A Place To Talk About Giants Baseball

Bum Taketh, 1.0 Giveth

Posted in Uncategorized by Flavor on September 5, 2019

Bum basically gave up 2 big leads yesterday. A four run lead and a 3 run lead. I know Gustave technically gave up the actual 2nd lead but he was only in there because Bum couldn’t shut the door after he was gifted ANOTHER big lead. At that point I figured we were done—even basically waved the white flag to Daniel on twitter….

And then like he’s done for most of the year, sans fanfare or accolades from most in the Giants community, our trusty 1.0 stepped to the plate and delivered.

A fun win that keeps our 0.1% post season hopes alive.

lqtm….

    No doubter on that one. Damn.

    45 pitches in 2 innings = 0 runs. 5 LOB.

    Opie will throw 45 more pitches and finish the game.

    Fuck. 5 hits, 2 walks in 3 innings, and zip. Thank God Posey erased all those LOB guys.,

  4. djloo27's avatar djloo27 said, on September 6, 2019 at 8:12 pm

    Posey should change his number to 643…

    • chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on September 6, 2019 at 9:21 pm

      😂 Posey can get doubled-up with no runners on…

    Dubon! STuD!

    Du-bomb!

    I have a good feeling about that kid going forward. Most athletic infielder we have had in quite some time and for a 160 pounder, the dude has some power.

    • chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on September 6, 2019 at 9:23 pm

      Agree! I like the kid a lot, too! I was reading an article on him, and it was said that he is equally good at 2nd and SS (major league tools…not just a utility guy).

    Dubon &Davis should both be starting the rest of the way, but we all know that won’t happen under the Boch watch..

    • blade3colorado's avatar blade3colorado said, on September 6, 2019 at 8:43 pm

      Yeah AK, just those 2 guys give me a good feeling about next season. Couple that with all the stopgap moves that Mr. Z made this season (Pillar, Yaz, Solano, Dick, etc.), I’m fairly well convinced that the off season wont be a yawn fest . . . and just maybe, we’ll actually be competitive during the entire 2020 season. Regardless, I’m definitely not bored like I have been before Z came on board.

      • alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 said, on September 6, 2019 at 8:49 pm

        Yeah that’s for sure Blade, Zman has no problem making decisions on players, up/down all year looking for combinations after his shaky start with Conor Joe/Reed,Krispy Kratz etc..
        Then he just pulled off the major heist of Dubon&Davis at the deadline for are floating turds 💩 the guy is constantly thinking ahead!!

      • chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on September 6, 2019 at 9:24 pm

        Agree, Steve. I am liking the direction under Z.

    • blade3colorado's avatar blade3colorado said, on September 6, 2019 at 8:51 pm

      Which by the by, Melanoma gave up another bomb last night. lqtm

  9. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on September 6, 2019 at 8:42 pm

    Nice AB by the kid. He’s a steal. We should have 4 runs. Good news is we’ll get to the Dog pen.

  10. blade3colorado's avatar blade3colorado said, on September 6, 2019 at 9:00 pm

    Woo Hoo! Yaz comes through big time!

  11. blade3colorado's avatar blade3colorado said, on September 6, 2019 at 9:04 pm

    Where’s Rooster???

    • chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on September 6, 2019 at 9:25 pm

      😂 LMAO…

  12. blade3colorado's avatar blade3colorado said, on September 6, 2019 at 9:38 pm

    Damn. Solano should have had that. Right in his glove. We’re still in control. Smarg pitched great.

  13. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on September 6, 2019 at 9:53 pm

    That pitch for the k looked like a damned softball riser pitch…

  14. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on September 6, 2019 at 9:54 pm

    We’re in Mr. Rogers neighborhood. Crazy ass pitches there.

  15. zumiee's avatar zumiee said, on September 6, 2019 at 9:55 pm

    Our gimmick pitcher did very well tonight.

    • chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on September 6, 2019 at 10:10 pm

      Gimmick or not. Just not many submariners in the game. I like the kid’s stuff.

  16. zumiee's avatar zumiee said, on September 6, 2019 at 10:03 pm

    Abad? Really? OK….

    • zumiee's avatar zumiee said, on September 6, 2019 at 10:10 pm

      He did well!

    • blade3colorado's avatar blade3colorado said, on September 6, 2019 at 10:19 pm

      That’s some funny shit, and moreover, Brown’s lucky that Gruden was amused by him recording him without his knowledge . . . Gruden could have had him arrested for not appraising him that their phone call was being recorded. AB is an idiot. .

    • chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on September 6, 2019 at 10:24 pm

      Moron…

  17. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on September 6, 2019 at 10:12 pm

    Two pitchers and five pitches to close out the bums in the 8th…nice pitching…

  18. blade3colorado's avatar blade3colorado said, on September 6, 2019 at 10:12 pm

    Just watch . . . We’ll win this game and tomorrow, Bochy will insert the other 2/3s of the “core.” You just knew that Garcia would get his measly one at bat and like a heroin addict, Bochy replaces him with Belt.

    • chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on September 6, 2019 at 10:15 pm

      Let the River Cats play! 😂

  19. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on September 6, 2019 at 10:24 pm

    Oh dear. 3 solos for Pollock.

    • chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on September 6, 2019 at 10:25 pm

      He is the new Giant killer…

    • zumiee's avatar zumiee said, on September 6, 2019 at 10:25 pm

      Off 3 fastballs down the middle.

  20. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on September 6, 2019 at 10:28 pm

    Smith just really fucking sucks of late…

    • blade3colorado's avatar blade3colorado said, on September 6, 2019 at 10:37 pm

      Yep, but so do the Dodgers. lol

  21. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on September 6, 2019 at 10:28 pm

    Jesus. Smith be shaky.

  22. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on September 6, 2019 at 10:28 pm

    i have a bad feeling about this . . .

  23. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on September 6, 2019 at 10:29 pm

    You walk Russell Martin??? He’s like 47.

    BEAT L.A.!

  25. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on September 6, 2019 at 10:33 pm

    Fucking Jon Miller just stole my words…it wasn’t easy. Beat LA!

  26. blade3colorado's avatar blade3colorado said, on September 6, 2019 at 10:33 pm

    Big deal. They make a quasi comeback against a Will Smith, whom is running on fumes and has been for the last month or so.

    Despite that bomb, I have no idea how this very vulnerable Dodger team gets back to the World Series, much less, wins it all. Kershaw looks very mortal. He goes 4 innings, 3 earned runs and allows 7 hits. That shit wont cut it in the playoffs.

    Go Giants!

    . . . and kick their ass again tomorrow.

    • blade3colorado's avatar blade3colorado said, on September 6, 2019 at 10:35 pm

      Oh! One other thing . . . Where’s fucking Clint!

    That Fucking Lefty strikes out That Fucking Dodger to win it.

    Dubon is daBomb !
    Keep playing’ this kid. No need to see Craw much more .
    And, where’s Davis?
    Dubon will probably put 10 lbs on the next year or two, add some more muscle. This kid may have 15 HR pop eventually, with that D quickness and field coverage.
    Looks like he’s a steal for Zman…
