Never would have asked that. Why would you have the best player on your team bunt when you’re down by 2 and there are 2 men on base? Especially when there’s a righty on the mound and Diaz is on deck. The call made no sense. You knew they’d bring in a lefty for McCann, too. The guy to get it done was Prado, and the manager took the bat out of his hand. Shame.

The Giants need to seal the deal. I feel like tomorrow’s game is pretty much a must win for our guys considering the match up the Phillies have.

Is Bama Bangs really the Falcons’ back up QB?
August 19th, 2010 at 9:41 pm
Well, I really wanted a shutout but I’ll take a win.

Bullet dodged.
Now, let’s go forward BraveLee. Gain a little Leeway. Gotta keep our Leed. Phils are gettin’ tired, gotta Leen on ‘em hard. Score some runs, boys. pLees.

That’s just the funniest thing I’ve ever seen in my life. I’m guessing I’m the last person in the world to see it.

Good grief! I just realized I’ve been commenting for a week and haven’t listened to the show! SCORE! I get an ABT show on Friday Night!!! Yessssss.

Good show.
I predict we WILL pick up a waiver trade, though, and do not agree that no power bats will be available. 8)
Post season hope meter: 9
Division win meter: 5
I think the Braves and Phillies are the two best teams in the league and that they will both make it.

Bub, #285, I agree. The Giants have lost series to the Braves, Padres, and Phillies in August. They’re about to play St. Louis and Cincy. This is a big series for both them and the cardinals, who have been really struggling lately, too. I don’t see the Giants hanging in there with their spotty offense, and their pitching hasn’t been real great lately. I’m keeping my eyes on that Central race. I gotta think the Cards will do something eventually, but the Reds have a really good team. I just don’t think both are going to make the playoffs. The Wild Card might actually be the best slot to go to the playoffs in the NL. You get the Padres, who are a good team, but I would much rather play them in a 5 game series than the Reds or Cardinals.

Yeah, clearly this week has made me rethink all things Giants. They are going backward right now.

“It was kind of like when you look at your wife and act like you’re listening and you don’t really hear what she said,” Diaz said in an attempt to explain why he didn’t immediately react to Gonzalez’s popup. Aw, shucks. Bet he (and the wifey) are glad he left town after THOSE bon mots.

Today’s lineup: Infante – 4 Heyward – 9 Prado – 5 Lee – 3 McCann – 2 Gonzalez – 6 Cabrera – 7 Ankiel – 8 Jurrjens – 1
August 20th, 2010 at 10:41 am
Prado, Lee, Mac is pretty nice in the middle of the line up. It would be really awesome if the Gonz and Fake Suntan would hit.
Bub – I’d not seen that video either. Really funny.

Proof that the front office is hopeful: Season Ticketholders e-mail today offers post-season tickets NOW online. …how high does my hope meter need to be to go on and buy???
August 20th, 2010 at 11:03 am
Nate, to answer your question, he is the 3rd string QB behind Ryan and Chris Redman
August 20th, 2010 at 12:40 pm
Yeah, I did a double take when he went in after Ryan came out last night.
August 20th, 2010 at 12:48 pm
Getting my score card ready!
August 20th, 2010 at 12:55 pm
Cripes – another day game! Oh, White Sox…
August 20th, 2010 at 1:36 pm
Lee gets Crime Dog’s old number (#27). I like the synchronicity so far.
August 20th, 2010 at 2:51 pm
Can we score first once?
So Prado bunts and Jurrgens swings away. Brilliant
August 20th, 2010 at 2:52 pm
re #295 – I wrote White Sox after looking at the Braves schedule on my wall that clearly says CHI…I thought Cubs were CHC but I see now I’m wrong. Duh. Oh, Cubs…
August 20th, 2010 at 2:54 pm
Curt – I’m with you, man. Could we score first, please!?!?!
August 20th, 2010 at 2:55 pm
Let me change my tone for a moment….
O-MAR!
