Bengie wins Willie Mac award again (Giants Win)

Posted September 27, 2008 at 12:56 am

After he won the trophy for most inspirational Giant, he hit one of the strangest homers ever — first use of instant replay at a Mays Field game. Fleming and Kuiper were pretty funny about it: “It really messes up your home run call.” “You say ‘It’s a single off the wall’ and 10 minutes later ‘It’s outta here!’” It tied the game …

Bochy, Krukow hate reality (Bleeding Black & Orange)

Posted April 26, 2008 at 10:52 am

Some concepts in the world get examined by humans, tested and then logical conclusions can be reached.  The ground shakes because giant plates of rock are moving under the earth’s surface.  Smoking give you lung cancer.  Ingesting too much cholesterol increases your risk for a heart attack.  These things have been shown by the formulation [...]

New Rules (Bay City Ball)

Posted April 15, 2008 at 9:21 am

To borrow a page from Real Time with Bill Maher, I’ve decided to enact some ‘New Rules’, Giants style.
New Rule, for the love of god stop playing Rich Aurilia. I don’t care if he has great career numbers against Randy Johnson, he looks completely done and after last season, who could argue the opposite? Aurilia [...]

4/14/08: Err-izona (El Lefty Malo)

Posted April 14, 2008 at 11:11 pm

Giants 5, D-Backs 4: Watching on the free MLB.tv tonight, I saw two of the best at-bats I’d seen all year. First was Bengie Molina in the seventh inning. One out, a run already in, and the go-ahead run on…

Giants go back to being embarrassing (Giants Win)

Posted April 11, 2008 at 11:13 pm

The Cards hammered the Orange and Black tonight, 8-2. It was Barry Zito’s third loss of the year. I heard Mike Krukow say on the postgame show last night that Zito’s command had improved in his last game with his fastball getting up to 87 mph, but the only way he’s going to win a game is on those rare days when the Giants’ bats …

Lincecum Shots (Almost EEEEEE!)

Posted May 7, 2007 at 7:52 pm

Posted today, mostly written yesterday:
Mike Krukow said before tonight’s game that he expected Tim Lincecum either to get rocked in the first inning of his major league debut or to strike out the side on nine pitches. Therefore, when Phillies leadoff hitter Jimmy Rollins took an 0-1 pitch for a ball, I knew that meant it was time to go “Uh-oh.” Rollins ended up nudging …
