I can see tomorrow's headline:
“Cain allows 1 ER and K’s 8 in 7 innings, still loses”
44-61
Adopted Giant: Daryl Maday - Just got promoted to CT
How 'bout "umpire crew tarred and feathered by raging Giants fans"
(I think it has a nicer ring to it)
¿Julio is tourist in San Francisco? Harper's Bizarre!
I have full confidence in Omar to get a rally started.

Omar will get on base, then get picked off idiotically.
To make up for lack of GIDP

This is going to be one of those games where the Seagate Drive of the Game is a hit by the opposing team.

Matt Cain
I’d hate to be him
I only have a signature because I recognize everyone else by their sigs, not their usernames..
Well, the lack of run support and crushing losses must hurt, but I think I could probably salve that pain if I made four million bucks a year to work for two hours every fifth day half the year.
Proud member of the Adopt-a-Giant program (Aaron Rowand)
No,
just cuz he sucks so much

it’s funny how one game in a Dodger uniform is enough to make me hate a player’s guts forever and ever.
Matt Cain: He'll save children, but not the Dodger children.
i already disliked jason johnson a little bit just cuz i once had a fantasy team so bad i had to use him. as for eternally hating him, hes sorta the most mundane pitcher ever so i think ill just hate him the rest of my life and forget about him after that.

rafael rodriguez
when is rafael rodriguez’s first minor league game for the Giants?
he’s the six foot five year old 16 year old from the Dominican Republic that they spent 2.2. million dollars to sign.
It’d be nice to see BMoney show up in the 9th.

Broxton has already thrown 4 pitches
He’ll be tired.

I like how the ads for tomorrow’s game make it sound like the Giants are the contenders and the Dodgers are the spoiler team.
Matt Cain: He'll save children, but not the Dodger children.
So that’s where Bochy gets his information.

Memo to Rowand
The Dodgers are pitching, so they’re using the real strike zone again.

Or does it seem like the Dodgers, and the whole LA area in general seem to have no respect for the game nowadays? The way they play is just wrong.
