Golf And Baseball
Well giddythefuckup. We got an electric series beginning in LA tonight with what appears to be both teams going with….openers. Lol, whatever. It’s a huge series and a good measuring stick for who this team is.
I’m glad it’s a night game because my eyes are transfixed on the US Open. I love every single one of these holes. It was high time those stuffed shirts at the LACC let the Open be played on their magnificent course. I wonder if San Dawg is making the drive over to walk that bitch and watch a round. I know I would.
A Place To Talk About Giants Baseball 
My boss’ house is about four blocks away from the 14th tee and I guess the former Playboy Mansion. Looks like a pain in the ass golf course:). I could not play a couple of years ago at Riviera day before boys’ daughters wedding…but the reception was there and that was pretty cool. Let’s sweep these LA bastards…
Is this accurate?

shit horse racing has been partnering with the Saudi’s for years and no one says a peep.
Solid point…
Saudi Arabia and horse racing goes back 70 years or some shit.
The Phil Mickelson shit though happened now. After the Saudis killed that WSJ journalist. And after 9/11 of course.
Chuck makes a valid point as well…
there are some funny stories about that course. For instance, Hugh Heff wanted to build a heli pad at his house but he needed permission for LACC to do it. They said no. He said if I join will you let me? They said “you can’t join”. LOL, exclusive fucks. So he went and built a zoo on his property that made enough noise to irritate the club members when they played past his house (on whatever hole it is)
Ah Homer Jones dead at age 82 from lung cancer. First to spike ball after TD and frequent long range target of Giants QB Fran Tarkenton. Averaged almost 25 yards a catch in 1967. Track man and football star at Texas Southern one of fastest and best in his day.
All the Way With Homer J ……
Phils are in town vs. Oakland after having won I think 10 of last 12 to get over .500. Giants are one of probably 6 NL teams around .500 mark fighting for 3 WC spots.
Be interesting to see how well they can hang with NL West rivals over next 10 games. They’ve been very streaky so far this season as was pointed out earlier by James.
Course played way to easy on day1 when Fowler( pulling for him hasn’t won in 5 years)and Schauffle (sp?)shooting course record 62’s and throw in 2 Aces from others .I’m sure they will setup up the course much tougher today& the rest of the way.US Open’s are normally the toughest venue to win.Didn’t realize the fairways are 45 yard wide? Hell I could keep a few in play lol.You can really drive them long as long as you don’t end up in the deep rough are barranca.
Any word on Davis?
After slow start Luciano having great June at Richmond. 4-6 yesterday as they swept DH doubled and homered. June #s: 12-48 2 doubles 4 HRs 10 BBs 16 Ks. Pushed OPS up to .800 for season with .473 slugging.
Big protest outside of Dodger stadium, they just closed the main gates.
Who’s protesting what?
Angry Catholics.
The Dodgers are doing a Pride Night. And one of the groups involved is some men who like to dress as nuns.
Protesting what?
Those superstitious cocksuckers better not get in the way of my Friday night entertainment. If the Dodgers hadn’t been spineless weasels to begin with, none of this would have been an issue.
Ahhhh, Pride Night.
Pride goeth before a ball…
So let’s update the Conservative anger list:
Rainbow anything
Bud Light
Tony the Tiger
Disney
Chick FiLa
Guys who dress as nuns
M&Ms
They should have “No Pride” night.
I’d be in row one…
🙂
If I was Kapler, I would complain about the long laces on the Dodger pitcher’s glove…
Why can’t Brebbia go two innings
Giants facing a new starting pitcher for the first time.
Remember the old days, when you could say happy Bloomsday without getting into a debate with homophobic fascists? Trump.
My least favorite TV commercial these days:
Young adults singing “Sweet Caroline” together in the hipster bar. In a liquor commercial. People in their 20s drinking whiskey. What could go wrong?
Yeah, that’s the devil those roller skating men in nun drag hope to fight.
The ump is giving the Dodger pitcher a perfect strike zone for him. All those high pitches that are being called strikes.
Lennon’s “Imagine” hasn’t quite worked out…
I’ve really grown to appreciate Jon Miller.
Always in the game.
Always seems to be in a good mood…
Are the Father’s Day box seat tickets $99 each or $99 for two?
The ad wasn’t clear…
They just can’t beat this goddamn team.
Any plans for the Met series, Mac?
Maybe Saturday 4 PM for me but idk, do you?
I can probably make the Saturday game.
Confoundo…
I would rather get no-hit by Edmund Sherrod…
Wow. That went south fast.
Andy Summers from the band The Police is 80 years old. What?
80 is the new 60…
Oh fuck this sideways.
It’s become all about the no-no in the guy’s debut who may be done after less than 90 pitches…
Remember Randy Winn homering after practically breaking his leg on a foul ball.
Maybe 15 years ago…
What is it with Manaea? I like the guy…. excellent K to innings pitched ratio… but when he’s not striking ’em out, he’s not doing very well just getting them out…
Mr.ED bad hoof and all days WTF I don’t need to run lm bombing on one out!!!
Gotta love this guy!!!
Hey Fleming take notes the Giants Flapper are more thankful Manea is out of the game!
I can’t stomach him anymore.
BF ..Kapler always uses Brebbia for one inning as the opener and yes it’s freaking stupid..
Hope y’all didn’t give up on this one…
Casey for the lead!
Man, Dogs’ bullpen seems to suck…
Unca, they made a u turn at South.
Electronic balls and strikes calls, please.
Shitty call on Yaz but too close to take and trust the ump in that spot…
Dodgers used their best reliever, Phillips, for 2 innings last night.
Good eye Matos
Doval isn’t fooling anyone
Wow!!!
Yeah, he’s been extraordinary.
Bailey what a great catcher this guy is going to be!
Wtf was Mookie thinking your already in scoring position?
Get ‘em in the 10th boys!! Dodgers BP is trash 🗑️
Betts is a high % good base stealer, but as you said, that was all Bailey. Betts, as good as he is, should have known better.
He can’t bunt either.
Estrada getting hit doomed that inning.
So even if you don’t have a challenge, you still do…
Kid is going to make his bones here.
Take it . . . Kid knows the strike zone.
Nice.
Alright Craw!
Alright Slater!
Gmen are relentless in this game.
Slater, again.
Well, they got the out.
That has never happened before.
Somebody say something!
Yes! Best win of the season!
What a finish. there’s one
Not once, but twice the Giants came back from Dodger leads. Giants letting the Bums know they’re not going to roll over for anyone, especially them.
Outta here . . . good night all!
Wow.
Yeah, Slater again, he’s turned into a professional hitter. Dude should stay healthy, can use his bat in the lineup…
As Jon Miller would say that was the worst baserunning in the history of the game! And it wasn’t Even Ruben Riviera!
Hey whatever it takes a Win is a Win!! Hell Yeah!!
I sometimes watch the video of Rivera’s baserunning adventure. It’s always funny.
What just happened??!!:):):)
Best win of the season so far.
Terrible baserunning from Betts.
Crazy shit there. Missed that popup play. What a break.
And the attempted steal of 3rd. Nutty shit.
Dodgers had some injuries in the game:
“Chris Taylor leaves with right knee pain, David Peralta suffers hamstring strain
Taylor will have knee examined Saturday to determine severity of injury”
What a game!!!! A roller coaster ride and then an epic win!!
