GAMEBALL and JOKE

GAMEBALL
TIM
HELL YEAH……slowing down???? Hard to follow up on that Cy Young????
Yeah…..tell it to someone else, as Timmy dispatched the A's offense with ease notching his 2nd career shutout….and all with a decent pitch count…Man, this kid has really learned how to pitch ……..And not only was Timmy dealing on the mound, he had the clutch at bat with an RBI single to give the Giants the lead…..Thats 3 RBI'S for Tim, which is more than the rest of the pitching staff combined……
Timmy also graced the cover of Sports Illustrated kids, which is now the 57th magazine cover Tim has appeared on since last year….strange enough, Tim wasn't their first choice…….but unfortunately Randy wasn't photogenic enough…..
TIP OF THE CAP :
NATE to MANNY to MONEY
HOT DAMN!!
You could put that on an endless loop, and I could sit and watch that all fucking day……
A fucking rifle shot from Nate on the money, a slick relay and a strike from Burriss and Kennedy had no chance…….get this, from the time the ball HIT Nate's mitt, until the time it hit Molina's mitt…..4.75 Seconds……which basically means, if Molina was trying to score on a Sac Fly on a ball hit to Nate deep in triple's alley…..they would have probably have him NAILED……..
ROWAND
Mr Leadoff Magic did it again, this time with a 57 hopper through the hole into Left for 2 runs…..
PANDA
HOLY FUCKING SHIT
You won't believe me, so…..
Get out your Tivo…….Get out your stopwatch……..
Time Panda down the line on that bunt in the 5th….
3.7 seconds……and that is rounding up…..I timed it 5 times…..I am getting 3.66, 3.68 etc…….and that sneak attack bunt and take out slide at 2nd got the Giants started in the 5th…..
RAJAI
Hey…good luck…..did like this kid in his short time here…..and just looking at him reminds me that at least the Pirates Brass make the Giants Brass look good
PITTBURGH
Congrats on your Stanley Cup…after all the years of suffering with the Pirates, glad you have something to celebrate…and thanks again for Bonds and Schmidt and taking Morris off our hands….and in the Spirit of the 1989 reunion…..Thanks for Big Daddy and Caveman, both keys to the 1987 and 1989 pitching staffs……By the way, how are Mackey Sasser and Jeff Robinson working out?
JOKER
RENTERIA
Good god….this guy is the slowest shortstop I have seen since….well…..Since whoever we had before Omar…….little range, average arm….you better have a good bat…….Well not tonight, as Edgar played the role of rally killer with an inning ending double play to kill the rally in the 5th…..and the stopwatch???? Your eyes did not deceive you……a painfully slow…..4.6…….that's 42 year old BONDS Territory……not good for a 33 year old shortstop…….(of course, Molina and Sweeney would kill for that speed)
SMACK OF THE STICK :
CAVEMAN/ DON ROBINSON
What the HELL????
Now did ANYONE EXPECT Caveman to be bigger than BIG DADDY HIMSELF????
Two time Giant's Silver Slugger could come out of Pen or from the Rotation……and even had 7 Homers in 247 Giants AB's…..
BTW, has anyone seen Brett Butler recently? I think Robinson may have eaten him…..
CABRERA
And round 1 of the Battle of Columbia…..goes to the OTHER Slow shortstop…..the one with the fat ass contract……nice dive on that 2 RBI 57 hopper from Rowand
MAZZARO
Man, that is one nasty ass sinker……95+ with movement in on a Right Hander……reminds me of Kevin Brown……How the hell does Beane keep pulling up pitchers from the low minors just to have them hit the ground running….it's NOT that EASY…….So A's fans, get your Mazzaro Jersey's now…..at least you will get 4-5 years out of it before he is traded
BILLY BEANE
The Giants are last in the National League in Walks……and just kicked your ass
