Around SBN: Steve McNair Found Shot to Death

Post-Game Fun Chatter!

Once again, the limp offense of the Giants ruins a perfectly good Saturday. I'm not sure what's more depressing, the fact...

...wait, they're still playing?

...what in the hell....

Harden pitches lights out and leaves up 7-0. Correia didn’t show up today and leaves losing 7-0.

For those who haven’t noticed, we have Velez playing left and Burris playing right. We have no pinch hitters left on the bench, and only one reliever (Hinshaw.) Things may get even more interesting.

So we had this discussion yesterday when we were threatening in the 9th

Would you rather them just not threaten in late innings or come back and just give up the inevitable?

Yeah he did pretty well. I caught the “highlights” on the 10 O’Clock News just now.

"While conservatives tell you 'leave things alone and no one will lose,' and liberals tell you 'interfere a lot and no one will lose,' baseball says 'someone will lose.' Not only says it - but insists upon it! ... Democracy is lovely, but baseball's more mature." BVCE supports SF Dugout and Manny Burriss.

But a hit to the pitcher is really just a fluke

by FairweatherFan on Jul 12, 2008 2:03 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

That is another issue

But you can’t blame Wilson for the hit by the pitcher. What you want him to do is throw strikes, and he did. Marshall stuck his bat out there and got a hit – it happens. The walk is much worse.

The Giants should come up with a song to sing at the end of wins at home to annoy the hell out of the opposing teams. Of course, we won’t be hearing the song very often, so we wouldn’t tire of too quickly.
