Conspiracy Warning:

I’m thinking Bud doesn’t like all the pitching this year, so he’s tell the Umps to squeeze the zone and make it harder on the pitchers to have a quiet game. Although Sanchez’ inconsistency i.e. effective wildness didn’t help him yesterday, same with Bautista today.

Leake is responsible for the runner on 1st and 3rd. If any runs that score are unearned after he leaves does he still get the loss?

I don’t have ANY Romo hate. I’m a bigger fan than anyone here. By saying the league have him figured out doesn’t mean that he’s horrible. It just means that teams know to not swing at the slider. And, once you eliminate that, he really doesn’t have much else. But, obviously if you look at the numbers, he’s still able to get the job done most of the time.

I got nothing but love for Sergio. However, I think that the league has read the book on him. That’s it.

Because he’s getting good pitches to hit. He isn’t swinging at balls and pitches that are strikes that he can’t drive he doesn’t swing. Patience is waiting for a good pitch to hit, not by taking 5 pitches first.

Gameday must be broken

It says the Giants have 11 hits and 7 walks but still only lead 5-4. That can’t be right.
