Posted August 25, 2008 at 6:52 amBe still, my beating heart! The Giants have won 5-games in a row. Before you raise the “Playoffs or bust!” banner, playing the Padres might have had something to do with our mini-streak. The Pads lineup isn’t bad, they’ve got some very nice hitters in Giles, Gonzalez, Gerut, Kouzmanoff, and Headley but their pitching staff, [...]

Posted August 22, 2008 at 6:23 amThe Giants won another game in their last at-bat yesterday when Manny Burriss scampered home to score the winning run after Marlins closer, Kevin Gregg, uncorked a wild pitch in the dirt that got away from Paul Lo Duca John Baker — sweet, sweet, Schadenfreude. Who says you need to hit to win games? In [...]

Posted August 20, 2008 at 11:28 amBrian Sabean tells the SF Chron’s Henry Schulman that he doesn’t think there’s a need to rush the best prospects (Tim Alderson and Madison Bumgarner) to pitch at MLB level.

Posted July 31, 2008 at 6:53 amIs Jonathan Sanchez gassed?

Posted July 25, 2008 at 1:45 pmFor the first time in 2 months, the Giants won a series at home vs. the Nationals, and like always, it was the pitching that lead the way. Barry Zito made his first start of the second half and it was a success. I know I shouldn’t be saying that when y…

Posted July 25, 2008 at 9:28 amMatt Cain delivering a gem against the Nats is like finding gas under $4 a gallon: sure it’s kind of exciting, but then you realize how low your barometer is.
Either way, the Giants sweep the entire season series from the Natsogoods, evening the rec…
