Engage Operation EYB
I loved last night’s game. Even the strikeouts. As the game wore on it became a game to watch within the game. Good thing I wasn’t playing a drinking game. All those k’s would have sent me to the ER. And who doesn’t enjoy a walk off? There are critics of the wild card format but I’m not one of them. An instant Game 7 to kick off the post season? That is fantastic. And if the WC teams or the fans grouse about only getting one game here’s an idea: win your damn division.
My A’s fan buddy, The Boney One, texted me at 4:32am today looking for my prediction on the game tonight. I just texted back “excitement” and left it at that. It’s the bare minimum of what we all get today and into tonight.
Even if they lose, I’m pretty content just getting to this game. How did the worst team in baseball make the post season? Think about that. And it’s not even arguable, with stats or your own eyeballs, that we weren’t the worst team in all of mlb in the second half of the season.
But here we are. I’m down with a crazy 3 week run. I don’t expect it but I also didn’t expect the 2014 flag and that’s flying like a boss right now.
So whatever, no expectations. But I’m confident because of who’s taking the hill. Excitement is definitely in the air. On the east side of the Dumbarton Bridge there are salt ponds. Savy locals know when it’s time to roll up the window. I hope NY fans know what’s up but there’s only so much they can do to withstand the EYB that’s wafting towards Citi Field right now. It’s coming and it’s even and it’s bullshit and so far (engage knowing dude head nod) no one has been able to stop it……
Representing……

And suddenly it’s 2010 all over again. Torture redux….
Game face will get the job done!

and he hits one to the track.
Holy shit! Wow…I said something earlier about a “fringe” player playing a big part…
Instant classic!!!
EYB…..
What did DelMar Dennis always say about bringing in a closer in a tie game…?
Conor Conor Conor!!!!!

Giddy. Up.
Has to be a dinger!!!! Yeah Baby! Now bum needs to shit this puppy down!!!
Or shut!!
Talk about some huge hits the past week. Wow!
These little town blues…
Listen how quiet the ESPN announcers got. Fuck them!
No shit, Wilco…I was just thinking that brother!
Agreed.
Yeah, ruined their dream match-up.
I saw Familia implode against the Nats early in the season, at Citi Field, and I was hoping…
That park is like a tomb right now, but it ain’t over. Get it done, Bum!
Shut em down and shut em up.
Cespedes swings at 2-0, thank you very much.
Can’t wait to hear the radio call of the blast.
A little “Say Hey”…Pence running outta his hat…
Draculoo bring the win home!!!!
Fucking Conor Gilaspie will go down in Giants laurels up there with Travis and Renteria! What a unforgettable moment!!!!
Abso-fucking-lutely!
On the Giants’ main MLB page, Chris Haft posted a game-time story about Gillaspie making “great strides” filling in at 3rd. Nice call.
Sweet…gotta read that one…
Before last night’s game, the road team was 6-2 in wild card games. If the G’s hang on, it’ll be 7-3 and 2-0 for the Giants!
Pitching, defense, and the 3-run homerun. I loved Earl Weaver…
Nice 119-pitch shutout.
DJLoo is my idol.
Face of the Franchise.
Hope he makes it home safely.
Just Win!
Mr. “Batting gloves? I don’t need no stinking batting gloves” Gillaspie goes YARD BABY!!! AND THE GIANTS WIN!! THE GIANTS WIN!! THE GIANTS WIN!!
Way to bring it home, DracuLOO!
Ball fucking game!
Chicago Bound as Jimmy Rogers said!
Bum CONTINUES to bring LEGENDARY SHIT!
Loo will be loving the walk from the park! Fuck yeah!
Loo brought it home.
This team amazes me….Draculoo sucked the life out of them….
The Curve of Bobby Jones finally avenged!
Way to go MadBum!
Way to go Gillaspie!
Way to go DJLoo!
Way to go Giants!
Bring on the Cubbies!
The Curse…
Time to crack more champagne!!!
Love it!!!🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾😀🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾😀🍾🍾🍾
Lucky Loo comes thru!
Yeah, Zumiee….
While it is not one of my favorite post-season shirts…I am going to go dig up my 2014 “We Own October” shirt, and rocking that motherfucker LOUD AND PROUD tomorrow, boys!
Bring on the fucking cubbies!
What a whacky, crazy, unbelievable season so far. Wow.
Wow what does that make his ERA now?
I wore my 2014 WS Bum jersey all day!!
Think Conor gets a game baseball along with Bum???
I LOVE the hug between Bum and Posey after the final out…just so understated…mad respect by both…
FUCKING A! WHOOP!
And the tears in Gillaspie’s eyes…
I’m not calling a win over the Cubs but we are going to win one of the first two and think we steal Game 1 with Cueto!!!
The announcers were as quiet as the crowd. Yeah baby!!!!!
The cubbies just felt a little tightening of their collective shpincters.
I like our chances now.
“There’s a hush…… all over the world… tonight”… that low exhaling sound coming out of the mouths of Cubs, Nats, and Dodgers, saying quietly “oh fuck…. here they come”….
Bum has gigantic balls…
Globe sized
How can one list the top 10 Giants moments in just the last 7 years but this is right up there…4×7 baby!!! Rally Stix! Death by Draculoo!!!
Yah, a couple of big ol’ hairy southern crab apples.
Thought Bum was gonna deck Buster Olney, for his stupid questions..
“Why you gotta ask me all these hard questions.” That was great!
Yeah right WJ,
That was great!!
What he wanted to say was, “Why you gotta ask me all these stupid questions.”
HERE WE COME!
Just Win…
We Came to Reign, I want one of those shirts!!
It’s just amazing what this team has gifted us since 2010.
yes it is.
Frickin’ weird going through all 250 channels I have in my Vietnamese apartment and no baseball. Catch ESPN Gamecast and it is almost like being there (coupled with chatting with Paul on Messenger). Just watching dots. HAHAHA. The “G” bomb was unfuckingbeiievable. Wow!
Hate to say it Blade but the Mets won!!
Oh in Vietnam only!!!!
“It’s a different time of year, and anything can happen in October.” Madison Bumgarner…
Second half? What second half?…
I never gave up and said continuously, get in, and anything can happen…
I love it. All thru the game, the main MLB page kept showing Thor, and no-no thru 6, etc. Finally they had to change it to…. MadBum, game over. Unfuckingbelievable. Here we come.
How can one list the top 10 Giants moments in just the last 7 years but this is right up there…4×7 baby!!! Rally Stix! Death by Draculoo!!!
That was a great Nuschler Will Clark gameface from Conor after that bomb,damm decent emotion came out on that historic HR, and from a guy who wouldn’t even have started if Nunez was healthy! It was meant to be!!
EYB at its finest, Kat!
Yeah no shit Chi.. EYB
God I want to rip the Cubs a new one to keep their 110 years + of frustration to continue and yes everyone will be on their bandwagon!!
I say we recruit Steve Bartman and put him in a Giants uni just to fuck with them more!!!
Regardless of what happens over the next few weeks, the past 6 years have been as good as it gets as a baseball fan. I’d be hard-pressed to find a fan of any other franchise who’s had a better run, even fans of the Yankees. All the drama, the success, the toughness, the never-say-die fortitude.
A week ago the Rockies won and it wasn’t looking too good. Then this.
Enough of that ESPN bullshit…I had to flip to CSNBA…Flan and Richie…
djloo you beautiful motherfucker I am going to kiss you.
Woop!
Did we just put doubt and worry in some teams minds?
