A Place To Talk About Giants Baseball

Wilmet Leads MLB in RBI’s LOL

Posted in Uncategorized by Flavor on May 18, 2025

Miller throwing 104 and Wilmet just absolutely spitting on that shit. That dude has somehow given up 9 hits in 16 innings. Who is hitting that?

Let’s finish off the city-less A’s with me and my dad getting to watch the game together. Just like old times.

    Very cool, Flav. Enjoy the hell out of that.

    As far as Wilbur goes, I’m just blown away. He played 1st that night as well.

    Crazy shit.

    just foul off the unhittable strikes and take the rest–nothing to it. Ha! What an AB. Wilmer needs to stay healthy and rested so he can do this the entire season.

    meanwhile, how about Lee’s play at the wall? I’m still astonished by his blend of precision and athleticism.

    • willedav's avatar willedav said, on May 18, 2025 at 8:31 am

      Yeah it’s not just the offense though he is fav hitter to watch.
      So great for guys like Ramos and Matos to have Flores around. Lot for them to absorb about how to handle yourself day to day.

    Quick hits: (1) Overdue for Giants to give Verlander nice run cushion in first five innings today. (2) First major roster adjustment in 2025: Birdsong to starting rotation and Hicks to bullpen. (3) Subtle tweak to relief corps with Doval seeming to reclaim 9th inning duties. (4) Just passed quarter pole in season and Giants despite 1-5 skid last week vs Twins & D’backs have played consistent .575-.600 baseball. (5) Adames & Chapman slowly rounding into form while Bailey & Wade remain weak link in lineup. (6) Bailey’s defense and management of pitching staff will keep him in everyday lineup but Posey’s first big in season test may be trading for power hitting 1B.

    “A Giant Among Giants” is new bio of Willie Mac written by Chris Haft. First chapter of him arriving mid 1959 with big game vs. Robin Roberts and eventually winning NL Rookie of the Year unanimously and helping to fuel pennant run gets book off to great start.

    Hope V can settle down after 27 pitch first inning.

  6. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 said, on May 18, 2025 at 1:24 pm

    El Pelota Ramos! 1 pitch 1HR!!!

  7. xoot's avatar xoot said, on May 18, 2025 at 1:35 pm

    Vamos Ramos!

    this big kid Kurtz at 1B for sack was their top draft pick just last summer. Similar to Eldridge (who went 3-4 last night w. 2HRs and a double). Difference is two years in age and college experience. Also, the A’s always rush their prospects to the majors.

  8. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 said, on May 18, 2025 at 1:57 pm

    Yeah the A’s throw these kids right into the fire unlike the Giants That kid SS Jacob Wilson a #1 pick in 2023 even played last year at 22 ,weird stance but he’s been effective hiring .342?
    A’s have some real nice players with Wilson,Langleirs,Rooker,Butler,Kurtz,Soderstrom,Andujar etc..

  9. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 said, on May 18, 2025 at 2:13 pm

    Mr.V is not cutting it..84 pitches, 5Walks lucky to be down only 2-1 ..That elusive 1st win continues on cause he’s done early today as Bivens comes again..

  10. willedav's avatar willedav said, on May 18, 2025 at 2:27 pm

    Some nice plays on IF today by Giants D.

    2 shutout innings for Bivens. Yesterday pen had 4 no hit innings to hold off A’s.

  11. Macdog's avatar Macdog said, on May 18, 2025 at 2:51 pm

    A baserunner!

  12. willedav's avatar willedav said, on May 18, 2025 at 2:54 pm

    Finally another baserunner, and they got Springs out of the game.

  13. willedav's avatar willedav said, on May 18, 2025 at 3:10 pm

    LaMonte “I’m not dead yet” Wade Jr. Nice to see, off high 96 fastball. At least shooed away buzzards for another week or so.

    • willedav's avatar willedav said, on May 18, 2025 at 3:11 pm

      And Bailey drives him in.

  14. Macdog's avatar Macdog said, on May 18, 2025 at 3:10 pm

    Tie game!

  15. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 said, on May 18, 2025 at 3:13 pm

    How about that are 2worst hitters Wade&Bailey deliver a triple&and a tying single!!2-2!!! Baseball is so unpredictable sometimes..

  16. Macdog's avatar Macdog said, on May 18, 2025 at 3:14 pm

    Untied!

  17. xoot's avatar xoot said, on May 18, 2025 at 3:15 pm

    I like Ramos. But damn he has a negligent streak.

    • Macdog's avatar Macdog said, on May 18, 2025 at 3:18 pm

      Yeah, didn’t he get in same kind of rundown last week?

      • willedav's avatar willedav said, on May 18, 2025 at 3:29 pm

        Yes. This time throw wasn’t cut off and he still got caught.

  18. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 said, on May 18, 2025 at 3:16 pm

    Verlander off the hook again..

  19. xoot's avatar xoot said, on May 18, 2025 at 3:24 pm

    sweep!

  20. Macdog's avatar Macdog said, on May 18, 2025 at 3:25 pm

    SWEEEEP!

  21. willedav's avatar willedav said, on May 18, 2025 at 3:25 pm

    As Elmore James put it, “I’m getting up soon in the morning/I believe I’ll dust my broom.”

    thanks for stopping by A’s.

  22. willedav's avatar willedav said, on May 18, 2025 at 4:13 pm

    5 innings of one hit shutout relief today behind Verlander. 0 BB/5 K. without Rogers or Doval.

  23. Macdog's avatar Macdog said, on May 18, 2025 at 4:18 pm

    What a weekend! Bums swept by Halos and Pads swept by M’s.

  24. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 said, on May 18, 2025 at 4:33 pm

    Yeah sure was sweet and needed Mac!Pickup 3 games in 3 days and now only 1 game back again…

    A little surprised Walker closed but he did it.

    Damn. Al Central a little bit hotter than the NL West. 4th place KC is 26-22. Deetroit leads the majors at 31-16. And we got them coming up on our east cost swing coming up.

      Yes this road trip could be brutal for the Giants. It’s gonna be a good test and hopefully we can come out with a .500 trip.

    Have to dust off that album…..

    • willedav's avatar willedav said, on May 18, 2025 at 7:57 pm

      When Hudson pitched for Giants, I think Stix used to mention “Terraplane.” I think that one is my favorite, buzzing of the bottleneck before he ends the verses. In some of the comments the speed of recording is brought up.

      • xoot's avatar xoot said, on May 19, 2025 at 4:41 pm

        been a while since I stopped into the Beat Museum in North Beach but they used to have an actual Hudson Hornet in the main room identical to the one Cassady and Kerouac drove.

  31. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 19, 2025 at 5:55 pm

    Love that little corner of the city. Up to and including the Tupac mural. City Lights. The t-shirt shop. Mr. Bings. Bummed that Rogue Brewery burned down on Union. And they fucking shut down Cap’s Corner.

    Worked at 655 Montgomery for 6 years but went to Club Fugazi about 50 times over the past 50 years.

    • xoot's avatar xoot said, on May 19, 2025 at 6:16 pm

      my last office in the city was on Columbus across the street from Mr Bings. I greatly enjoyed that neighborhood.

    5 hopper…is that Giants first hit? Guess not

  37. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 said, on May 19, 2025 at 8:10 pm

    You know it’s the end of the line for Villar again, but he was actually better then Schmitt. with both small sample sizes( avg,OPS).Age I guess played into, but Villar makes the catch that Schmitt just butchered

    Hey can we get a fucking hit off this chump?..

  38. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 19, 2025 at 8:23 pm

    We did. After the fact.

  39. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 said, on May 19, 2025 at 8:24 pm

    Can’t believe they changed that to a hit.Flores would of been out by 10 ft, that’s wrought way to lose a no hitter..

  40. Macdog's avatar Macdog said, on May 19, 2025 at 8:26 pm

    Now that’s a hit.

  41. willedav's avatar willedav said, on May 19, 2025 at 8:26 pm

    There’s a real one. Nice shot Casey!

  42. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 19, 2025 at 8:26 pm

    Mr. Rogers strikes again.

    • willedav's avatar willedav said, on May 19, 2025 at 8:47 pm

      mm his last 5 outings he had not even allowed a baserunner in 5 innings. someone on TA said it and I looked it up, and he was right. 9 groundball outs, 2 flyball outs, 4 Ks. 0-15 from hitters.

      Royals did smoke couple off him, to their credit.

      • Macdog's avatar Macdog said, on May 19, 2025 at 10:21 pm

        Sorry, but it’s doubtful I’ll ever warm up to him. It doesn’t help I attended two of his meltdowns last year (at Mets, at Cubs) that still piss me off.

  46. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 19, 2025 at 8:36 pm

  51. willedav's avatar willedav said, on May 19, 2025 at 8:52 pm

    And he comes through. 11-53 coming into tonight, 13-65 (.200) in May.

  53. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 said, on May 19, 2025 at 8:58 pm

    Late in the game send Ramos as the tying run never really showed a play rounding 3 rd? Williams fast on the brakes call??

    • unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 19, 2025 at 9:17 pm

      Yeah, wondering that myself, but down the line is so short.

  54. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 said, on May 19, 2025 at 9:05 pm

    Hicks is showing I can suck as a reliever too!!

  55. mrsprtdude's avatar mrsprtdude said, on May 19, 2025 at 9:17 pm

    last 3 games the offense has ben bad even by our standards!

  56. mrsprtdude's avatar mrsprtdude said, on May 19, 2025 at 9:18 pm

    Hopefully we can get some hits for birdsong tomorrow!

  57. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 said, on May 19, 2025 at 9:23 pm

    Giants were 9-0 in Robbie Ray starts the BP screwed it up tonight..

    Birdsong time to deliver tomorrow night in his 1st start!!
