What is it with Colorado and DEVASTATING losses?
I couldn’t catch the entire game last night, I bounced in the 7th. I woke up and did my “read the blog” thing to find out what happened. Ugh. That move has turned into bad luck for us, it always seems we suffer some type of excruciating loss when I do that…..
It was nice to read the Merc and see that several players stopped by Ross’ locker to offer support, it sounds like this was just a freak play that could have happened to anyone…….
Brian Wilson is your closer who is strong as an ox. He’s an all star. You bring him into that situation every single time. I’ve got no problem with that move whatsoever. Dirrrrty is always a pitch away from disaster anyway. Did anyone want to see him lose the game in the 9th? Exactly. The 9th inning is Wilson’s in a situation like that, period……..
The only good thing that ever comes from me missing games like this is that it doesn’t leave the same pain in my soul that watching it would have done…….
I will absolutely take one after the way that started.
Good eye by Pablo and then Uribe does as expected.
Christ. Gonna be one of those nights?
Think Uribe is tired .209 .575 ops in August.
Is Guillen playing RF with his back to the wall?
Well, playing deep is traditionally what slow and/or poor OFers do.
Understood. Xoot may in fact not have been ruefully ironic last night. Guillen would not have had to move to catch Gomez’s fly ball.
may in fact have been . . . .
This telecast is extra annoying tonight. Amazing how many ways they’ve come up with to distract you from the game.
love the dp..
Nice break on that DP. But Bum’s pitching well. Guy looks like he can make it through Sept.
btw, anybody else rooting against the WSox? (Well, anybody else except Twins fans?) I just don’t think I could stand to watch Manny, Andruw, JPierre and Pierzynski in the PS.
Flat enough for ya?
Az beating on SD and Correia 7-3
Snakes up by 4 . . . bottom of the 5th . . .
Big Country!
Now that’s a wake up call!
That was a nice piece of hitting by Bum.Ball was scolded and placed perfectly.
Bum is gassed. Do these guys do any exercise?
well, if he hit one like that in the minors he probably gets to trot around the bases.
Bum hit over .360 in the minors I think. Sure demonstrated a nice swing there . . .
They still need to get more pitches out of Mr.Rogers though.Bum is throwing alot more.Gonna ketch up with him unless he gets a quick inning are 2.
Best throw in a month, great time.
Sure is nice to have Johnny Buster Posey Bench behind the dish.What a rocket and that was all him,Bum did a lousy job holding the runner on.
FRUCKIE!!!!
bull dog performance by Bum…good job
A gutty effort for sure. Looked like he had nothing to me.
He got a little lucky and a little good.
what’s the betting line on Ubaldo vs Timmy tomorrow nite?
A fistful of runs would be nice here . . .
Nice , , . . .
Anyone think that was more than a little odd Tracy let the guy hit? He’s on the road and behind, 8 outs left….unless he thought the kid capable of a MadBum whack, I don’t see giving an out away.
Now he’s run out of gas and has to come out anyway. Tracy just doesn’t impress me.
We need a catcher’s interference here.
Real nice hit and run play with Posey.Still i’m suprised the second basemen wasn’t covering on that play,it should be automatic on that.And it would have been a DP had he.Take the break though.
Sorry but strike 3 was not close.
Come on Panda, you got caught watching the paint dry.
Joyce has a good rep but he’s been flipping a coin all night.
Blade, re: Kenji Shibuya and your earlier post. I remember that he passed on just a few months back. Unfortunate, but time does march on…
He lived to be pretty old tho (into his 80s?) as I remember. I doubt any of the present day roid boys last that long.
That could hurt. Strike 3 to Uribe was one he should hit 500 feet.I have no nails left.
Brutal 1st and 3rd no outs.Blown AB’s by Panda and Uribe. Giant’s baseball TORTUE!!!!!!!
Fuck. Thius team pisses me off so bad at times.
Get this Fowker out . . .
he went down swinging at least…not like sandoval.
Who closes tonight?
Kenji Subuya RIP with his famous “sleeper hold.”
Huffster!
Fowler’s been on base about 12 times less than last time we saw him. Nice stop by Huff!
Yeah, I was just gonna say that, Max . . .
I dont fucking believe this
dude, you guys hexed em before. Now it’s legit, unless they get a few more, lol
Oh FUCK.
The Rockies are my new least favorite team.
We put 2 on with no outs, and this is what happens.
Affeldt just flat stinks now. Why was he throwing to a RH hitter?…
Unbelievable-12th ball to *ever* go out of ATT to RF by a RHer..
Not shocking to me Mora goes yard,after the Giants fucked up last inning.
Shit, that was like the 12th rightie to hit one out to RF.
Of course it had to be NOW.
Last year’s Giants with this year’s Affeldt win about 77 games.
He threw the ball away as he should. It’s the Gomez Curse.
Torres has been awful quiet lately
Andres the Giant!
YUNGO!!
Scratching and clawing for every bloody win these days.
OH baby!
fucking Torres … amazing! woot woot!!
MVP does it again!
Thank you Andres Torres!!!!!!!!
TORRID!
heh heh heh. He said ultra mo . . .
#56: My magic number.
That was one of the weirdest looking HR swings ever. I’ll take it…
heads up bunt by franchez after the HR…lets get him home
Wow . . . Fuggly AB there Huffster.
This is a great move to back his guy-Ross pinch hits and goes to RF for the 9th..
Come ON. ONE hit.
Hey Kruk…It’s always an easy take 3-0.
Beimel should be a punching bag
THERE you go!!!
ROY
That’ll Buster it open.
little breathing room now…lets get them home too.
POSEY OFF THE BRICKS!!!!!!
BUSTER! He ain’t no hockey player, but what a stick handler.
ROY with the clutch hit. Sweet. Get some more, now…
