Wait, how is it Bochy's fault they didn't score?

Yeah, it’s stupid to take out Ishikawa for various reasons, but it doesn’t really decrease their chances at scoring. I blame the Giants’ offense usual ineptitude.

The Giants’ offense usual ineptitude is kind of a constant that can't really be helped at this point.

But Bochy’s slavish, slobbering devotion to lefty-righty mojo…
 ~ Tells TI no one expects him to hit lefties (how has he done vs. lefties in the minors? are there any records on that?)
 ~ Tells TI that Bochy has no confidence in him
 ~ Takes away an opportunity for TI to gain a little more experience vs. lefties
 ~ Takes away a better opportunity to use Aurilia as a PH for Correia, or later in the game
 ~ Begs the question: Just because TI bats LEFTY and Aurilia bats RIGHTY, is that the ***ONLY*** consideration for determining who should have batted in that situation????//7

"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.'

Bizarre; there’s like a 30 second delay on CSN+
