We need a baseball miracle ninth inning comeback against the worst road team in the league. The fish think that AT&T is their home. Come on Gmen. Bochy's moves tonight (Friday) Make me wonder if he has had a stroke. nomisnalahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08297640472949764321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7941261488380355005.post-77241253756550153812013-06-21T13:01:55.926-07:002013-06-21T13:01:55.926-07:00nominsnala - had the same exact thoughts. And wha...nominsnala - had the same exact thoughts. And what happened to Affeldt's sweeping curve?<br /><br />I guess this is the payback for the walk offs, you get games like this that are just gut punches.<br /><br />I hate the Marlins.

And here is more good news - apparently, Angel Pagan was hurt in Stockton in his rehab start. So he won't be back for awhile. That is OK as long as Blanco continues hitting triples and the new Perez continues being a stud. But it would be better if Perez was hearing those Angelic footsteps behind him.Zonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7941261488380355005.post-2330437614508047752013-06-21T07:09:42.975-07:002013-06-21T07:09:42.975-07:00Yeah, that was a terrible pitch.

I saw them set up there and I thought "just keep it away" but it was too fat and boom! that was the game.<br />M.C.

Unfortunately Jeremy is a streaky pitcher and he will cough it up several times before he gets back on track. Giants blew 3 games this past week when they had late leads, and Affeldt was in the middle of them. We also came back and won a game that Affeldt coughed-up. When he brought Affeldt in, I got a pit in my stomach. First pitch HBP. On Ozuna's hit who was about 2 for his last 23, he had him 0-s on two outside pitches, then he threw one outside where he was clearly looking to take him to right field. I thought, ok now a great time to bust him inside, instead he goes outside again and he lines one, 4 feet in front of Pence. I guess we are not looking for Romo to get a 4 out save. The hitters took a vacation, but still, this game is on Bochy. Although, of course, Affeldt once again will humbly take the blame. We are just giving too many games back that we should have won. That homerun last Friday, to Goldschmidt, was a real bummer. nomisnalahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08297640472949764321noreply@blogger.com
