Wow
6 RBI day for Prince Fielder, 5 RBI day for Ryan Braun.
Not that I’m saying RBIs are a good stat. Just a comment on the game.

Adopted Giant: Fred Lewis, who can still draw a walk.
I think six RBIs are worth noting.
Bruce Bochy would like you to look at the career numbers and stop complaining.
Or 11 combined RBIs by back-to-back hitters.

Barry Zito, why don’t you come to your senses?
They’ve been swinging for fences for so long now
Can’t throw a hard one
I know you’ve got seven seasons
We folks that are payin’ you
Might hurt you somehow
Don’t you throw the hanging curveball, boy
They’ll beat you on Fox cable
We see your awful starts on all our TV sets
Now it seems to me, some fat cash
Has been laid upon your table
But you only make the balls you throw get wet

Matt Cain and Enchanter, they’re drivin’ you home
Reporters, McCoven well, we’re just some people talkin’
We’re pissin’ and moaning ‘cause your head’s made of stone
Do you always suck in the summer time?
Why don’t you stick it where the sun don’t shine
It’s hard to smell your stench across the bay
You’re losin’ all the time, it blows
Ain’t it funny how those meatballs fly away?
Barry Zito, why don’t you come to your senses?
‘Cause you’re just as dense as a rock-filled crate
Just stop complainin’, because cleat-chasers still love you
You’d better let them DFA you, before it’s too late

bring back the personal catcher
Randy Winn is going to catch that. And he'll do it real classy-like too.
I remember Aurilia flailing in Game 7 vs Lackey
BB-ref confirms it: 0-for-4, 2 Ks, 12 pitches/11 strikes.
Way to go Bochy
I just joined the thread so may have missed it. Someone explain to me why Aurilia is in there.

Uribe is hurt, I don’t know if Sandoval is ready to play 3rd again or not.

Uribe has a strained hamstring, and I guess Pablo isn’t quite ready to move to 3B.

Maybe I'm a bit behind
but who’s this Thomas Neal guy in San Jose? Since, you know, it’s a better topic than what’s on the tv right now.
starting LF, circa 2011 or late 2010

Could he play second, circa Tuesday?

i am so tired of the giants making average pitchers look like all stars.

Lackey was pretty darn good
I don’t know what’s going on with him so far this year.

If he does this next time he pitches, then we should start worrying…
