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……

Tortue, why do I love you so?

  I;m going to kill my son. He’s worse than me. Pacing, screaming, swearing. Very insightful, but goes a little nutty. Funny how weird it is to see what I looked like in the throes of a pressure packed situation.
zumiee said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:10 pm

I don’t get Ishi getting the green light at 3-0.
- pawliekokonuts said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:12 pm
  
  I thought the same. 3-0 used to be an auto-take. No more. He did move the runner to third. To no avail. Here we go. TENSE TENSE TENSE TENSE TENSE TENSE TENSE TENSE TENSE.
snarkk said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:10 pm

Like I said. Not disappointed with Blanco anymore. How many times has he rolled a grounder to the right side? A squeeze there would have been just as risky, or less, as having him hit away. I would have called for it. 4-2 is huge compared to 3-2…
- zumiee said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:13 pm
  
  ?? There were two outs.
  - snarkk said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:15 pm
    
    Yeah, I know. Blanco has been a near auto out swinging away. I would have dropped the bunt for a hit there. All or nothing…

om…… om……. om……. om……
snarkk said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:12 pm

Well, I would have kept Romo in. He was nails, and keep Casilla’s powder dry.
But, that’s why Bochy earns the big buxxx…

snarkk said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:13 pm

I’ve got the Laprhoaig Scotch out.
This is time for the serious shit…
Alleykat said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:13 pm

Ok 3 to go .. Check
Casilla coming .. Check
A lefty warming up to face Harper.. Uh probably no check
Oh Fuck it ,lets win this game now!!!
unca_chuck said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:14 pm

Tom, hate to disagree but I’m happy to see Casilla.
blade3colorado said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:14 pm

Not certain you guys got the same announcers that just said how we got our runs. Hilarious, especially since none of the runs came from hits. lqtm.
unca_chuck said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:15 pm

Lordy lordy lordy.
unca_chuck said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:15 pm

8 hits, 0 RBIs?
unca_chuck said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:16 pm

Hooooooooooooooooowaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
blade3colorado said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:16 pm

My massage later today will be much more enjoyable if we win this series. By the by, grab some pine meat. LOL.
unca_chuck said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:16 pm

Cheapie there.
zumiee said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:16 pm

Nice call, ump!!!! 🙂
Macdog said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:16 pm

It’s down to Harper. This is great stuff.
unca_chuck said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:16 pm

That’s fucked up. But . . .
snarkk said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:17 pm

Alright. You pitch to Harper. Don’t put him on. He makes out, or homers, but don’t put him on to bring the winner to the plate…
blade3colorado said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:17 pm

Get this last MOFO Harper . . . pleeeeeeeeaaaaaassssssseeeeeeeee
salty said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:17 pm

Now get this lead wanker out!
snarkk said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:18 pm

I’m chewing on my toenails now…
SanDawg said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:21 pm

No complaints. Don’t give in there. Still, I can barely breathe right now.
blade3colorado said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:22 pm

Not disappointed in the walk. Harper was bad mojo and even Casilla didn’t want anything to do with him.
unca_chuck said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:22 pm

;oiuadhf;ogiuh good God . .. .

How the fuck these guys do it, I dunno.
But, they get it done.

snarkk said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:27 pm

Very cool watching Bochy congratulate Hudson and Peavy…
blade3colorado said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:27 pm

I want another World Series, but this is almost as good. Giants advance and Dodgers play golf (or WTF they do in the offseason every year). Very satisfying feeling right now.
paulinasia said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:28 pm

F-yeah, FU
- blade3colorado said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:33 pm
  
  Paul, what are you up to now? Send me a message via YM.

these guys are just something, and they are our Something Giants
gianthead said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:30 pm

How bout them Giannnnntssss????
twinfan1 said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:32 pm

Having nothing to do with Harper was smart pitching with Ramos due up next. IMO.
- blade3colorado said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:34 pm
  
  Agree Mike (as I stated earlier). No problem with him walking.
  - twinfan1 said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:39 pm
    
    Didn’t see your comment, didn’t see any of them, Just shot from the hip.
- salty said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:36 pm
  
  Yeah, did make sense.
- twinfan1 said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:37 pm
  
  Vogey? Great postseason pitcher. I think I’ll stop DFAing him
Alleykat said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:33 pm

Geez ho hum,another “Champagne Party” coming up for ” The Best team in Baseball in October!”
Nice to do this round at home for the fans, and especially “The Flap”family and for sure the man, BF,who keeps the dream going among all of us!!!’
stickman said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:33 pm

Yeeeeeha! In like Flynn. Do they respect us now after we copped the Wild Card and now aced out the winningest regular season team in the league? Well, maybe not our oh, so clutch hitting and sometimes our baserunning ~ but Vogelsong and the bullies. Yessssss.

Seven game NLCS with St. Louis. Do you think we are just a tad in their heads? The two most successful NL teams of this decade face to face once again. Betcha our road warrior hitters sock em around under the Arch. Make like they are playing croquet.

How is the East Coast media gonna handle this one? First the LaBumbos bite the dust and now the Nats.
GiaNT STRIDES baby. GIANT ones. The Halloween Machine is once more on a roll.
stickman said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:35 pm

Now it’s time to shuffle those Cards. Cut that deck.
dirtnrocksnomo said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:35 pm

Man…awesome!

Humm baby!
snarkk said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:35 pm

I gotta believe Voggy benefited a lot from the long rest between starts. He was great tonite, clutch…
salty said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:37 pm

Pitching was phenomenal. Totally shit down Werth and Roach/who hit a combined .115
WilcoJoe said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:38 pm

Anyone know any good Dodger blogs we can go fuck with?
- Alleykat said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:47 pm
  
  Gold WJ I’ll keep you posted!!
snarkk said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:39 pm

Giants: 3 NLCS in 5 years and 2 rings. Damn good.
Cards 4 NLCS in 5 years. 1 ring. Damn good.
Maybe these two are meeting again because they’re the best organizations.
It’s not that hard to figure out…
snarkk said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:40 pm

Where’s the Phlaboxxl? Tail between his legs, where the Giants have a lot more between theirs…
stickman said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:40 pm

Betcha my dollar versus your dime that our vulturation winning pitcher catches some royal ribbing in the clubhouse tonight ~ or on the plane to Saint Looie. Too bad the W. could not have gone to Vogelsong for yet another gutsy clutch performance ~ surely one of his most memorable games.
DJLoo said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:41 pm

Game One is Saturday which means Bumgarner starts…
- salty said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:43 pm
  
  Purrrfect. And not using Peavy Thurs huge.
blade3colorado said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:42 pm

Enjoy your evening Flappers . . . 😁
Macdog said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:42 pm

Not the first time a playoff series was decided on a wild pitch:
paulinasia said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:42 pm

Really enjoyed just watching the video of Adams’ 3-run shot against Kershaw. REALLY enjoyed it. Ok, that’s the last Cards’ happy-ending reply I’ll gladly watch….
Alleykat said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:46 pm

And a 1 and a 2 and 3 and a hell of a lot more,,,Lets Go Giants,Let’s Go Giants, Let’s Go Giants,Let’s Go Giants,Let’s Go Giants, Lets Go Giants, Let’s Go Giants!!!!!!!!
Get the Goggles out again as the Party begins!!!
paulinasia said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:48 pm

And A-Kat… happily NOT Voggie’s last game as a Giant….. :-p
gianthead said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:54 pm

Going to be hard to fall asleep…how impressive that they have now set the NL record for most consecutive post-season series wins…that will stand for a long long time. Let’s add TWO MORE!!!
- DJLoo said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:58 pm
  
  A one game playoff is a series?
  Guess so.
  - unca_chuck said, on October 7, 2014 at 10:36 pm
    
    Yup, Just like a one-game hitting streak.
unca_chuck said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:57 pm

OOOOOOOOOOh Yeahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!
paulinasia said, on October 7, 2014 at 9:58 pm

The wildcard situation made it more interesting this year: 4 out of 6 division winners bounced in the first round while winning a total of only 2 games combined….. both @1 seeds, gone, 1 win combined… Party on, G’s… This Cardinals series will be intense.
unca_chuck said, on October 7, 2014 at 10:04 pm

Got pummelled with phone calls. I think the Nats look to be the toughest match-up we’ll face. I think we can take St Looie.

Pitch around Carpenter and take your chances with the rest.
- Alleykat said, on October 7, 2014 at 10:38 pm
  
  Screw St Louis Chuck .. We took em down last time we faced them.Doubt Matheny got any smarter then our own Master Obie Wan ( Bruce Bochy), no team and their always favorites,can handle this team of misfits. “As Boch says himself this team has the right DNA!”
  Doesn’t hurt to have the best manager in the game as well…
sportdude said, on October 7, 2014 at 10:04 pm

YES!!!!
Love it how much St Louis in Kershaws head. Same result for the next few years I hope!
Go Giants. Our older seasoned vets in our starting 4 get more rest, which helps, while there you guys get out of rhythm..Bet nice to kick ass on Lackey too!
unca_chuck said, on October 7, 2014 at 10:05 pm

LaRoche and Werth were what, 2 for 34 with 0 HRs and 0 RBIs?
Macdog said, on October 7, 2014 at 10:13 pm

Career playoff ERA:

Kerchoke 5.12

VogeyStrong 1.19
unca_chuck said, on October 7, 2014 at 10:33 pm

Kershaw’s now 1-6? Or 1-5 in posteseason play?

LOVE IT!!!!!

The Splash must be deserted without all those Dodger and A’s trolls.

\\Haaaaaaaaah!
