Beam Me Up (2-0), Scotty…..
……Cleveland fans continue to weep about NBA officiating on Twitter. Bottom line: the Warriors are just much better. Their pussy fans need to suck it up and accept that…..
This is a pretty big series with Arizona. I’ve been hearing about how badly the D-Backs are under performing this year. Time to see it with my own eyes. They have good players on that team. I’m not confident, especially without Belt…..
Draft Day! I don’t really care who they draft as long as it isn’t the high school kid Cole Winn. Take one of the college players. We need help as soon as possible.
There’s been a fun game running on twitter lately: Without revealing your age, what’s one thing you remember that a young person wouldn’t understand?
There are obviously a ton of answers. The first one that came to me: a water bed.
The 4D view they show of these plays afterwards are ridiculous. I wish they would get rid of it. It’s just a novelty. It’s like going to a 3D movie.
Agree. A new toy for the producer.
Flem is certainly gushing over it.
Krukow, too.
I read that 4D view adds algorithm-generated transition frames to smooth out the revolving view. So it’s not necessarily an accurate record of what happened. (Maybe that’s why the 4D show of Panik’s slide the other day suggested he was tagged out when other video views didn’t.) So it’s a fucking gimmick.
Wow! I didn’t realize that, but it makes sense and more important, yes, it wouldn’t be 100% accurate if it’s based upon an algorithm.
apparently they use 140 cameras and their software synthesizes it all almost instantly. Even entertaining AI is scary.
Nice AB!
Holy shit…great AB by Hanson!
I’m not missing, what’s that guy’s name, Flanco?…
They owe this Godley fuck some payback.
That fucker spit his gum out on the field as he was running off! Send his ass back out to retrieve it and put in the proper receptacle! WTF!
Godley gets creamed.
nice
Nice piece of hitting by Hanson,pitcher gave him too much of the plate 0-2 and he made him pay for 2 knocks!
Hanson fouled it off what, 127 times?
every nasty curve ball
Buster!
Boom! Kick in the doors….
Buster knows he better step it up now, haha.
Love the Hanson kid. Gotta find spots for him.
7-spot. That’ll work.
If I’m a GM, unless I have some really serious needs on the team, if there’s a potentially very good catcher available in the draft, I’m taking him. Someone’s always gonna need a good catcher at some point. Good pick.
Yeah, Zum and Mac, I know that Bautista’s nickname is Joey Bats. But I swear I recently heard it in a film or show. Driving me nuts…..
There was a Billy Batts in Goodfellas.
Now go home and get your fucking shinebox.
Buster hit a 410 foot double.
high drive too. How many other ballparks does that not clear a fence?
Um, not trying to hex anything, but Giants could be in first place by time DBax leave town.
Got a nice thrash going right now. Posey crushed that and he has real power to the opposite field, it just won’t go out at ATT given combo of night ball dimensions and the high wall.
I didn’t see the game last night, but it seems like the Giants are firing on all cylinders since that last game in Denver.
Damn, Aaron Judge with 8 K’s in today’s doubleheader – ML record.
the exit velocity of his whiffs exceeded 110 mph I’m sure
Lulz.
Blade,
Posey, Pence, Pagan
No Zum . . . Only Posey is correct.
Posey, Hicks, Parker
I’m going outside the box.
No, still wrong. Again, only Posey is right.
Paul, Burt Reynolds in The Crew, a movie about retired mobsters. I think Dan Hedaya was in it too.
Maybe that was it. Gonna stop thinking about it now, thinking just gives me a headache these days.
It actually wasn’t a bad movie.
I like Moronta. He busted Avila inside with 98 fastball at his hands then put him away with curve at bottom of zone. Clean inning after the big rally, well done.
King Fu you!
How the hell did he hit that out? LOL
Giants ain’t done with bombs tonite. wow that was way in on Pablo’s hands too.
Pablo power!
And now, time to start the conga line…
Posey, Panik, Williamson
Only Posey and Panik is correct . . . one more????
Was it Parker (who sucks)?
Gillaspie?
No
Was there more than one lunatic here who wanted Pablo back?
It’s taken awhile, but the rest of us have warmed up to his return.
With Boston paying a majority of his salary, absolutely. Roll the dice! I would say the Giants have got their money’s worth, already…
not me that’s for sure. I’d have dfa’d him last October. Making good things happen that’s for sure.
No Loo
Posey, Panik, Blanco
lol . . . no
Duffy?
No Zum
Has to be Posey Panik Culberson.
BTW. Culberson’s last 3 home runs have been walk-offs. First time in MLB history someone has hit 3 walk-off home runs in a row. Of his 8 home runs, 4 of them are walk-offs.
No Unca
Anyone else? We almost have a 25 man roster going here. lol
Another clue – April 4, 2016, Giants at Brewers and the pitcher was Ariel Pena.
Posey Panik Hicks?
No on Hicks.
I can’t remember who the back-up catcher was at the start of ’16.
Sanchez?
What is the question? I missed it.
Who are the last Giants to hit back to back to back bombs?
A RH hit for Panda…
yes impressive. I looked him up this morning I think he was at .118 vs. LHP 2 for 17.
One more clue. All of these players were STARTERS.
Morse?
No Willie.
Finally a big inning. Love it! Good move ph hansen for holland..
am car radio
The 3 P’s
Posey,Panik&Pence??
No AK . . . Loo’s pal Span was in the first slot.
Posey, Panik, Span?
Yes! Yes! Yes!
The Invisible Span was the final piece of the puzzle!
lulz . . . Yes, the Invisible Span.
Actually, the correct order is Span, Panik, and Posey (but a minor quibble).
Gearrin still not doing much for me…
Gearrin gives me time to pee between pitches atleast..
Spanning the globe 🌎 Wide World of Sports!!
A contract like Span’s became a cautionary tale for the young SABR-minded GMs.
Well, several of the Giants’ contracts. 🙂
Yes, that’s more accurate.

Did he take four or five strides between the mound and 1B? Pretty damned athletic for a long-legged mofo….
Bombs away, again!
Wow! Hundley too. Last season, we literally would wait weeks for a jack to go out of the park.
Disappointing to see so many fans left the game. They didn’t used to do that.
Giants fans used to party until the end in a blow-out. A lot of them just head out now.
Stomp the Snakes!
In this park, there should be a mercy rule for scores of 10-3.
“I’m Dianne Feinstein, and I want to be a 90 year old Senator.”
Yes and I endorse this commercial for Diane!!
That ghoul is going to be our only choice. Remember when she opened Pier 39 in a bathing suit?
I voted for her. Such is the state of politics these days.
Ballgame!
Back to .500 (again)!
the season really starts tomorrow? This team is full of surprise.
Even with Belt out, who had been their most productive plater, this team is showing it can persevere. If they get, and keep healthy, they will continue to make some noise. I am really digging this club. Humm Baby!
And the winning pitcher is . . . Pierce Johnson, who gets sent to Sac to make room for MadBum.
Why not Moronta?
