and

“Padres manager Bud Black, an NL coach, confirmed Lincecum wouldn’t have pitched in the game, anyway, because he pitched Sunday, same as Brandon Webb of the Diamondbacks. Black did say they might have been used in extra innings.

“I think Lincecum had the 15th,” Black joked.”

i was gonna be angry...

but then i realized that it’s the all-star game and the giants most likely won’t be involved in the world series, so it’s guarded indifference for me.

I am furious

I am still convinced that Hurdle outmanaged Francona, especially given being down timmy and getting out of 3 tough jams in extras

other than the taking out brian wilson and not using mcann early enough, i thought he did fine. definitely outmanaged francona when it came to pitchers, starting with picking more starters on his team.

it’d have sucked if we lost to a home run, but at least it would have been fair – but instead we lose to an umpire calling the runner safe just because they all wanted the game to be over with and were worried about Francona having to pitch Kazmir

I directed a lot of anger towards in him here, but I really do feel bad for him. Especially since I’d read that article about how his dad really wanted him to play in the AS game at Yankee Stadium. D:
