca chuck said, on August 30, 2010 at 9:50 pm

    It was a shit throw

  13. delmardennis said, on August 30, 2010 at 9:50 pm

    You know why Cody fucked up that play?

    Because we didn’t plunk that fucker for his bat flip job against Matty.

    You always plunk people. always.

  14. unca chuck said, on August 30, 2010 at 9:51 pm

    One more time, guys. . . ..

  15. delmardennis said, on August 30, 2010 at 9:51 pm

    Plunk him.

  16. Michael said, on August 30, 2010 at 9:52 pm

    The throw was right there, you’re fucking nuts, Chuckles. Jesus. They’ve showed it over and over. Fuckwad is out if it doesn’t his his arm.

  17. mrmrbill said, on August 30, 2010 at 9:52 pm

    Is Randy Winn available for RF?

  18. delmardennis said, on August 30, 2010 at 9:52 pm

    There are rules in baseball. When those rules are not adhered to, paybacks are a motherfucker.

    Plunk him.

  19. PawlieKokonuts said, on August 30, 2010 at 9:53 pm

    I cannot take this. I am on Dennis’s ledge, hanging my my fingernails, a Harold Lloyd caricature.

  20. delmardennis said, on August 30, 2010 at 9:54 pm

    Cock-teasing son of a fuck. I hate baseball.

  21. unca chuck said, on August 30, 2010 at 9:55 pm

    It was on its 3rd bounce. Fuck that. If its in the air he;s out by 10′ FFFFFFFFFFFFUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  22. delmardennis said, on August 30, 2010 at 9:55 pm

    Did I mention that I hate baseball? Fuck that. Ishi smashed that shit.

  23. unca chuck said, on August 30, 2010 at 9:56 pm

    Everyone fucking lost. Coulda gained on everyone.

    ONE TIME, Ppsey

  24. Michael said, on August 30, 2010 at 9:56 pm

    I can’t even look at that Splash cesspool after this one. I’d get the Scotts banned for eternity.

  25. alleykat said, on August 30, 2010 at 9:56 pm

    Fuck Bochy for bringing a worn out Wilson in there. You still had the lefty match up Gonzalez/Sanchez stay with the percentages.

    • DJLoo said, on August 30, 2010 at 9:58 pm

      Kat’s right. He deserved another batter at least….

  26. unca chuck said, on August 30, 2010 at 9:57 pm

    You gotta be fucking kidding me.

    What a motherfucker that was.

  27. PawlieKokonuts said, on August 30, 2010 at 9:57 pm

    Five words: worst loss of the year.

  28. wswinb4igo said, on August 30, 2010 at 9:57 pm

    this one sticks in your craw…

  29. Michael said, on August 30, 2010 at 9:58 pm

    And three hard hit shots to end it. I hate this game.
    I’ll say this, great effort but walking Fowler could not happen.

    • wswinb4igo said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:00 pm

      he k the guy twice…then he has him1/2 and cant finish…just a shame he wasn’t close on the 3 balls…bochy mite have stayed with him. but he missed badly after 1/2

  30. delmardennis said, on August 30, 2010 at 9:59 pm

    First person to say anything about the Giants, this game or baseball in general gets fucking plunked.

    Shut the fuck up tonight. Nothing good happened. Be pissed. Hate the game.
    Hate people. Hate Cody Ross. Hate yourself. Hate God. Hate me. Do not, I repeat, do not say anything positive.

    This fucking sucks.

  31. PawlieKokonuts said, on August 30, 2010 at 9:59 pm

    I’d out-Lasorda with expletives if I could.

  32. Michael said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:00 pm

    Fuck anyone for blaming it on Bochy. 30 pitches in 5 days for Wilson, you’re full of shit to put that on Bochy. It’s on Cody Cockfuck Ross. Period.

  33. unca chuck said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:00 pm

    That ain’t on Wilson or Bochy. Ross made the big mistake.

  34. DJLoo said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:01 pm

    !!!oooooooH-oooooooooW

  35. mrmrbill said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:01 pm

    well, that just capped a typically Monday-like, Monday.

  36. PawlieKokonuts said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:01 pm

    A loss of Biblical proportions. Just another day for Job & Co.

  37. delmardennis said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:01 pm

    Fuck this goddamn game of baseball. Fuck the game of inches bullshit. It’s horseshit.
    We lost. Bottom line. Sanchez great effort? Matter not. We fucking lost. We fucking lost.

    Son of a motherless fuck. I could never watch this piece of shit game ever again.
    This is bullshit.

  38. ferrethead said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:02 pm

    Bleah…

  39. unca chuck said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:02 pm

    Sanchez has to throw the ball a little farther.

  40. Michael said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:03 pm

    Wilson has worked more than this dozens of fucking times. Sanchez has what? One motherfucking CG EVER and he walks the lead off guy. NO FUCKING WAY he leaves him in. Get a brain.

  41. mrmrbill said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:04 pm

    I picked the wrong week to give up watching the great sport of curling.

  42. wswinb4igo said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:04 pm

    no way around it…that 1 hurts. you can only hope the other SP get on a roll.

  43. delmardennis said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:04 pm

    This shit ranks up there with that piece of shit last year in Colorado with Miller giving it up.
    I’m so goddamn pissed I can’t even think straight. Fuck baseball.

  44. Michael said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:05 pm

    Everybody else lost and their dumbshit fans are bitching, too.

  45. DJLoo said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:06 pm

    Need a big bounce back from “Boom-goner” tomorrow.

  46. delmardennis said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:08 pm

    “Rough one?” Papa called this a “rough one?” WTF is he talking about. This shit is catastrophic. Life changing. Wanna make you kick your wife and fuck your dog bad. Rough? He’s fucking crazy.

  47. xootsuit said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:09 pm

    Fucking Bochy. If Guillen had been in RF, he would’ve been so slow to react and move he wouldn’t’ve been able to misplay that line drive in the 9th, no matter how hard he tried. Can of corn. Clearly, Guillen should’ve been in there, for his D.

    The play at 3B that let the tying run in was strange. How does a straight (and weak) throw on the line to 3B like that bounce out of play on a mlb field? (Don’t tell me it hit the runner; that deflection caused minimal change in the trajectory.) The field design should put the end of the dugout far enough toward HP to prevent extra bases like that, etc.. Anyway, very bad break.

  48. PawlieKokonuts said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:09 pm

    cocksuckinmotherfuckindouchebagpieceofshit waste of my night

    • Nipper said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:15 pm

      Teach those words to Soph. She would enjoy them.

    • eddacker415 said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:16 pm

      ahh, say what you really mean; don’t hold back.

  49. Michael said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:09 pm

    First person that rips Bochy for defending his guy is Room Fuckwad for this life and the next one.

  50. delmardennis said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:12 pm

    We’ve lost two games in the past 5 days when we were leading after 8.
    We were 60-1, now 60-3. Catastrophic.

  51. delmardennis said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:14 pm

    The Password is “Not your year.”

    Fuck baseball.

  52. Nipper said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:16 pm

    Poor Dennis

    • delmardennis said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:17 pm

      Don’t fuck with me tonight, Nipper.

  53. delmardennis said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:16 pm

    Sometime when I see Dave Flemming, I just want to punch him in the face.

  54. Michael said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:17 pm

    Bullshit to that, Dennis. And fuck Greg Papa, that East Bay homer SOB. I forgot what a bush league TD call he has. Like a 4th rate soccer announcer..
    Anyway, it’s only catastrophic if it affects the rest of the series..
    And what’s with the “Boom-Goner” crap? He had a bad outing in a series where Kuiper could have hit it out. I expect a good outing..

  55. xootsuit said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:18 pm

    First guy who tries to ignore how badly Bochy attempted to defend his guy (what was that speculation, an errant “air current”? something like that) hosts room fuckwad.

    This loss tonight is not the worst loss of the year. That loss is yet to come. So is the best win.

  56. Michael said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:23 pm

    Eat it. It is to Bochy’s eternal credit that he doesn’t “Piniella” his guys.

  57. Sportdude said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:24 pm

    augh! No F bombs for me . It has all been said…Seems to always be something….A starter finally has a good game and fuck…. I love Wilson, but 2/3 saves he has blow have been death blow stab me in the heart losses..

  58. Nipper said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:24 pm

    Sanchez looked good tonight. That’s the positive. Now another game tomorrow. That’s another positive.

    • delmardennis said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:30 pm

      I said don’t fuck with me. Take that positive shit back over to the Splash. I’d imagine that dump could use it ’bout now.

  59. Sportdude said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:25 pm

    Xoot, I hope you are wrong. Worst loss of the year was the Cinci game. Down 10-1 and take lead into the 9th. Wilson HAS to save that game..

  60. delmardennis said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:27 pm

    It’s already catastrophic because it affected this game. We could win the next two and this one will never be made up. Best we can hope for is a 5-4 stand now. No good.

    I hope to hell the boys feel better than I do. No fucking way in hell I could play tomorrow.

  61. Michael said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:27 pm

    A manager should NEVER trash his guys over an error like that. It was not a mental error.

  62. zumarust said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:38 pm

    I don’t think Ross should be crucified for that play. It was just a freak play. The bat splintered in half. 99.9% of the time the outfielder is going to have to come in to get a flare, and Ross was trying to make a great play and take away the flare hit. This was the .1% of the time when the ball is still hit hard with a bat that was broken in half. Their best power hitter batting. Ross should have factored that in, but in the heat of the moment, he read too much in the bat breaking.
    My only beef with the entire play is how does Wilson not block that ball from going into the dugout. He has to find a way to stop that ball.

  63. Michael said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:39 pm

    God, at first I presumed Xoot was being sarcastic with his post saying Guillen should have been in for his D. Now I’m not so sure.
    Anyway, have to beat Esmeralda Rogers tomorrow, then Timmy mans up Wednesday or time to shut the fuckwad down. He’s killing them…

  64. Michael said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:45 pm

    Well, maybe I’ll go with Chucklefuck and blame it Fruckie. He’s a disgusting little runt, he’s as good a choice as any for fucktard of the game.

  65. EdGdsnInExile said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:46 pm

    And one of the problems with a loss like this is we’re just running out of games to play.

  66. Michael said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:49 pm

    30 left. Still just 1 1/2 out. Sure, it’s brutal but it’s one L. Not the 43 that Denny thinks it is.

  67. Michael said, on August 30, 2010 at 10:59 pm

    Fruckie is also the only little guy in the game who couldn’t score on the Burrell double. I’m flabbergasted at how slow that POS is. Yeah, I like it. The more I think of it, the better it feels putting it on Fruckie.

  68. eddacker415 said, on August 30, 2010 at 11:06 pm

    well baseball is a game of inches and this loss hurt by feet. The baseball gods are testing the team’s character for tomorrow. And I hafta believe. Watching the replays broken bats may have won this game. The statistics were there to keep Sanchez in for one more batter. And for a defensive switch top of the ninth one run game. My bitch is another no decision and playing 500 ball while the pads lose 5 straight.

  69. zumarust said, on August 30, 2010 at 11:12 pm

    People will rip Bochy as if Bochy isn’t ripping himself most of all. Anyone that’s ever coached at any level knows the agony of second-guessing your own game decisions. Bochy will kick himself hard for a long time for not having Nate in there in the ninth. But at the time, who was really thinking about that? I wasn’t.

  70. TedSpe said, on August 30, 2010 at 11:16 pm

    Just catching up here.

    Nipper…fuck off and go away
    Seriously, you’re working my nerves, you sophalitus assfilled prick funglatitious mofo!

    The Giants lost
    So it seems
    Moving on, motherfuckers…

  71. Michael said, on August 30, 2010 at 11:25 pm

    Ross is considered a good defensive RFer, it’s total hindsight to suggest Shitholtz should have been in. Plus we, as usual, have THOUSANDS of couch potatoes at the keyboard when the 9th inning starts, and NOT ONE PERSON in the whole motherfucking world goes “Where’s Nate?”

  72. snarkk said, on August 30, 2010 at 11:32 pm

    This will contribute little to the conversation here, nor solve anythiing. But, I heard the game driving up 99 tonight towards the Bay. If you were outside somewhere near Pelandale Avenue and 99 in Modesto around 9:45 tonite, you might have heard something like this go past you on 99 at about 75 mph, with full Doppler Effect:

    “FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Sorry for any inconvenience….

  73. Michael said, on August 30, 2010 at 11:34 pm

    I’d give you the POTD for that one, snarkk.

  74. Unca Chuck said, on August 31, 2010 at 8:25 am

    Fuck, Dennis. I thought I overreacted. Did that hurt? Yeah, it hurt like a motherfucker. Did it kill the season? Fuck no. The good news is Sanchez pitched a great game. The bad news? Well, the errors. Ross picked a bad time to misjudge that fly ball. Hey, it happens. It’s the curse of Giant RFers. From Jack Clark to Candy Maldonado to Jose Cruz Jr to now Cody Ross, there appears to be a curse that strikes at the worst possible moments.

    And, yeah, whoever mentioned it is right. The dimensions of the dugouts pretty much ensure that every ball that gets by a 1st or 3rd baseman guarantees and extra 90′ since the dugout openings are in the line of fire. Not well thought out. They ned to put gates up at least.

    In the end, it’s one game. 30 games to go. They have 5 to make up ion SD, 1.5 to make up on Philly. The Giants face Mrs. Rogers today. They should pound the fuck out of him with little problem. So, something like 7-2.

    One last thing. Someone get Freddie a smaller pair of fucking pants. He looks like he’s running around in his goddamn pajamas out there. It slows him down.
