Giants win game, World Series chances improve
by Grant Brisbee on Mar 3, 2010 3:56 PM PST
Email
PrintQuick, non-serious thoughts:
- Brian Wilson has apparently lost his closer's job, as he came into the game in the fifth inning. I can't believe the Giants would do that.
- Lincecum was a lock to start Opening Day, but even that's in doubt now. If he can only go one inning in his starts, he'll put a lot of stress on the bullpen. This reminds me of his early struggles last year, and we all know that he didn't recover from that.
- Buster Posey has real problems with balls that hit the backstop on the fly. Look out, Fresno. If he can't catch pitches six feet above his head, maybe he does need more seasoning.
- Aubrey Huff's home run proves he should be the cleanup hitter, and...wait, he really is the cleanup hitter? Well, that's not funny.
- The offense, if it maintained an eight-run-per-game pace, would shatter every team offensive record in the books. Not bad for a team that most of you haters said was "awful", "repugnant","abominable", "ugly", "horrific", "ghastly", "dreadful", "abominable", "appalling", and "depressing." You were all wrong.
- I don't know Ricky Orta, but I don't like him. Thomas Neal is probably writing the same thing on his blog right now.
It was pretty danged nice to listen to some baseball again, even if there isn't anything meaningful to take from it.

Well, Mr. Grant, the Giants only managed 8 runs because they went to extra innings. They clearly won’t keep up that pace unless they go to extra innings every game.

So what was the story with the KNBR streaming coverage? Were they only allowed to do one inning, or did they manage to “sneak in” a bit of coverage before the MLB shut it down? What can we expect for future games on the radio?
Some of it was streamed on KNBR.com. I’m sure that which was, was a mistake (not them sneaking it in). If you expect to listen to a bunch of ST you should get mlb gameday audio. about half of the games are gonna be GDA only, anyways.

I don’t know if you enjoy reading this kind of stuff, but if you liked this movie (Best serious baseball movie ever) than you might enjoy reading Shoeless Joe and Ragtime Baseball
Its been a few years since I read it. As I recall the book filled in nicely some details that were not in the movie, particularly the transcript of Jackon’s testimony. He really was more victim than perpetrator. Another piece of collateral damage caused by “the business” of baseball.
Glad somebody besides me thinks this movie rakes.

I can do a dead-on impersonation of napoleon. Is that something to be proud of? Probably not. But weirdly it’s by far the best impersonation I do

Hey, apparently Russel Martin gained 20 pounds this offseason. He must have done a whole hell of a lot of sucking it to take in that many calories.
I don't know about that, to the groin.

And swallowing.
too much?
The Giants Way™"If anybody deserves credit for this year’s turnaround it’s these two people, Brian and Bruce," Neukom said. "The encouraging thing is we think we’re back to playing baseball the way it ought to be played."
I can’t imagine that swallowing too little is what got him to this point.
