With our staff, 5 is usually enough for a win. The frustrating part was that 5 runs was not a good showing! The Astros gave up 10 hits, hit 3 batters, and made 3 errors--the Giants had chance after chance with runners on base. Even with 4 GIDP the Giants still left 8 men on!!!! We should have scored more runs. We only lost by 2, they had to use their closer, fer chrissakes. Arrgh.<br /><br />Yes, it will be an exciting run here before the Break. I think we'll find out how good we really are. Nothing to be scared of--we knew the NL West would be wide-open, and even if we play poorly we won't fall too far off the pace since none of the other clubs have shown they can "run away with it." At least they haven't yet.M.C.

The segment before the All-Star game is always crucial to contenders but this year's schedule is a real eye catcher. If both Zito and Cain have a bad spell we are screwed... and remember Sanchez looked rough last time...real scared...JC Parsonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00666659454815710731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7941261488380355005.post-25470235450782717922010-06-24T23:53:28.545-07:002010-06-24T23:53:28.545-07:00The lack of a strikeout pitch will keep him from b...The lack of a strikeout pitch will keep him from becoming elite.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
