Started out with wiring money to the IRS. Then spent time with Sallie Mae on the phone because my duaghter is 35 days late on her student loans that I am cosigner on (dropped another Grand there). Attended a work meeting from 7 PM to 9:15 PM while monitoring the game on my BB the whole time. Get in the car to come home and hear the G’s go ahead on Scott’s homer (yea ! ), only to get home and have them lose (boo !)

I thought the correct procedure for a rally American Historical figure was to post him only when the Giants are at bat, but perhaps it would have helped if I’d continued to draw on his powers into the Dodgers half of the 8th.

Technically, yes
Saves can be received in these situations:
- Pitcher is the one to get the last out of the game, and his team is up by three runs.
- Tying run is on the on-deck circle, and the pitcher comes in to get the out(s).
- Pitcher goes three innings to finish a game.

I’ve seen Firefly and it’s cool, but slavering Whedon fanboys/girls are annoying as hell. I’ll probably never watch Buffy because of them.

I’ve gotten to the point where I can’t stand Joss Whedon. I have serious disagreements with some of his most significant storytelling philosophies, and I have some real misgivings about the way his HEY GUYZ I"M AN AWESOME FEMINIST AND STUFF EXCEPT FOR ALL THE CONTRADICTIONS AND JUNK BUT I"M SO COOL FOR IT ANYWAY!!! has developed over the years.

burriss is making some pretty velezian errors of late.

Where to start...
Uribe and Aurilia were starting. Velez was used as a defensive replacement. If the game had gone to extra innings we would have seen a pitcher most likely strapping on catcher gear.
The most egrigious would be letting Howry single handedly lose the game instead of pulling him in the 8th when he ran into to trouble, or at the beginning of the 9th to stop the bleeding.
Theres more but it just makes me upset.

Really? He’s hit .280 before.. Usually .280 hitters have some slumps.
“Pitchers seemed to have caught on to his game.”
I haven’t sensed that at all.
I really just see a guy who isn’t seeing the ball like he normally does.
A lot of the pitches that I see him popping up and grounding out to, are pitches that he hit hard last year.

Like when the Giants dished out the dough to sign such notable first round picks as Jason Grilli, Steve Soderstrom, and Joe Fontenot?
They’ve been doing a much better job of drafting lately. But just having high draft picks and spending money on ’em hardly guarantees success.

I love pitching but a recent article by Thomas Bowell of the Washington Post wrote selecting a pitcher with Top 5 is very risky. Safer to grab a top notch bat.

Kruk gave the kiss of death
Wilson throws a couple of strikes to get back to 2-2 on Loney, and then Kruk lays down the evil comment: “He can miss one off the plate now, he’s got a pitch to waste.”
Kruk, you idiot. Brian Wilson with the bases loaded and a full count only knows how to do one thing… throw ball four. You know that, Meat.

Journey
From Baggs’ blog:
A great treat for me today. I got to meet legendary "Journey" singer Steve Perry. He’s a huge Giants fan and attends a lot of games at Dodger Stadium. I was happy to discover he’s also a tremendously nice person.
I asked him what he thought about the Dodgers appropriating "Don’t Stop Believin’" as their rally cry in the eighth inning. They play it every home game and the fans have begun singing along, just like "Sweet Caroline" in Boston. It’s kind of funny. Those fans aren’t aware that that powerful tenor voice blaring over the speakers belongs to a die-hard Giants fan.
"Yeah, well," Perry said, "I never thought I’d be the rally monkey for the Dodgers."
Considering the Dodgers tied the game in the eighth and won it in the ninth, I think they’ve gone beyond the fair-use clause.

Classic. Thanks for posting that.
“Don’t Stop Believing” has been my favorite Journey song since Escape was released, but that doesn’t mean I like the overplaying.

Bochy FAIL
Starting Lineup – Aurilia and Uribe?
Starting Pitcher – 115 pitches after some real stressful innings.
Pinch Runner – Torres for Aurilia for Ishikawa, after Burriss for Sandoval and Uribe moves to Third. I guess this is fine – they were playing for a tying run, but it combines with the next…
Pinch Hitter – Affeldt got a hit, but if you are going to sub in Burriss for Uribe at 2B, and Ishikawa in at first after ponch running for Aurila, why not let Ishikawa bat for the pitcher you are taking out anyways? WTF!
Relief – Howry gives up to runs in the 8th and struggles through the inning? Take him out? nah. Heck, let him pitch the 9th too!
Defensive Sub – Velez.
IBB – Open base! Force out at home!! Leaving Howry in after the lead off single!!
Bochy Fail = Fire his ass.

So...
I have a laptop but my wireless router ain’t working well. Thus, I watched the entirety of last night’s game on TV without logging on here at all. And I discovered that: a) this team is depressing the fuck out of me, b) Bochy needs to be fired ASAP and c) it’s perversely enjoyable to watch a game like last night’s and try to imagine what everyone on this site is posting as it happens. Sort of a Theatre of the Mind thing.
