A Place To Talk About Giants Baseball

The Giants Can’t Hit. Reaaaallllyyyyy?

Posted in Uncategorized by Flavor on October 7, 2014

I was watching ESPN early this morning. They were showing highlights of the Dodgers losing again. After that, the talking heads got together and blathered out a theme of “the Giants look like they might be in trouble.” One of the guys said it with a sly looking smile on his face.

That’s really some great insight, Jerkoff. The Giants are in trouble? Why? Because they lost their first post season game in their last eleven? Actually, his reasoning was “The Nats look like they’ve finally got their pitching in order.”

Really? The Giants have scored 6 runs in this series. I think the Nats pitching has been “in order” since Game 1. Anyone with a brain knew the Giants were going to be run-challenged in this post season. The Giants can’t hit? Jimmy crack corn and they don’t care. Did Flavor really just drop a “Jimmy crack corn” on us? Fuckin’ right I did. I’ll throw any pitch at any time……

And I don’t need some ESPN dickhead in a suit telling me what the Giants shortcomings are. The team knows what they are better than anyone. It’s probably one of the things that fuels them.Because I guarantee you that the views of dipshit blowhards on tv go a long way towards motivating our players. And sometimes, that type of motivation can go a long way.

Gio Gonzalez is nobody’s big game pitcher. I’d take Voggy and his raggedy-ass arm over him any day. Sprinkle some nails over your Cheerios, dawg, and go get ’em……

    The obligatory Beach Blanket Babylon moment. 🙂

    Shouldn’t she remove her hat while singing “God Bless America?”

    Really? After yesterday’s Tony Bennett debacle, they try to recover with the fucking Beach Blanket Babylon thing?

  4. Alleykat's avatar Alleykat said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:31 pm

    Wow nice work on God Bless America.
    But now I need a neck adjustment.

  5. zumiee's avatar zumiee said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:34 pm

    Harper has to find new ways to be an even bigger dooosh-bag.

  6. snarkk's avatar snarkk said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:34 pm

    Blanco has stopped disappointing me. He is what he is, there is no reason to expect much offensively. When he does bunt, he telegraphs it, and makes a crappy bunt…

    • zumiee's avatar zumiee said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:35 pm

      I did a similar thing several weeks ago. James posted “Blanco is what he is,” and it finally sunk in to me.

  7. paulinasia's avatar paulinasia said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:34 pm

    Only one way we’re not talking about not having a lefty to pitch to Harper: win this f-ing game…

    • Alleykat's avatar Alleykat said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:40 pm

      Agree P/A
      Just as dumb with Williams letting the Lefty Thornton to pitch to Posey,
      WTF are these guys thinking sometimes?

    • Alleykat's avatar Alleykat said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:43 pm

      If Pablo ever wants a chance for a new contract this is his moment!

  8. DJLoo's avatar DJLoo said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:34 pm

    Time for Buster to get it done.

  9. Macdog's avatar Macdog said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:34 pm

    Cum on Buster!

  10. blade3colorado's avatar blade3colorado said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:34 pm

    She sucked. So much for trying to cultivate a more conservative SF image. 🙂

    • WilcoJoe's avatar WilcoJoe said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:37 pm

      I swear I could read Peavy’s lips in the dugout saying, “what the fuck is this?”

  11. blade3colorado's avatar blade3colorado said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:36 pm

    Chase this guy out of here.

  12. snarkk's avatar snarkk said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:37 pm

    The BBlanketBabylon producers must have photos of Larry Baer with animals…

  13. DJLoo's avatar DJLoo said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:37 pm

    I like the timing of this pitching change.
    Give hopped-up Hunter a chance to settle down and focus.

  14. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:38 pm

    Stats be damned. We need to cash in here!

  15. paulinasia's avatar paulinasia said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:38 pm

    Win this f-ing game, NOW….

  16. eddacker's avatar eddacker said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:40 pm

    usually I would be happy with Pablo on deck

  17. zumiee's avatar zumiee said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:41 pm

    Pence took a sweet 3-0 pitch right down the middle.

  18. Macdog's avatar Macdog said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:42 pm

    And here we go again.

  19. snarkk's avatar snarkk said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:42 pm

    OK, Panda time. Rookie pitcher. Can the Panda get a good pitch to hit?…

  20. Flavor's avatar Flavor said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:42 pm

    If he fucks this up again, the blog will not be pretty.

  21. DJLoo's avatar DJLoo said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:42 pm

    This AB could be worth an extra $40 million to the Panda…

    Godalfuckingmighty.

    Are you fucking kidding me?

  30. paulinasia's avatar paulinasia said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:45 pm

    You canNOT be serious….

  31. WilcoJoe's avatar WilcoJoe said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:46 pm

    He was out by a mile. fuck

  32. Alleykat's avatar Alleykat said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:46 pm

    Sure take that run, thanks Barrett!!

  33. Flavor's avatar Flavor said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:46 pm

    blocking the plate?

  34. salty's avatar salty said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:46 pm

    Interferrmce! Standing on the bleeping plate ferchrissakes!

  35. blade3colorado's avatar blade3colorado said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:47 pm

    I could care less how the runs come in . . . HR, base hit, field goal, touch down . . . Don’t care.

  36. DJLoo's avatar DJLoo said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:47 pm

    No matter what the fuckin’ rule is they ain’t overturning this.

    • zumiee's avatar zumiee said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:50 pm

      You’re right. Technically that was against the rules, but in this huge moment, they’re not going to call it that way.

  37. WilcoJoe's avatar WilcoJoe said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:47 pm

    New rule argument. He blocked the plate!

  38. blade3colorado's avatar blade3colorado said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:48 pm

    Looked like blocking the plate and didn’t this happen earlier this season? Too freaking inconsistent in this fucked up rule.

  39. WilcoJoe's avatar WilcoJoe said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:49 pm

    So the rule only applies to the catcher? Where is our in house counsel, Snarkk to give us an explanation?

  40. Alleykat's avatar Alleykat said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:50 pm

    Fuck, Twice Posey thrown out at the plate in this series, both bang bang plays,unbelievable on a WP IBB are you serious..

  41. snarkk's avatar snarkk said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:50 pm

    He clearly blocked the plate w/out the ball. But, they lack the balls to call it in an elimination game…

  42. paulinasia's avatar paulinasia said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:51 pm

    Wacky, wacky stuff….

  43. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:51 pm

    Was just telling the guys at the bar here….score a fucking run ANY WAY you can. Now come on bullpne!

  44. snarkk's avatar snarkk said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:51 pm

    Panda with the, the, the watching of the Wild Pitch!
    Yessssss!…

    • Macdog's avatar Macdog said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:53 pm

      Even more amazed he didn’t swing at it.

    • pawliekokonuts's avatar pawliekokonuts said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:53 pm

      that is pure gold

  45. paulinasia's avatar paulinasia said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:52 pm

    They really need to win this game, they’re running on thin luck and do NOT want to go back to DC… c’mon, ‘pen, just two more innings….

  46. Flavor's avatar Flavor said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:52 pm

    What a weirdo wild play. I mean, I don’t think I can even remember a pitcher fucking up a pitch like that before, at least not since high school……

  47. pawliekokonuts's avatar pawliekokonuts said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:52 pm

    I know I am biased, but that’s bullshit. Posey is safe under the Posey Rule. C’mon.

    • chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:57 pm

      I believe the rule on blocking the plate applies only to catchers..

  48. snarkk's avatar snarkk said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:52 pm

    It’s hard to blame Posey for running on that. So, I won’t,
    But, he’s so goddam slow, he should run only when the ball flies to the next county on a wild pitch…

    • salty's avatar salty said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:55 pm

      Thinking same

  49. zumiee's avatar zumiee said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:53 pm

    Well, we’re Giants fans. We know things hardly ever come easy. 🙂

    • eddacker's avatar eddacker said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:55 pm

      you know it don’t come easy

      • chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:57 pm

        Badfinger?

  50. snarkk's avatar snarkk said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:54 pm

    Giants just cannot get the cripple, clutch hit here. Ticks me off…

    • chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:58 pm

      They either lead the lead with hits/RISP or suck balls…

  51. Alleykat's avatar Alleykat said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:54 pm

    Where the fuck was the Camera replay on seeing Posey’s break for the plate, just curious if he broke late are what?

    • zumiee's avatar zumiee said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:56 pm

      Yeah, it would be great to see that.

    • DJLoo's avatar DJLoo said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:56 pm

      I was wondering that too, Kat. And the catcher made a tough throw with his back to the wall, too.

    • chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:01 pm

      I don’t give a rat’s ass. Just win bany!

  52. paulinasia's avatar paulinasia said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:58 pm

    Werth still scares me everytime up…..

    • zumiee's avatar zumiee said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:00 pm

      I hear ya. He’s got a ring from ’08; he’s been in big moments.

  53. paulinasia's avatar paulinasia said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:59 pm

    3 outs, baby….

  54. WilcoJoe's avatar WilcoJoe said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:59 pm

    Nice job Romo!

    • DJLoo's avatar DJLoo said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:00 pm

      Only 8 pitches. So tempting to send him out for the 9th…

  55. snarkk's avatar snarkk said, on October 7, 2014 at 8:59 pm

    Dang, Romo looked on a mission there. 9 pitches.
    Bring him in for the 9th, I say yeah….

  56. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:00 pm

    Fucking MONEY 8th by Sergio!

  57. Macdog's avatar Macdog said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:02 pm

    Pitcher’s spot due up.

  58. WilcoJoe's avatar WilcoJoe said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:02 pm

    I forgot the pitcher spot was up. Guess that negates that idea.

  59. stickman's avatar stickman said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:03 pm

    Three cheers for Romo: Hip, hip, hurray. Hip, hip, hurray. Hip, hip, hurrah.

    Crawford needs to put one in the Cove, that’d be nice…

    What in the wide wide world of sports is going on here? Holy fuckity fuck. This is the weirdest shit i have EVER seen.

  63. Alleykat's avatar Alleykat said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:04 pm

    Is this Matt V guy trying to be the next Joe Buck stuck in my craw?

  64. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:04 pm

    PLese drive in a couple runs. I can’t take another Harper AB with a one run lead.

    • paulinasia's avatar paulinasia said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:06 pm

      Agreed.

  65. WilcoJoe's avatar WilcoJoe said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:05 pm

    Alright Crawdad, nice start.

  66. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:05 pm

    Perez finally comes up in a useful time.

  67. snarkk's avatar snarkk said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:05 pm

    Crawford had a long stretch in the season where he was crap at the plate. I think he just hit the wall then. He’s been very solid the last few weeks in the field and at the plate…

  68. Alleykat's avatar Alleykat said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:06 pm

    Ok señor Perez with a nice bunt, let’s gey Crawdaddy home Ishikawa!!

  69. snarkk's avatar snarkk said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:07 pm

    Hey, Wild Pitch again. It worked before…

  70. blade3colorado's avatar blade3colorado said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:07 pm

    Need some insurance here. 3 -2 will put me in cardiac arrest come the 9th inning.

  71. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:07 pm

    I been running errands , hitting bars, and listening on the radio, and I just got home. Mqadness I tell you. One FUCKING RISAP HIT>

    • unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:08 pm

      You know what I mean. Come on Blanco.

    Suicide squeeze.
    Do it…

  73. Alleykat's avatar Alleykat said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:08 pm

    Ok with have Crawdaddy at 3rd, how about another wild play at the plate?

  74. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:08 pm

    Stop swinging for the fences!
