I have an explanation for Nate:
Bochy and Nate actually fell in during spring training, but then, during the final exhibition games, they had a terrible breakup. Bochy then went to the doctor from Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind, and had Nate erased from this memory.

Note for Bochy:
Wilson does not mind coming in during the 8th inning if it means the game. Get this into your ginormous cranium.
I don’t understand why Bochy continually pulls Affeldt for Howry. Why does he think Howry is better than Affeldt? He certainly isn’t basing that on last year’s performances.

the most hilarous part about this
is that what does playing “the match ups” mean to a MLB manager. It means LOOKING UP WHAT TO DO ON A FREAKIN’ CHART.
I mean, could there be anything more braindead? I guess “doing nothing”.
The saddest thing about this, is that it’s true.

what an exciting Wilson-time.
Top of the 8th – I was hating Howry (hungover from his last “set-up” appearance). Anxious, jittery. Me that is. Wilson threw three balls and then three strikes.
Then Torres popped one out, and in the 9th Wilson was scary, then scarier, then the DP and the K. So nice. It’s why we watch/listen.

While I don't bet
I did reach a peace accord with my expectations for the Giants yesterday. Basically, I told myself that if they suck this year, that’s okay, because they are still giving me a lot to look forward to in years to come, and frankly, I’m used to them sucking.
Of course, they had to go WIN one after that.

Plus, trouble with the low breaking ball isn’t the end of the world. A lot of MLB pitchers can’t spot that pitch. And I think TI was forced into swinging at it by the ump’s low strike zone.

I'm waiting for a cell phone pic
of him banging Alyssa Milano on a bed of money. He has the Giants hat, she has the Dodgers jersey, and it has the caption of “FUCK LA!”
Actually, a sombrero. He should wear a sombrero.

If anyone can get a Joe Martinez pic, I’d love to see it. What exactly does getting hit in the dome by a liner look like when you’re going to be out for months.
Jonathan Sanchez is the man. Thank Jesus for El Guapo.
Joe Martinez
You can’t really see it that well – it’s from the TV interview they did before the game. It looked a lot worse in person and closer up. I thought about taking a picture of him when he was signing for us, but I thought it would be really weird and kind of insensitive. So this is the best pic I could get.

it knocked out his ability to speak too?!

I wonder if they put those TV interviews somewhere on the CSN website…
His eye did look bad, and it’s been a week…
Heme oxygenase!
Joe Martinez: My fingers are crossed and my palms are together for you.
When it's all said and done, America will be remembered for three things: The Bill of Rights, jazz, and baseball.
Ok so if the Giants lose tomorrow I think there may be something to this...
so far this year they are 3-0 with me there and 0-7 without me. We may need to do a car wash to raise funds for season tickets or something.

The man really likes Rock Band and working out

So… we won. How can I turn this pessimistic?
I’d like to complain about Sanchez’s K/BB, or whatever, but I can’t bring myself to do it. Since I tuned out after the 4th inning, how did he look? Did he manage to wiggle is way out of some stuff, or was he dominating?
Dirty
After giving up a double to start the game—which was smoked— he went on a solid run, something like 18 of 20 batters…they couldn’t do a lot with him, although there were 3-4 hit right at people.
From my seat, a couple of the Dbacks outfield flys looked like they were going deep, but all but one to FLewis died well short of the wall.
WTF? came to mind when Bochy pulled him, but his control was kind of faltering in the 7th..
I am still not sure how Upton’s stayed in the park.

After the fourth he was getting his pitch count down, 7 in the 5th and 10 in the 6th if I remember right.

I will now watch all Jonathan Sanchez starts outside on the porch, smoking a cigar, drinking bourbon & listening to the Clash on my ipod. Yes, I will make this sacrifice.

Goofus on the scoreboard?
Not sure if it was mentioned in the GameDay, or if it really was him, but it looked like a non-dancing Goofus on the JumboTron last night. Was that you wearing a bright orange knit cap? It was somewhere behind the screen (I know that’s approx where you sit).
They say some players get out of bed hitting; Pablo Sandoval doesn't wait that long
