they needed another pitcher to face the offensive powerhouse that is steve holm
Raj's #1 Fan!!! (the announcer that is)
At least it wasn't a GIDP.
Tony goes out to the mound to make it look like he's afraid of the Bocock within...
"You're all worthless and weak, now drop and give me twenty!"
Timpner?
left handed bat?
Adopted papa of a bouncing new waiver wire 27 year old. Castillo hits doubles.
Power is as Power does...
What it's name?
Bocock.
"You're all worthless and weak, now drop and give me twenty!"
Zito could've made contact.

3 innings...3 missed opportunities...I have a very bad feeling.
Raj's #1 Fan!!! (the announcer that is)
They had great momentum...
Until Tim Flannery tried to join in the fun. End momentum.

Cards don't look like they are done yet.

Thanks, Sabean
Barton wouldn't have looked good in a Giants uni at all.

Barry Zito pitched well tonight. Good job working with Holm. He has improved in each outing this season.
bah
Pujols. First pitch pop-up. He's not that good. Tell you what, STL, we'll give you Kevin Correia for him. He pitched 7 2/3 shutout innings against you yesterday!
How is it that our super veteran 41-year-old Japanese import reliever throws 94 but our 29 year-old 6'4" lefty "ace" can't crack 85?

Love the sig.
Does Barry accept coins before he can speak too? : )

Yeah, that's the ticket, walk the guy with the career .334 slugging percentage.

Skippy Schumacher must hit a ball that's uncatchable.

the problem with having durham, castillo, and aurilia as your 4, 5, 6 hitters is that you kinda hope they will fail
Uribe to Thompson to Clark: Don't tinker ever with chance
I didn't know . . .
It was Free Coonskin Cap Giveaway Night. Free to the first 10,000 fans. Too bad only 8,000 showed up.
must be nice having hitters in your lineup

Check it out, though
If you take out the unearned runs, it's a tie game!
And since they didn't technically earn those runs, there's no good reason for them to get to keep them.
Yay! Tie game! We can win it in the ninth!

I might be going out on a limb here
but I don't think the Giants are going to win this one.

Seven losses this season, three of them by the billion dollar man.

Zito's not an ace
but he is a stopper.
by John Paulies on Apr 11, 2008 10:08 PM PDT up reply actions
He is an ace
Just not the ace of winning.

I'd also like to submit this:
"He is an ace, though. Just not the ace of clubs, diamonds, or hearts.
Wait... the suits are clubs, diamonds, hearts, and suck... right?"

Nah, Zito's alright
I only joke about him because he's an easy target.
I mean, have you tried joking about difficult targets? Let me tell you, it's pretty hard.

agreed
It looked like an encouraging start. What was his fastball velocity at tonight? I missed most of the game.
by John Paulies on Apr 11, 2008 10:18 PM PDT up reply actions
there goes my prediction of a 5 game winning streak
Uribe to Thompson to Clark: Don't tinker ever with chance
got the great starts by sanchez and correia thing right, but should've known that a semi-okay outing by zito would not result in a win with this offense.
oh well, back to life, back to reality

In other (and better) news
Grizzlies score 5 in the 9th to beat Tuscon 6-5 in their home opener.
I left after the 8th, when Tuscon was up 4-1. D'oh!!
