Longest in franchise history, best since 2009 Yankees (18) and you have to go back to 1913 to find better. And they went 6-11. So defense matters, but only if you pitch and hit!<br />M.C.

T...I remain highly optimistic for October baseball. The Giants have never been good as front-runners. I don't know why they've stunk since the ASG, partly it was injuries and too many minor leaguers in the lineup day after day.<br />But I like what I'm seeing now, despite a lot of close losses to good teams.Brother Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18162500140573910451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7941261488380355005.post-21717513464819211812016-09-03T17:49:54.391-07:002016-09-03T17:49:54.391-07:00Thanks, MC.

Except that the guy reached out & nubbed it wide of 1B. Belt &, especially, Romo, made a miraculous play, & I celebrated - except that the Ump called 'Safe'. Luckily, the Giants appealed & got the very, very important out. Romo really deserved it, because had the guy completely fooled. It was really nice to see Romo pitch like Romo.<br /><br />Good win, although our batting is still crap.<br /><br />Get some runs & win tomorrow, Giants!!!!!Ronnoreply@blogger.com
