Game Time

Posted in Uncategorized by Flavor on October 17, 2010

Have some problems with this morning’s post so I started a new thread. We could easily go 2-0 here, I almost think we’re a favorite tonight (despite being +153)

The goddamn AccuScore Projections over at ESPN only gives us a 34% of winning tonight.
Well they can take 100% of my foot up their ass. Screw their projections. Go Dirrrty!

But our lineup still sucks Chef’s Chocolate Salty Balls. With NO Whitey of course.

+152 now Flav. I liked us at +153, but 152 isn’t enough. What happened to my 3/5 shot at Keeneland today?
Flavor said, on October 17, 2010 at 5:18 pm

Denny, just invert those national polls, those fuckers don’t have a clue about this team or this series. The only reason the Phillies are this TOTAL LOCK is because they have some name players. Names don’t win games, teams do………
zumarust said, on October 17, 2010 at 5:18 pm

C’mon, Torres. Catch fire tonight.
- delmardennis said, on October 17, 2010 at 5:22 pm
  
  Next AB. I hope. Boy, he sure was late on those fastballs.
delmardennis said, on October 17, 2010 at 5:20 pm

Giants own a 13-9 record in the NLCS. Won 9 of the last 11, including 3 straight, and 4 of the last 5 on the road.

I like those numbers. Pressure has to be on the Phillies tonight. They sure the hell don’t want to be staring at an 0-2 coming out west. Get our top of the order going, and keep theirs off, especially Victorino. He’s the only one who hurts Sanchez.

Go Giants! Score first, score often and WIN goddammit!
zumarust said, on October 17, 2010 at 5:20 pm

I like how Fox basically said tonight’s national anthem will be sung by a brass band.
zumarust said, on October 17, 2010 at 5:21 pm

Torres needs a bigger bat. He ought to walk up there with a telephone pole.
Ih1978 said, on October 17, 2010 at 5:21 pm

Torres looks like shit
zumarust said, on October 17, 2010 at 5:23 pm

Uh, no, Fox. Uribe has been crap for the last month. Rent is an upgrade at the moment.
Flavor said, on October 17, 2010 at 5:24 pm

Zoom– classic, lol. Doesn’t he look about 2 seconds late with that 37 ouncer?
- delmardennis said, on October 17, 2010 at 5:29 pm
  
  He’s been swinging like he just downed a 40 oz.
zumarust said, on October 17, 2010 at 5:26 pm

I really hope our offense gets going in this series. We have a World Series caliber pitching staff.
delmardennis said, on October 17, 2010 at 5:27 pm

Made fast work of Shane. Dirrrty throws strikes, we’re all good.
max808 said, on October 17, 2010 at 5:30 pm

I’ll take 4 runs again tonight. And I think they can score off of Ozwalt. Key is Sanchez. Keep em down early.
Kevin said, on October 17, 2010 at 5:30 pm

If the throw was down, I think they get him
delmardennis said, on October 17, 2010 at 5:31 pm

Phils obviously taking one until Sanchee throws strike 1. Need to pound the zone early and get ahead in the count.
delmardennis said, on October 17, 2010 at 5:34 pm

I’ve seen enough of Font. I want my Orson back.
- zumarust said, on October 17, 2010 at 5:46 pm
  
  All things considered- it could have been worst.
Kevin said, on October 17, 2010 at 5:44 pm

Jeeze a Zito inning!!
Kevin said, on October 17, 2010 at 5:46 pm

Shit threw 2 1/2 innings worth of pitches
alleykat said, on October 17, 2010 at 5:49 pm

Damm 35 pitch inning OUCH! Lucky to keep it to one run. Mistakes besides wildness and Font error.Sanchez needed to pause and keep Utley from getting a walking start on that steal.
delmardennis said, on October 17, 2010 at 5:49 pm

Dirrrty got squeezed on that 3-1 pitch to Rollins. But goddamn, it’s perfectly clear that the Phils won’t swing until he throws strike 1. Walk the sumbitch up if ya have to, but get strike 1.

Rollins was 1-16 vs Dirrrty with NO Walks, or NO Whitey for that matter. Let’s get that run back.
PawlieKokonuts said, on October 17, 2010 at 5:52 pm

Let’s hope Oswalt Zitos the inning and Posey postulates a penchant for salubrious slugging and Ross codifies crisp climactic celebration.
- delmardennis said, on October 17, 2010 at 5:56 pm
  
  “Golly Mr. Pawlie. You use your tongue prettier than a $20 whore.”
  
  Thank you Mel Brooks.
delmardennis said, on October 17, 2010 at 5:55 pm

I mentioned this morning how windy it was when I watched the Falcons play the Eagles in Philly. Doesn’t look like it’s changed. That ball by Buster should have been routine, and Burrell’s ball got blown back in. We’re gonna need to pop a few tonight because we all know, “if we don’t homer, we don’t score.”
Macdog said, on October 17, 2010 at 5:59 pm

This ump seems to be making up the strike zone as he goes along.
snarkk said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:01 pm

Can we get a home plate ump that isn’t a POS at calling balls/strikes? That last pitch called strike 3 for Oswalt was LOWER than Sanchee’s called ball that walked in the run…
zumarust said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:03 pm

What a weird game so far.
ferrethead said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:03 pm

Excellent inning, Sanchez – way to come back & set ‘em down!!!
alleykat said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:05 pm

5 times better on the pitch count that inning..only 7,that will hopefully settle Dirty down.
alleykat said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:11 pm

Man Torres looks like shit up there.Totally overmatched and way late on the swing.Time to go with an Eckstein model bat.
snarkk said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:11 pm

Torres = automatic out for the post season. I swear, he should try to bunt every time, he’d probably pull one off for a hit, that’s better than what he’s doing. He looks clueless. He keeps swinging at that high shit off the plate, can’t handle it. And he’s better LHed…
zumarust said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:13 pm

Rowand will start game 3. That’s a lock.
- delmardennis said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:16 pm
  
  Book it!
- delmardennis said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:19 pm
  
  I guess move Ross up to lead off, and Rowand to 8th. Or 7th, I want to see Mr. Welles play Tuesday, so he should bat 8th, and Rowand 7th. Book it!
  - zumarust said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:20 pm
    
    None of that would be worse.
PawlieKokonuts said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:20 pm

Dirrrty deals werthily.

I was hoping Ross would be leadoff tonight.
zumarust said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:21 pm

Sanchy is hanging tough. If not for the Font error and a couple of weird homeplate ump calls, he’d still have a shutout.
delmardennis said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:22 pm

Hey, Bozo. Can ya believe that Roy Oswalt is pitching a no-hit, no-run game thus far? I said that’s NO runs or NO hits or NO Whitey.
alleykat said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:24 pm

Dennis my guess is Orson won’t start against Hamels the lefty.If Uribe can go he’ll play 3rd with Rent at SS.Rohand will start for Torres for sure though.
zumarust said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:25 pm

No jinx so far from Buck and McCarver.
max808 said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:28 pm

Fontenot impersonating Brooks Conrad tonight?
xootsuit said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:30 pm

Brooks would’ve touched the ball and then dropped it.
I’m ready for Rowand in CF and Pablo at 3B.
delmardennis said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:30 pm

Put the fat guy in NOW! Fuck the little, little runt. There’s NO excuse for that shit.
But again, I’ve said this a million times, WTF can’t the pitcher take that ball? He has the best angle, stoopid fucking baseball unwritten rule. Catch the goddamn ball.
Kevin said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:31 pm

McCarver is fucking up you can read Sanchez lips he is calling fontenot name
snarkk said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:31 pm

Can somebody catch a damn pop, and throw somebody out from third. WTF is going on here, when it takes a damn act of Congress or a home run for the Giants to score?…
snarkk said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:35 pm

Sheezus!. Nice shorthop pickup by Huff…
delmardennis said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:35 pm

Seriously, who came up with the bright idea to tell the pitcher to get outta the way of all popups in the first place? I’d like to tie that asshole up in a pillory and pound him with all the balls that have landed on account of his stoopid fucking idea. Moron.

Let the pitcher catch the goddamn ball!
PawlieKokonuts said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:37 pm

here’s how wretched the HP ump is: did you see OSWALT WALK AWAY KNOWING IT WAS STRIKE 3 — just as Dirrrty knew it too? !
zumarust said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:39 pm

Wow. Mercy.
delmardennis said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:39 pm

Both Oswalt and Sanchez thought that was strike 3. Fuck Dan Iassogna. He’s just as bad or if not worse than last night’s asshole, Cousins. The balls and strikes calls have been nothing short of an embarrassment.
snarkk said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:40 pm

Howinhell does this moron ump and last night Cousins make the NLCS? They can’t call a damn strike if it bites ’em on the ass. When you call a ball, as the pitcher walks off and the batter starts walking into his dugout, you know you are calling a POS game…
alleykat said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:41 pm

Jesus Christ both Oswalt and Sanchez were walking away on a certain strike 3.But NOOOOOOOOOOO,this POS UMP is fucking with us.
delmardennis said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:42 pm

Are the postseason umps picked by a committee, or did they earn the highest grades from the reg. season. How are they selected?

Oswalt still has a NO-NO going.
- ferrethead said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:44 pm
  
  Good job, Dennis!
ferrethead said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:44 pm

Oh man, now i’m gonna have to have sex with the gnome…what a stud!!!!!!!!
max808 said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:44 pm

unfucking rEAL
delmardennis said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:44 pm

Cody! ! ! He did it again. With a little help from me with the NO-NO reverse jinx. 😀
Kevin said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:44 pm

Cody, Cody, Cody
zumarust said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:44 pm

Babe Ross, indeed!!!
Flavor said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:45 pm

Bring me Cody ross(ez) vagina!!!!!!
alleykat said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:46 pm

YEAH THE BABE DELIEVERS AGAIN AND BREAKS UP ANOTHER NO HITTER.Cody you are GOD!!!! This will spark them to another Victory!!!
PawlieKokonuts said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:47 pm

Freakin’ feckless FOX [aka GOP Fux] casually chattin’ it up w/ Greg Gross as if there’s no game going on and Ross wallops a homer. Fox equals everything wrong about baseball announcing, baseball, politics, media, balamce, and fairness. Fux.
Kevin said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:47 pm

Broke Oswalts concentration
Flavor said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:49 pm

25-1 2 nights in a row. Only the pitchers had worse odds
max808 said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:51 pm

After Atlanta, we all should have been pounding that one.
snarkk said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:53 pm

Cody makin’ a pretty good case for Sabes to sign him. Maybe it would be a good idea for somebody to get on base in front of him….
max808 said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:53 pm

Cody’s postseason slg % now 1.111
snarkk said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:54 pm

I turned FOX off the mute briefly. Jobuck says Bochy has advised that Rent has a totally torn left bicep? Has ANYBODY heard this before? WTF?….
alleykat said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:56 pm

Oh nice work by POS Joe Fuck…..Keeps rambling on to the Philly hitting coach,and doesn’t even react to Cody’s HR until he was past 2nd base.Call the game right you stupid dipshit.
snarkk said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:58 pm

With one out and you gotta get a grounder or a K, why is Dirrtty throwing a belt high fastball on first pitch with the infield in? I don’t get that…
zumarust said, on October 17, 2010 at 6:59 pm

A lot of things have gone wrong, and we’re only down 2-1. This game is highly winnable.
delmardennis said, on October 17, 2010 at 7:00 pm

Shit, that didn’t last long. Some great situational hitting there by the Phils. Wish we could do that, we stink at getting runners over or home from third w < 2 outs.

Victorino is without doubt my least favorite Philly. A pox on him and his house.
alleykat said, on October 17, 2010 at 7:02 pm

Agree Snarkk, not a wise decision there.Damn you sure want the shutdown inning after we scored,just didn’t get it.
zumarust said, on October 17, 2010 at 7:04 pm

Torres isn’t just playing himself out of the playoffs, I think his role with the team next season will be open to question now. The league is all over him now.
zumarust said, on October 17, 2010 at 7:05 pm

Huff is late on everything tonight.
delmardennis said, on October 17, 2010 at 7:05 pm

Bout time for the ROY to go yard, because “if we don’t homer, we don’t score.”
snarkk said, on October 17, 2010 at 7:10 pm

Torres suxxxx right now. Worthless at the plate. Dare I say Rohand would be no worse? Bochy needs to goose something or someone. Bunt for a hit, hit and run on an unexpected count, something. Everybody but Ross is hitting like they’ve got a hangover…
Kevin said, on October 17, 2010 at 7:13 pm

Yeah Torres looks lost at the plate right now. Is he taking his meds? Concentration level is a little low
alleykat said, on October 17, 2010 at 7:17 pm

Still think it’s crazy for Bochy to have so many relievers on the roster.Mota is definitely not needed.Down by a run ,it were sure make sense to have the speed guy for the late innings to PR…Velez or Ford.
snarkk said, on October 17, 2010 at 7:21 pm

This game is so winnable if the Giants could just get on top. Frustrating….
james said, on October 17, 2010 at 7:22 pm

Checking in from the … Flavr Lounge in Covina. Crummy D led to the only loss against Atlanta …
zumarust said, on October 17, 2010 at 7:23 pm

I don’t see the Giants starting Font again for a while. So, definitely a few new faces in game 3.
- delmardennis said, on October 17, 2010 at 7:30 pm
  
  There’s going to be 20,000 or so fans wearing those silly panda hats on Tuesday. Best give ’em something to cheer. Play the little fat guy. Shit, I hope Orson gets to PH tonight.
  
  SOB. Oswalt gets a goddamn hit. Why no dive from Torres? He didn’t try to steal last night. He is completely lost in every aspect of the game. If he’s still hurting from the surgery, sit ’em down. If it’s just a plain old slump, sit ’em down.
  
  C’mon pen. Shut these guys down. Give us a chance in the 8th. Maybe Oswalt running the bags will help us out.
