He (with some assistance) held the doggers to two runs, he was shaky at first, from his new wind-up or whatever, but then got it together in about the third. I think it was 46 pitches for the first two innings. Managed to get the big outs when he needed them (seems like this is a big difference from last year for the team as a whole) and all of a sudden, he had put in 7 innings. To say "quality start" doesn't seem to do justice.Zonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7941261488380355005.post-44946237117146987012010-07-31T11:04:40.358-07:002010-07-31T11:04:40.358-07:00Huff was spectacular in all ways.

His throw on the fabulous relay was good but Sanchez unleashed a rocket. Kinda too bad Torres dropped that deep fly...he got to it. Guess I expect evrything to be an out around him.<br />Anytime you make the last out of an inning at third you have made a HUGE mistake. If you bat second, it is doubly stupid.<br />Using JSanchez like that was sorta wacked. I quickly remembered why he isn't a reliever already. Why haven't we bought Ohman or somebody by now? Picking up decent relievers is one of the few things that Sabean does pretty well. We have an entire month before the rosters expand and besides, who do we bring up? Hinshaw? We must make a move.JC Parsonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00666659454815710731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7941261488380355005.post-89823937826479845832010-07-31T10:16:33.394-07:002010-07-31T10:16:33.394-07:00Great win.

Huff had a monster game, and that was a great throw from RF to FSanchez as well as a great catch in LF. (I thought Furcal had a triple all the way. Took a PERFECT relay by FSanchez to get him.)<br /><br />Winning ugly is still winning. (Good thing we had 6 runs.) Just keep winning!!!<br /><br />And how the hell do the Padres wind up with Ryan Ludwick?M.C.

But yeah, the bullpen is looking pretty skimpy with just Romo there to stop the fire. We can't pull this shit off every night. Screw the big hitter, I want a happy ending (pun very intended). I wish it were cool here like in SF. NJ is humid and hot. Hoping for a cool Saturday. Go Giants!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
