Buzzkill Game
That one just sucked. Uribe had easily his worst game as a Giant and one of the worst single performances of a Giant this year. He only got saddled with 1 error but he bungled at least 4 plays and did nothing at the plate….
I have to admit, I like Randy Wolf– definitely a guy you’d want on your team. Back in July he gave up something like 15 runs in 5 innings. You wonder how a manager lets a guy stay in that long but it turns out that Wolf volunteered to stay out there to save their bullpen that was destroyed the night before. He’s been pretty reliable since then and outstanding in his last 2 starts. Tip your cap and move on…….
I didn’t look at the pitching match ups when I said we could easily sweep these guys. Gallardo goes today, always a tough pitcher. We’ve had our moments against him though….
And then Sunday looms. God’s day. You’re supposed to rest on that day, right? I don’t think God is gonna be too happy to see Zito working on Sunday. I forsee a severe punishment in the offing…….
A Place To Talk About Giants Baseball 
and tim is thinking even with my sac bunt we still get that run
he looks like someone that just got laid off
not happy
I think you guys were talking earlier in the week about NL manager of the year…I would have thought three weeks ago that Bud Black would easily get it. If the Rockies make the playoffs or Atlanta, I could just see the East Coast media playing favorites.
Dusty Baker will certainly get some votes, but if I had a vote right now, I think I do vote Bochy..and I have been riding his ass for 4 years…
What i don’t endorse is Bochy’s hunch of batting Uribe second tonight. Hell, this morning i was calling for him to sit as he’s been dragging lately, both at the bat, and even more so in the field. C’mon. RentMan would be no worse at SS. Also, A Panda here in the U.S. just gave birth today. As for batting for Lincecum, it was good for that run, getting SF into the game. Bullpen has been reliable in September and the arms are many and pretty loose. Also, now both Timmy and Madi are worked but not drained. Holding the Brewers in range depends on how good a judge and juggler Bochy happens to be tonight.
Excellent work there, get the guys right back up to keep swinging…
Kat and FatHeads , your need to blame Panda has blurred your vision.He was not a step from the bag, he would have had to backtrack and then had no chance at the plate or anywhere else. Tim gave up 4 hits-THAT is why they gave up two.
thank you…
you are absolutely right TF I think it was mostly the bat that broke that play
tim was looking strong; all things considered he would be out there getting outs, but I do not disagree with what happened, just pissed
that the doesn’t get a win tonight
talk about take some pine, meat
damn
Gallardo is at 93 pitches for six. Batters hungry for the BP.
Bullshit Twin.He was even with the bag 2 steps away.There was no backtracking to get back to the bag.And you have a fat slug Fielder who wasn’t running hard.Couldn’t have been an easier play.
I dont want to argue with you Twin, but I think he was right at the bag when he grabbed it with the replay I saw but I did not tape the game. If you watch it on replay, be interesting to get your perspective if he did get in front of the bag when he picked it up…
And BTW, I get the slur you have been trying to direct my way of late..I think that is a cheap shot, but I will let Flav/or the Big Giggity as he is now know known (Peace Be Unto Him) be the judge of personal attacks…
“FatHead” Christ, it’s practically a synonym of your screen name. Grow up, Nellie.
OK, that was how I took it at first…
But it is certainly not beneath you or WSW to take unprovoked cheap shots…
Just a diversion from the tension: everyone’s going on about Tulo, and it is remarkable, but the Jays’ Bautista hit 12 HRs in both May and August, and 11 in July. He drives in runs, he scores runs, and he walks. What a year!
The next smart thing head says will be his 1st….
Now what are you my wife…or mom is that you????
We all see their point…
short stretch there
Even if it was just two steps, dumbalaya, that’s about all they got the guy at the plate with on the FORCE. On a tag? Run scores and you’re saying what a dumbfuck he is for going that way. You forget: I’ve seen your act…
They may have two MVP candidates over there in Colorado..I guess Votto has the inside track..
Gallardo looks like he could throw 231 pitches.
and all of them unhittable it seems
So Runzler IS on the roster.
Fielder ain’t that slow for his size.
Fucking Fielder wasn’t even on the TV screen when Posey had the ball.What the fuck are you talking about.He was out by 5 feet or more.But whatever we will just agree to disagree.
how does he have time/or where to make the throw after he steps off 3b kat…the point is he didn’t do it….baseball people know why…end of topic
Palwie, how you feeling? I thought my son had pneumonia last month coming back from vacation, then I had the same symptoms. I am hoping you just had the nasty head/chest congestion from hell that a lot of people here in DC have had…
that’s what we said about Sandoval, last year
what defines baseball people??? the bullshit one throws around or believing the bullshit one throws around?
Come off the bag? The ball was hit to Panda, he juggled it but was no more than a large step away from tagging third and having at least two seconds to throw home. Would have been a hell of a play and can understand thinking that hey I’ve got to get the lead runner, but the play a great 3B would have made would have been to step on thid then throw home…baseball people..what fucking bullshit! Next you’ll say you owned the fucking Reds during the 70s…
FWIW, Baggs called Pablo’s decision “terrible.”
Our offense is a goddamn joke. This lineup is filled with more shit than Frank’s litter box.
I guess that makes Baggs a non-baseball, baseball beat guy.
he probably meant not goin round the horn…that wasn’t disscussed.
My take on Uribe stands. Bochy’s hunch backfired. Dude needs to sit for one or more games. He’s dragging.
Let it go, FatHead…
At least I am not banging heads with you T-Head
Twin Head….
Dennis, Wolf and Gallardo look like Dysdale and Koufax right now with our guys…we need the same miracle from that game in LA…let’s go Giants! Stay in first..
Wilson bailed the dumb redneck outta that one. WTF was he thinking taking Font’s ball.
Uribe was no hunch, he was 3 for 5 with a HR against Gallardo.
Wilson is dying his beard, that’s hilarious. If he had a cowboy hat on he’d look like an extra in an episode from Bonanza—he kinda looks like a sheriff who would get shot early on in the episode and Little Joe et al spend the rest of the show trying to expose the true killer……..
Back to back doubles from Huff-Posey…let’s go!!!
lets get a couple runs…
And Bochy’s decision on Tim can no longer be questioned on any level. Baggs seems freaked. They got a bases loaded one out with the top of the order up….considering his record in those situations, who wouldn’t have died to see Torres. Bonehead rules..
Lets Go Giants!!
bull fucking shit on that
fucking horse shit call
God hates us and he’s an asshole. That was fucking ball 4. Fuck him.
hilarious. CB Fuckner is a joke. Guys that wear thongs simply get no respect………
Horrible call but then a BowWow cut.
I think everyone at this site supported the Bochy move at the time, why are you bringing that up here? That’s Splash fodder………
I referred to Baggs-he seemed to freak. But fuck off.
He made 5 tweets about it. Don’t question my right to make BASEBALL posts now. You’re pissing me off.
you do a fabulous job of pissing yourself off……..
Don’t be jumping my posts. You don’t do it to the dumb shits, don’t do it to me again.
Fuck.
At least it was a power hack from Buster.
we got fucking hosed..goodnight gentlemen..
bleah… (couldn’t even be bothered to capitalize)
Barry Zito, stopper. Ha motherfucking ha.
1 run in two games is downright shameful.
pulling Lincy said to the offense….wake up.
Fuck. Piss. Shit. And Sunday looms. The leaves in my backyard are swirling around. It’s coming……….
and of course, we know the Dodgers will continue to lay down…Rockies are now just a game out from Padres…next weekend is going to be intense, intense baseball…
“Excuse me, Mr. Bucknor. Pete Rose is on line 3. Should I take a message?”
Well, we got Wainwright, Kershaw, and Zito tomorrow…3 teamer parlay
Wel, FuckPaul is all over Panda. But fuck that. Bigger issue: Uribe, Huff, Posey, Burrell 1-16 8 Ks…
existential dread
here’s hoping Tulowitzki has some bad pierogies or holubkis tonight thant land him on the DL
Okay. Well, we got Zito tomorrow. Sing with me children:

The play to Panda was just more then verified on the postgame replays.He fucking blew it and that cost them the ballgame.Stupid play when you know your team can’t score runs.No excuses not to have won the game,if Panda showed some intelligence.And Fuck Paul is all over him because he was right,just like me when i called it earlier.
Shut the fuck up. A loss by one isn’t on one guy. There are varying opinions on that play. As I Said: 1-18 8 Ks from non-Panda guys were just as huge.
Excuse me, 1-16.Panda decided for the sure thing, the problem was the low throw, not the decision. He’s everybody’s favorite whiping boy now, sometimes justifiably, sometimes not. But Katfuck harping on just Panda is total bullshit. I’d bet my bottom dollar you’re a morbidly obese fuck.
there’s no doubt there is ample blame to go around. And i agree, this has nothing to do with Pablo. Kuip called it, at this point in the year your offense can’t be sucking dick like this. And we’ve been smoking massive pole all month. Our outstanding pitching has masked it but the bats are flying one flap down. That don’t work if you’re a fucking bat……..
Sigh
Finally in the race and our hitters have rolled over worse than the Dodgers.
2 runs or less in 6 of last 8 games. We suck so bad at the plate right now that every player seems an easy out except Posey. Even Huff looks horrible now.
My buddy and I were talking …Would you swap our whole team for the Rockies? Same record, better Giant pitching etc, but after 4 years of this type of offense… Would any other team pinch hit for their ace in a 2-0 game in the 5th? (Disgraceful, and that is no slam on Bochy). Their games are so much more fun to dream about….
Pablo? He made a moderately bad throw. Fuck that. Our offense sucks dick for two straight games. But Pablo is the guy who blew it? Come on………
Our offense of late has been HR or bust. Once again tonight was BUST.
Gomez
There are few things more embarrassing than the Cardinal home uni’s tonight. Just change the fucking name back to Indians already and wear your regular goddamn home uni’s………
Flav, did you catch the ending of the ND/Mich St. game? Ballsy GW call of the century.
WTF is JT trying to convey on the rap? Talk about smoking pole. “I dunno” “I dunno”
Thanks, JT. That makes two of us.
Of course if it was Zito pitching tonight, you guys would be putting all the blame on him.
Panda blew it. Obvious to anyone unbiased.
Eat it, “Sam”. The blame is on Posey, Huff, Lincecum ( 4 hits in the inning), Burrell, Uribe, and Pablo.
Bonehead made the right call to take out Timmy for Scheisholz. The run scoring has been so putrid, he had no other choice, but to go for it. They did score a run. That’s what “hair on fire” managing is about, and you’ve got to do it in these Stretch games. The game is ON now, with the Pads and Rocks. SF has to win tomorrow, and leave town on a positive note. I’m going, rep the Flap, and bring some good Flap mojo. Giants get it done tomorrow with or without a decent start from the Zitman….
Jesus. Even when you’re attempting a compliment you call ’em Bonehead, Scheisholz…
What do you call Mr. Rodgers?
Panda blew it? You must be joking.
Denny— of course I saw that, it pre-empted the Indian game. There are few things I enjoy more than watching Irish coaches and players stand around looking like fucking dumbfuck fools who just got fucked by a play their team couldn’t come up with in a dream………..
BTW, the home plate umping so far the past two games has been horrendous. Last night, balls down main street get no strike call. Tonite, that called “strike” #2 in the 9th for Huff was so low, only Panda would have swung at it…
Sam–save me the trouble of banning you and displaying all of your personal information here and just get the fuck back to the Splash or Hell or Retard School or wherever you’re from……….
…Jersey?
Agree the blame for the loss goes to the offense. By the way, since a 21-30 start, Brewers have played .500. So they’re not as bad as written off. Anyway, Dennis don’t know what you heard from JT, but I thought he made two good points: one, it does affect hitters if there’s a lot of movement in the order of the lineup/they can’t expect the same person behind them, because they get pitched differently. And two, in discussing the whether Panda should throw home, he said Panda is not playing with a lot of confidence right now–meaning it affects his decision-making.
regardless of how we see that Panda play at third…it did not cost us the game.
MSU fake field goal was awesome. I don’t watch much college ball, but happened to check out that game while listening to my SDSU Aztecs choke away another game against a ranked opponent.
Speaking of uni’s, I dig the Hawaiian Punch font MSU is rocking these days.
Me and every other drunken dunce at the bar thought Pablo shoulda tagged 3rd. I also felt it was a quick hook for Tim. All meaningless.
At least ND lost and I got a great look at Jupiter just to the left of the moon walking home…
Well, they slaughterd Narveson in July.10 runs in 3.1. 3 HR ( Torres, Posey, Huff).
I got to chime in too on those Stanford uniforms. I was out for the evening and missed the Giants game, I turn on the Stanford game and it takes me a moment to realize I have it on the right game. I’m all for black uniforms when it makes sense. For Stanford, it doesn’t.
For Grambling it does…
it was 0-0 and two outs and Timmy let a bloop hit get in for two runs..perfectly right move to take him out for a pinch hitter.
Even though Torres ahd been tanking a bit (but maybe the appendix was affecting him?), we see what limitations we have offensively with him not in there…may be a further reflection he is indeed the mvp on the team…
We got hosed regardless. Ford should have been pinch running for Huff at first and no outs. I like our odds even with the shitty offense tonight to get that tying run in. Posey and Burrell were jsut swinging for the fences at that point and Axford pitched to their weakness of trying to go yard…I may just watch football all day tomorrow and pray…
Oh you pray. You pray *hard* my son
Huff swung at one of those pitches Snarkklefuck claims only Pablo swings at. AFTER the bad call. And he wasn’t covering, he gave it the BowWow..Buster had a good AB in the 9th, no issue- he went down on a HR hitters swing, just missed it.
BTW, see that John Bowker went deep tonight, he’d been 4 for 31 with the Bucs.
Final thoughts from the East Coast: more deft moves by the Manager of the Year, 4 innings of top-notch relief, and we are seeing just how much Torres means to the club.
Tomorrow will be ( my guess, rarely wrong on these)
Rent
Sanchez
Huff
Posey
Burrell
Guillen
Uribe
Ross
Nice touch leaving out He Who’s Name Will Not Be Spoken
