PrintColorado Rockies at San Francisco Giants, Sep 23, 2008 7:15 PM PDT
Part of me wants to think of the final two Lincecum starts as our "playoffs." There should be quite an emotional investment in these games.
Another, smarter, part of me knows that anything remotely in the same zip code of the same region of the Venn diagram that includes the word "playoffs" is something that causes pain to those who follow the San Francisco Giants.
So go Lincecum, and let's leave it at that.

How many pitches do you want Lincecum to throw?
I’d say between 85-95. Don’t push him at the end of the year, let him go 5 to try and get the win.

Jimenez has an ERA of 0.93 against the Giants this season. He has an ERA above 5 for all other teams combined.
just wondering?
what’s the ERA of opposing starting pitchers against the Giants compared to against the rest of the league? I’d imagine its a pretty big split

It took me a minute to figure out you meant the Mexican-ish chain Chipotle, not chipotle pepper. Which is a wonderful thing. Though I don’t know if any of the restaurant’s menu items actually use it as an ingredient.

Asshole downstairs neighbors update
Becuase you’re all dying to know: our asshole downstairs neighbors have been sending our landlord OMG INDIGNANT emails again about their delusional notion that we’re loud. Why? Because our 2-year old was screaming his head off for a while in the middle of the night Friday. Why was he doing that? Because he woke up at midnight with croup, leading to a 4-hours emergency room visit.
I bet they’re Dodgers fans. Fuckers.

It really really pissed me off when they had their whole postgame celebration thing
after the last game and Derek Jeter said they have the best fans ever. Do you have any idea how FUCKING easy it is to root for a team that wins a minimum of 95 games a year? Their idea of a “hard time” is not making the playoffs. And they won’t stop bitching until they make it next year. Seriously, fuck the Yankees, fuck their fans, fuck Arod, fuck Derek Jeter, fuck George Steinbrenner, fuck his kids, and years in advance before they take over the team, fuck their kids too.
HOW CAN THEY DESTROY AMERICA LIKE THIS?!

I like Tim Lincecum.
He strikes people out for the Giants.

On a somewhat related note....
It was interesting to hear that Matt Williams was in attendance today at the ballpark, strange considering the Dbacks affiliation.
Uncle Sabes...How much longer til we get there?
Still bothers me though...
that Will the Thrill wont show his face.

Ishikawa isn't in the lineup because...
His wife is in labor.

I remember my dad telling me about going to a game in the 80s where Bob Knepper was pitching while his wife was in labor. Apparently they put updates on her progress on the scoreboard throughout the game!

Too cliche.

I take partial credit for all that's happened.
Molina singled, Richie walked, and Rowand doubled all while I was stuffing my face with Salt & Vinegar chips.
Of course once the bag was finished Velez hit the FC.

wtf, yahoo got confused.
It says Velez grounded into a double play and that Omar’s flyout somehow scored a run and ended the inning.
Matt Cain: He'll save children, but not the Dodger children.
PABLO SANDOVAL AM STEAL DEATH, DESTROYER OF WORLDS.
wait how did Rowand score on a third out fly ball?

woooooo
someone besides us walked the pitcher! Although iI guess it could be worse…we could be the Mets…
And I’d rather be the Mets – I’m old enough to remember then winning the World Series.

well in that case you'd rather be anyone else besides the cubs...
but I’m saying at least we don’t give up grand slams to pitchers.
it’s not used to the number of giants hitters in an inning, give it a break
Bill Mueller? I expect at least A-Rod type numbers from my son, Conor Gillaspie
Kit Kat bar sounds great right now.
