Fun with numbers

Aubrey Huff's two-homer game was the twelfth of his career, and he has 222 lifetime bombs.

Baseball Musings notes that Kelly Johnson's cycle was the 146th since 1957, and only the 23rd for a losing team.

Andres Torres' five triples put him in fourth place on the league leaderboard, tied with three others.

Only three teams in the NL have a winning record on the road. Can you name them?

The Puds are 26-20 on the road, Cincinnati 23-22, SF 26-25. Ding ding ding ding ding. What's my prize?(Credit to Google Search)
A dynamic start for JSanchez last night. Ten Ks in only 5 innings, offset by 5 BBs and 4 hits. He left with a 2-1 lead which ended up as a ND due to all the scoring which came later.
Enough cannot be said about Aubrey Huff. The self-proclaimed "best athlete on the team" has been wonderful all year, with a fabulous personality to boot. I hope he remains a Giant for a long time.
