I was at that game

When the Giants lost 1-0 to the Dbacks in 18 innings. They stopped selling beer in the 7th inning and I was cold and hungry by the 12th inning. By the time the game ended it was 2AM.

I hated Ryan Vogelsong that day.

I was there too. I took BART out, so I had to wander around downtown San Francisco for a couple of hours before BART started running to the East Bay again. I peed on the side of a building at one point, so that was fun.
