Get Past SD For A Spot
Well, here we are. The final regular series of 2020. It certainly doesn’t feel like it should be ending so quickly but that’s what a 60 game season will do to you. We might get in if we win 2 games, we will likely get in if we win 3. San Diego’s motivation level is low so we might have a chance. Either way, if they do get in I’ll feel better about their walk of shame spot because they will have at least beaten a top team to get in……
Oh no! Baby don’t do it
It’s Kapler’s fault.
*gulp*
A lesser outfielder would’ve been fooled.
Not the Grave Duggar!
Hey, just glad it wasn’t Pence
Hooooooooooooooooooooo doggies.
Yes! Game 1 win!!

You mean me? All I said is it doesn’t make one fucking bit of difference how a team compiles a good OPS, the number of runs you score will be basically the same. It’s very hard to compile a good team OPS without hitting for power … and drawing a fair number of walks. It is not all that uncommon for a team to hit a lot of HRs and have a shitty team OPS, and a mediocre offense.
No, not just you. And I wasn’t talking about team OPS I was talking about individual OPS which OFTEN is not fueled by only power. You DID support the Joey Gallo pick up, should we have done it, and that was a well supported comment.
I guess Matt Olsen sucks with that OPS of .745. Even with the 32 walks.
Matt Olsen is a poor man’s Gallo. And if he isn’t careful he’s going to be a Dave Kingman…..
Heh heh . . . the new age baseball player. Home run or nothing
Kingman would be much sought after in today’s game, wouldn’t he?
Whew.
phew
Pawlie: You seem rejuvenated!
it passes
Ok so basically the biggest game of the year is now being handed to a dude who hasn’t pitched since Aug 7th, who has pitched 3 times this season all 3 teams been terrible. Ok, let’s roll…..
This Smarge game is MONUMENTAL. If we win we have a little leeway to split this weekend. If we lose we have to win both. And the game is being given to fucking Smarglebarg. I give him a 3% chance of pitching well enough for us to win
Did any pitcher (Suarez?) get activated or brought in from the Forbidden Zone for Game 2?
I have no idea what the rules are this season…
Só basically when we Bomb Japan with no fuel to get back to the carriers, this turns into a suicide mission …
Good thing this was only 7 innings.
East coasters beat me to the whews. What can you say, but Watson started off bad and managed to settle down and rescue the must game. This next one looks chancy at best, but who knows, maybe for all the bucks he’s gotten from SF maybe Smardj will surprise everyone…and I mean everyone…myself especially.
Rays up on the Phillies 6-4 in the 9th!
Phillies lose.
yeah remember that, Gene Mauch.
Till the ’69 Cubbbies.
I mean let’s fucking go, right? What else do we have to do tonight?????
Cards up 7-0 second game vs. Brewers. that would be 30 Ls for MIL, same as Phils now. Giants and Reds (currently ahead of Twins 4-1) have 28. If SF can come up with one more W should be in as WC with Cincy.
I hope I’m never forced to choose between by door slamming dummy and my dancing Giant fan.
I love them both so much…
No on Stanton MacDog..
Maybe Smarge has his Zito moment.
That’s right. We are the away team. Be nice to get 5 or 6 runs for Smargle to play with.
Oh shit. Here we go.
I remember when the Giants gave the biggest game of the year to rookie Solomon Torres, that one was not their finest moment.Atleast Shark has experience and it’s not an elimination game..
Wow. Just got home and looked at the score. That must have been a fantastic game. Congrats to the Giants. Lets go for two.
It was great till the near disaster 7th.
Not taking long for Krukow to suck Smargl’s pole..
If he gets the win, there will be a line . . .
Don’t forget your Nurx. . .
One in the books for the Smardj. That’s a victory of sorts. If nothing else, he may be bringing a bit of pride to the contest.
Now was that so difficult?
That was a nice at bat for Belt
Amy G is such a bonehead.Can she really believe the Giants are bringing back the Shark.Shit 5/90 they’ve been counting down the days since Sabean/Evans gave him that ridiculous contract..
Wow. The check swing attack.
Three check swing hits? Well, Belt’s was slightly more. Wtf. Take it.
A beat-the-shift double and two check swings, whatever it takes.
BB9 roaring down the turnpike like a big-rig in heat on two groundouts and scoring. Yay!
just takin’ this one inning at a time…..
That was a pretty economical inning for Smardj.
Twinner would have been fucking all in today. I miss Twinner being all in….
Yup.
First K!
I’m a total hypocrite I think the bible is complete nonsense. And the idea of heaven and hell is comical to me. But when I get all agitated and emotional I start imaging dudes looking down on this shit. I really believe Twinner is watching this game tonight and rooting his ass off, what is wrong with me?????
You’re a dunderhead!
And now the first run.
Pull him. Jesus, that’s about the longest one I’ve seen here.
That went to hell in a hurry.
His personalized license plate says: sHRk
Man, Tatis hit the shit out of dat one.
Has that ball landed yet!!
i know he hit a bomb tonight but Acuna hit one 495 earlier, check it out on mlb.com if you want to see a monster bomb
Give me a break K&K that’s a big league play that should of easily been made.Dick is out by a step and a half .Error all the way..
Another good at bat for Belt
Hooo. Thank you Garcia!
Take that run any way you can get it.
Thank god Padres defense is sucking balls this inning..
Wow. Padres suddenly iffy for their playoff run.
wow hate to see that. As Blade said earlier, Lamet is good looking young pitcher.
Wow Lament was probably pissed at his defense and took him self out.Either way good break for the Giants.
Some team might give a modest contract to Smardj. He ran into trouble the second time around a very tough lineup. Indicates he might could make for a three inning designated starter, much like Webb needed.
He’d be more valuable to the 49ers than the Giants right now…
Hah!!!
or Notre Dame
Just glad he won’t be our problem soon.
Yup..
Bart is REALLY due.
fuck
He’s the new Jason Tyner…
I was gonna say Kuiper.
You gotta play around in B/R more often.
Enough with that silly day job…
Did I hear the Marlins & Reds clinched?
No idea if that’s good, bad or neither for us…
We are fighting for 8 now with The Brewers and Phillies (I think)
I guess we could reach 7th but we’d have to win out and the Cards fold up.
I really like this Garcia.
Bart has signal trouble with Spanish speaking pitchers. Wtf? They’re signals.
Bart doesn’t know how to say “no” in Spanish…
Maybe he needs to put a taco 🌮 down for his signals..
Kinda weird that it’s the 6th inning and it might be the last time up for the top of the order batters.
I like that we’re hanging around…
Willburrrrrrrrrrrr! Let’s go!
Wilmet was a notorious clutch hitter in his Met days.
How about now?
We need another Wilmet bigtime moment !
Homer Flores!
YEeeeeeehaaaaaaaawww! Wiilllllbbuuuuuurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!
DH! And whew.
And there it is Fuck Yeah!!!!
There’s the Pummelranz we know!
Wilmet for President!
wilmet strikes again. Still favorite guy to watch hit.
