I think they’re going with the double play RBI move rather than the Ishi K move.
Everybody loves money
I thought we decided that wasn't an RBI.
"Just another ahahahaha... laugher."
bok bok bok... BOCOCK!
Well, it’s not, but the run does score.

Add another Run, without an RBI
The Giants way
co-dad of IshikaBOOM w/AfDC.
Ishikawa, let the boy hit against lefties.
Look how low we have defined success.
Good job Richie. I guess.
Osiris, lord of the dead, and relief pitcher for the San Francisco Giants.
Ishi
still has game’s only RBI.

Ishikawa, let the boy hit against lefties.
You know, if all you want is a run in that case, putting in an automatic douple play hitter isn’t a bad idea.
Bruce Bochy would like you to look at the career numbers and stop complaining.
hopefully

If we finish this off, I understand that a win is a win but to do it in this fashion is not encouraging at all. It’s nice to see our pitching stepping up but how did our offense digress from last season?

Too bad the Giants can’t play the Diamondbacks every day. They would have the most dominating pitching in baseball.
