Who was the guy they pitched to who grounded out? He whAAA’d so pitifully afterward…
And the first pitch to Barry the next time the Blanks played the Giants is STILL in orbit.

I think it was Brent Mayne and if I remember right, he hit the ball on the nose but right at the RF. Definitely a line drive.

Livan starts the game
Now we get Jason Grilli.
What, they got Nathan Bump warming up for a possible eleventh inning?
Well, you did see our unholy trifecta of suck
Livan/Rusch/The Viz.
Purple Row's resident entertaining pessimistic asshole. Somehow the incarnation of crusty goo. Is this a good thing? Who knows.
From La Wik
“In 1999, Grilli was a key component of a mid-season trade that brought Liván Hernández to the Giants, and sent Grilli and pitcher Nate Bump to the Florida Marlins.”
Oh, all right.
Missed that one. But if you’re discussing crappy pitchers, we got lotsa those.

I was driving from Flag to Phoenix and DXing the AM and found KNBR.
Thinking I had to stay at a higher altitude to keep reception I pulled over to listen to the end of the game. Which seemed to never arrive…
