A Place To Talk About Giants Baseball

Well Lookie Here!

Posted in Uncategorized by Flavor on September 24, 2020

Back in the post season saddle.

I don’t know how much resistance Colorado is putting up. They have a distinctive *Seattle* feel to them. But whatever, we can only play the teams on the schedule. While part of me doesn’t want to see them make the playoffs due to the extremely high chances for nationwide embarrassment, I really don’t have anything else to do these days other than root for them to win ball games.

Therefore, “go fast and win”–name the movie for a notch on your Flap trivia belt.

    Come on Dick!

    Huh that works to Rox advantage. Fuentes is still hitting and he’s already seen Rogers.

    • willedav's avatar willedav said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:20 pm

      And Rogers Ks him big out.

    Does it seem like every time we go into extra innings the other team has a speedster at 2nd and we have “Big Titty’s”

      Dickerson this time. He runs pretty well.

    Good job by the pen there.

    IF in…find a hole.

    Wilmet….damn, thought it was out of here!

  9. Lurker John's avatar Lurker John said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:32 pm

    Fuck! Thought that was gone.

  10. James's avatar James said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:33 pm

    They really should walk the first batter. The chances of scoring a single run go down a fair bit with runners on 1st and second and no outs.

    • alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:38 pm

      That was just an absolute web gem play by Storey on a ball scoured to get the out at home..

  11. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:33 pm

    Don’t tease me Kuiper!!
    Still a productive out..

    Gotta say Bud Black made the right call, dang.

  19. djloo27's avatar djloo27 said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:42 pm

    That shit rarely works.
    Just a great fuckin’ play…

  20. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:42 pm

    I am with James. Start of an extra inning, I would immediately walk the lead off hitter and set up the double play.

    • pawliekokonuts's avatar pawliekokonuts said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:44 pm

      yeah, why not?

    • willedav's avatar willedav said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:49 pm

      James said odds of scoring go down but how much though? I haven’t seen this approach used very often, so I wonder why not if analytics are high on it. Adding extra baserunner seems odd–a hit puts another runner in scoring position.

      • James's avatar James said, on September 24, 2020 at 5:44 pm

        They only need one run to win. The runner at first doesn’t matter in the circumstance the Rockies were in.

  21. Flavor's avatar Flavor said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:42 pm

    when did Matt Kemp turn into a fat white guy?

    • Lurker John's avatar Lurker John said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:44 pm

      No shit. Hardly recognized him.

    • pawliekokonuts's avatar pawliekokonuts said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:45 pm

      Is Fat White Guys Matter on the back of his jersey?

    • djloo27's avatar djloo27 said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:47 pm

      Jesus, he looks like Sal Fasano…

    • alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:52 pm

      13 years eating pasta with LaSorda will do it..

  22. pawliekokonuts's avatar pawliekokonuts said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:43 pm

    I can’t believe I’m getting caught up in this, afraid to look at the score in a game with cardboard fans. What’s become of me?

  23. Lurker John's avatar Lurker John said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:47 pm

    Strike out or DP, let’s go.

  24. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:50 pm

    I don’t know why they just didn’t walk Tapia and setup a force at home are a DP ball?

  25. James's avatar James said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:50 pm

    How’d the old fat white guy wind up at second?

    • djloo27's avatar djloo27 said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:53 pm

      He rolled there…

    • alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:56 pm

      Junkyard Dog Cahill makes me grimace everytime he comes in!!

  26. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:51 pm

    Cahill is really wearing on my nerves. 0-2 and he can’t put guys away.

  27. Flavor's avatar Flavor said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:55 pm

    I’m locking in Doobie scoring right now.

  28. Flavor's avatar Flavor said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:56 pm

    I’m serious man, I’m looking at some old photos of Matt Kemp. That dude was an athletic looking stud ala Eric Davis. Now? He’s not recognizable

    • alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:59 pm

      He was only in shape when he was banging Rihanna..

  29. James's avatar James said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:57 pm

    The 3 SF has coming up make it feel like their record is 8-16 again.

  30. Lurker John's avatar Lurker John said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:57 pm

    I’m not digging the bunt there. Dubon is fast and already in scoring position.

    • chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on September 24, 2020 at 4:58 pm

      But a sac fly gets him home, now….

  31. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on September 24, 2020 at 5:00 pm

    Fuck fuck fuck!!!

  32. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on September 24, 2020 at 5:00 pm

    I need a fucking drink. A double!

  33. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on September 24, 2020 at 5:00 pm

    Wasted too many shots. Bad loss.

  34. Lurker John's avatar Lurker John said, on September 24, 2020 at 5:00 pm

    So much for that dumbass strategy. Kapler ain’t too impressive.

  35. djloo27's avatar djloo27 said, on September 24, 2020 at 5:00 pm

  36. Flavor's avatar Flavor said, on September 24, 2020 at 5:01 pm

    Fuck. That one was frustrating.

  37. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 said, on September 24, 2020 at 5:01 pm

    Are you hit into a game losing DP!!
    Fuck that sucked!!

  38. willedav's avatar willedav said, on September 24, 2020 at 5:02 pm

    Wow the agony of defeat. giants had that one won couple times it seemed.
    Cahill btw sucks.

  39. pawliekokonuts's avatar pawliekokonuts said, on September 24, 2020 at 5:05 pm

    I mean, that spoils my mood. We should’ve sent Son of Sam in to bat, take a few hacks. (Oh. Right. He was a shooter.)

    This loss blows.

  40. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 said, on September 24, 2020 at 5:33 pm

    They have to win 3 out of 4 now against a Padres that has beaten them 4 out of 5..
    Not an easy task with their starting pitchers..

  41. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on September 24, 2020 at 6:48 pm

    Well, for someone (me) who had no expectations, I am wound-up as all fuck on this stretch for the playoffs. 😂

    Right now we’re in the 8 hole. Phillies and Cincy are off today. Brew is playing the Cards and they are tied 1-1 in the 4th. These two play four more to finish the season, including a DH tomorrow.

    Just win baby.

  42. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on September 24, 2020 at 6:52 pm

    One way or another we should know by tomorrow

  43. Flavor's avatar Flavor said, on September 24, 2020 at 6:54 pm

    Can’t lose a game like this. I know Story made an incredible play but still, can’t lose that game. In some ways this is good. If they want to make this sham post season they’re going to have to beat a good team 3/4. I highly doubt they do that. But I’d rather have them fail on a regional station than a national one……

  44. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on September 24, 2020 at 8:38 pm

    Milwaukee lost 4-2 to te Cards, so we still have the 8th seed.

  46. willedav's avatar willedav said, on September 24, 2020 at 9:02 pm

    Matt Kemp was a CF when he was almost MVP, losing out to FedEx Braun, right?

  47. mrsprtdude's avatar mrsprtdude said, on September 24, 2020 at 9:13 pm

    Both Brewers and Giants DH tomorrow. All on the line! Crazy to think our season rests amybe on the shark. On the list of biggest busts in SF FA history. Sigh

  48. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on September 24, 2020 at 10:00 pm

    There is a lot to look at here, but the key to this loss IMO was in the 2nd inning when they couldn’t get more than one run with bases loaded and one out. Ya got to hang a crooked number there.

    3/4 would almost guarantee getting in, but I think they could get in At 2/2. Brewers play five more against the Cards, and Cincy closes woth three against Cleveland. Philly closes with Tampa Bay. So all of those teams chasing us are playing good teams.

    I mean it could happen. And monkeys might fly outta my butt.

    Crazy crazy shit. Entertaining and tortuous at the same time. Pour me a drink and make it a double.
