What a Day

Posted in Uncategorized by Flavor on October 28, 2010

There’s very little I can add to what I was part of last night. I’ve never been to anything like it. Sorry for the late post, I got home very late and had to wake up very early. I put 2 videos up below. Here’s a picture of me and Pawlie who i met before the game. Great guy.

The pitch to Renteria was the exactly the same one Burrel jumped back from and took for a ball, and which should have been called strike 3 in his last AB. It was not a “mistake.”

Kid Wilson pitched a good game,Out with the blister,the floodgates will open up against the over the hill Oliver!
San Dog said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:07 pm

Miller just busted off a fun fact that the first ever inter-league game played was Giants/Rangers and Darren Oliver was the starter. Giants won—game winning hit by Stan Javier.

UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

2-0 baby!
San Dog said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:08 pm

U-ribe and Rent GETTING IT DONE!

That’s the way we play
Yessir
delmardennis said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:10 pm

The ball Huff hit should have been the HP ump’s call. The ball never reached the bag.
It looked fair, but the 1B ump made the call. Worked out for us.
stixwiz said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:13 pm

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH
RRRRRRRRRReeeeeeBAAAAAAY
delmardennis said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:13 pm

And that was a great read by Ross and by Juan taking the extra base. Doing the little things tonight very well.
In a game like this it’s paramount to play smart ball. Horse going back out for the 8th, I like it.
Ride ’em home to the finish.
eddacker2 said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:15 pm

And Cain is thinking
Just another 2 run victory
He goes 9
delmardennis said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:21 pm

Jesus H. Christ. WTF is it with the 8th inning. I hate this inning. OK, Shitholtz makes the grab.

That was one helluva race run by our Big Horse. That sumbitch sure can run.
OK, here comes….LOOGY.
alleykat said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:22 pm

What a STUD Performance by Matt Cain!!!
James said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:23 pm

I hate that the idiot decision to run wasn’t punished.
- alleykat said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:27 pm
  
  Should have been if Rent was afraid to ketch the ball.
TedSpe said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:24 pm

Lopez. Gotta like that guy. Makes Gomez look like…Gomez
eddacker2 said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:26 pm

As a side note very manly crowd these Gfans r
stixwiz said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:29 pm

Classic confrontation between the Horse and the best hitter in the AL never happened. I like Bochy’s decision and i love Sabean’s squeezing that lil loogy outta Pittsburgh for Ironhead Joe and Bow-Wow. Hope both of em help the Pirates franchise, cause Lopez just drove another nail in the Texas-sized coffin. Three more outs to go and the big Horse comes home a winner.

  I’m not sure I understood one word of your post, stix
  - zumarust said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:37 pm
    
    Surely you remember the trade that got us the loogy!
  - TedSpe said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:48 pm
    
    Just being facetious, zum. A sorry attempt of humor
- TedSpe said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:35 pm
  
  I mean I *might* have. I’m just not sure
JBat said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:31 pm

I can’t believe Torres swung at that pitch. We need RUNS.
eddacker2 said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:32 pm

2 cool n fu Nat’l media
” Texas hitters have faced good pitchers these Giants got nothing”
Ha-ha
delmardennis said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:37 pm

From Baggs: The NY Times is reporting that Jose Guillen, left off Giants playoff roster, is under investigation for receiving shipments of HGH.

Could have fooled me by his play here. Unless of course if HGH means “hit grounders haplessly.”
TedSpe said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:38 pm

FOX Asshole 1: I have a daughter. So I’m well aware of Justin Beiber
FOX Asshole 2: But…isn’t she 38?
blade3colorado said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:41 pm

I’m visualizing a grand slam for the Huffster . . . Think hard everyone.
Kevin said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:41 pm

This kid is straight up nervous!! you can see it in his face!!
blade3colorado said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:43 pm

Gonna walk a run in. This guy reminds me of the Rockies bullpen for most of the 90s and early 2000s.
- TedSpe said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:47 pm
  
  That’s just plain mean, blade
TedSpe said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:44 pm

Well well well
eddacker2 said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:44 pm

To all you fans in Tx
Be still my friends
JBat said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:46 pm

Does anyone know what is going on with that section of green seats in the upper deck in LF? It looks like no one is sitting there.
- delmardennis said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:48 pm
  
  It’s for the media. Has been all throughout the postseason.
delmardennis said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:47 pm

Ball 12. If I had a heart, I should feel sorry for ’em. But I don’t. You suck!

C’mon Juan-Gone!
eddacker2 said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:47 pm

BTW media assholes
Tx np is as good as any
alleykat said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:48 pm

Wild Thing…You make my Heart Sing.You make everthing groovy come on come come on Wild Thing!!
blade3colorado said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:48 pm

Make it 6 Juan.
TedSpe said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:49 pm

Oh, this could be interesting
TedSpe said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:50 pm

HOLY SHIT
blade3colorado said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:51 pm

That just DESTROYED the confidence of their pitching staff . . . and the position players faith in same.
delmardennis said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:51 pm

Keep a walking this way. I love it. OK, sit B-Wheezy down. Non-save situation. Give Mota some work.
Kevin said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:51 pm

This just got ugly for Texas
James said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:52 pm

Those highly disciplined Giants doing their thing.
stixwiz said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:52 pm

Giants baseball = TORTURE. That delicious Texas BP is finding out all about it. Wonder if they miss Chris Ray.
blade3colorado said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:52 pm

Ted, I’ve seen this happen to the OLD hapless Rockies staff MANY, MANY times.
- TedSpe said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:53 pm
  
  I believe ya
TedSpe said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:52 pm

These Giants are made for walking, and that’s just what they’re gonna do…

Who would have thought this from our so called hackers
alleykat said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:52 pm

GM John Daniels,is looking for a bottle of Jack Daniels about now!
blade3colorado said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:54 pm

ROUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TedSpe said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:54 pm

HOLY FUCKING SHIT!!! RENT!!
James said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:55 pm

Pour it on!
delmardennis said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:55 pm

How bout Mr. Renteria. Hee-Haw! The Rangers are demoralized. They are dead.
- TedSpe said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:56 pm
  
  But not…the walking dead
- TedSpe said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:57 pm
  
  …except their pitchers
blade3colorado said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:56 pm

Gee, no kidding Buck . . . I wonder how much brain power Buck had to use to come up with, “Well, that’s it for Lowe.”
- TedSpe said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:58 pm
  
  Daiyyyyyyyuuuuuuh YUP
JBat said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:56 pm

Dennis, thanks. RENT! What a great game! All that post season experience is really paying off now!

I AM LOVING THIS!
alleykat said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:56 pm

Unbelievable all with 2 outs and nothin happening.They Blow it open!!!
JBat said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:58 pm

I feel a lot more relaxed now than I did 15 minutes ago. 😀 We have been killing it with the two out hits!
blade3colorado said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:58 pm

Not certain Buck or McCarver said, “Well, that’s it for Lowe,” but these guys sure have a talent for stating the obvious.
stixwiz said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:58 pm

“Walk on by, aye, aye, walk on by”. Can’t even remember the name of the group or singer ~ Motown kinda sound. Seems like Lowe got tired of that approach so he put a pitch where RentMan could do some more hurtin on em. Mistake. So is Edgar upping for co-POTG with the Horse, or what?
- TedSpe said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:00 pm
  
  Motown? Please. Fucking Dionne Warwicke by Burt Bacharacharacharach
James said, on October 28, 2010 at 7:59 pm

I am bummed that Torres swung at ball 4 twice to lead off.
- unca_chuck said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:01 pm
  
  8 run lead, game 2 in the bag, and thats what you got?
unca_chuck said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:00 pm

Wow. This is disheartening for Tejas. Let’s just hope

Row ROW!!! Welcome to the postseason!!!!
San Dog said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:00 pm

Would it be too much to ask for the Orange and Black to go ahead and complete the sweep this weekend????? I have to chaperon a college tour field trip Monday-Wednesday. I committed to it several months ago. (Call me a shitty fan, but I didn’t think to check if the dates conflicted with the Giants playing in The World Fucking Series). It’s gonna suck balls if the Giants close this out in 5 or 6 and, after listening to or watching about 170 games this year I’m stuck in a financial aid presentation at Cal Poly Pomona when the moment I’ve dreamed about since 1971 finally comes down.

Good for Rowand!!!!
- blade3colorado said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:02 pm
  
  Hey San Dog, looks like you are going to win a pc if this keeps up 🙂
  - San Dog said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:05 pm
    
    I would like to see my record in these contests. I’ve got a first, two or three runner-ups, and my Pinnacle 7 looks like it’s gonna hit the fucking flagstick on this one. And I flaked on entering the last one!!
JBat said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:00 pm

Rowand!!!!! This is UN-FUCKING-BELIEVABLE!!!!! GO GIANTS!!!!!
James said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:00 pm

Now I’m really pissed Torres K’ed!
freshtodef80 said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:00 pm

Rowand!!
blade3colorado said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:00 pm

I had no idea that winning a World Series was going to be this easy????

Someone pinch me.
stixwiz said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:01 pm

“It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas” for the Halloween Machine. Big question now is can they take this game to Arlington and nail er down by Halloween? Why play baseball in November? Might as well get it all done in this wonderful Orange and Black October.
Kevin said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:01 pm

Well now my 18 runs that I said the Giants would score for the whole Series looks pathetic!!
alleykat said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:01 pm

Holy Shit !!! Even Rohand joins the Party!!!! I hope this lead is big enough to throw Mota a bone!!
TedSpe said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:02 pm

My guess is, even Dennis is no longer watching this game from his ledge. The guy that makes the 3rd out this inning is gonna get a thong wedgy from the rest of the team…all in good fun
TedSpe said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:03 pm

This is merciless. They should let Brian Wilson finish this inning for the Rangers.
It’s the humane thing to do.
snarkk said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:03 pm

Rohand gets a two run triple in the fuckin’ World Series?!!! DO NOT FUCKIN PINCH ME!!!!!! Woo HOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
willied said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:03 pm

Man second night in a row I get in late innings and SF explodes for more, led by the unlikely ones. How did Texas PS ever whip the Yankees?

And where’s Aretha?
unca_chuck said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:04 pm

I got 24 . . .
JBat said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:05 pm

Kevin, LOL! My 20 run prediction was annihilated in 2 damn games! GOOD!
twinfan said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:05 pm

Rent and Rowand, how fucking sweet for those two…..
uh, about half a dozen of you are already out of the contest…
blade3colorado said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:05 pm

This is starting to make up for 1962, 1989, 2002, Dodgers winning championships, A’s winning championships, etc., etc.
- San Dog said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:13 pm
  
  …Neifi Perez, Jose Oquendo, Jose Cruz Jr, Bob Robertson….
JBat said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:06 pm

And how about Cain?! Jesus, the guy is just dialed in right now, and dominated a great lineup. The only real hard hit ball was Kinsler’s, and the baseball gods smiled on that one!

GO GIANTS!!!
stixwiz said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:06 pm

“Row, Row, row your boat
all around the Bay
And Torres hadta get into the act
Just to make his day”.

Three cheers for the best little bullpen in Texas:
Hip, hip, hurray. Hip, hip, hurray. Hip, hip, hurray.
alleykat said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:06 pm

The Giants are winning with pitching but not there’s Says Mc Crapper?WTF are you talking about this time.Fucking Cain shut them out tonight you fucking idiot!!
TedSpe said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:07 pm

Hush hush hush…wait a minute…
I think I heard the fat lady
snarkk said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:07 pm

The Scotch is flowin’ now, baby!!

Give me the damn ball, I’LL pitch with a nine run lead….
- blade3colorado said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:09 pm
  
  and we would allow you to Snarkk.
- alleykat said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:11 pm
  
  Yeah some single malt Glenmorangie sounds good to me right now Snarkk!!!
stixwiz said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:08 pm

This ain’t a rout. It’s a schtonk!

Maybe Righetti will pitch the 9th?
blade3colorado said, on October 28, 2010 at 8:08 pm

I know I am going to wake up any minute now and be so depressed that it was only a dream.
