GAMEBALL and JOKER 07/27 PIRATES at GIANTS

Will have to make it quick as I need to get to sleep. First off hats off to the McCovey Chronicles crowd, nice to meet everyone and sorry if I didn't say hi…. second off…..well
it was a great night at the ball yard……if you weren't there, you should have been….the place was as electric as I have seen in a while…..G-Fans know what's up….you could hear people talking about the Rockies lost all throughout the park…..this was our chance to get back into it……..

GAMEBALL and JOKER 07/27 PIRATES at GIANTS

GAMEBALL

TIMMY

FUCK YEAH…..kid makes me wanna get up and dance…. thankfully I decided some screaming, fist pumps into the air and high fiving strangers was more appropriate….after the Giants put up 4 you knew Tim was going to bring it home……but what we didn't expect was 15 K's and 9 innings, basically taking the team onto his back and bringing it home for the W…….

TIP OF THE CAP :
SUE
I am sure it didn't really feel real until they got home and saw her family and that empty seat next to the dugout….nice tribute, nice patches….all very tasteful……

SABEAN
At the end of the day, I kicked a few tires and I approve of this trade…..period….end of story……Maybe Garko blows chunks and maybe Barnes wins 6 Cy Youngs, but today I will go on the record liking this trade……he got a decent bat with some pop, for a pretty good prospect….. makes sense for both sides…Garko was nothing special to the Indians and Barnes was nothing special to the Giants…..both become pieces in play for the other team…..some people may think the Giants gave up too much, but the Giants needed the deal NOW where the Indians could wait for the offseason…..so if the Giants overpaid a little, that’s just the price of doing business…..and honestly, I thought we would need to give up more than Barnes for a piece like Garko

GIANTS
Timmy on a Monday vs the Pirates draws 40K…..BECAUSE THE $5 tickets……good job Giants, and they got $5 tickets Tuesday Wednesday and $10 tickets for the Phillies Series…..they will come to the game at the drop of the hat if you make it affordable…..times are tough, if the Giants want a packed house, keep running the super deals….heck I got some nice lower box for $58 a pair…..

SANDOVAL
3 Hits including a 2 out double to set up the first run….

TORRES
Triple to plate 2….

MOLINA
Double Sailed over McCutchen's head for the 1st run of the game…..

BONDS
Looking good, and so was the new lady on the arm…..yowza!

VELEZ????
Obviously our new Left Fielder…..and the chopper in the 2nd was just what the doctor ordered……

JOKER

JONES

What the fuck….what a weird 2nd inning…..first Guzman hits a line drive than looked like it was going to castrate Maholm…. the Velez hits a sky high chopper that shorthops through SS Jack Wilson and Guzman gets lucky taking 3rd…….The next hitter Uribe hits a grounder to 3rd, Guzman takes 5 steps and draws a throw to home and then u turns and easily makes it back to 3rd to load the bases……you following me so far???? …..Tim hits into the 5-2 DP and then a wild pitch sets up 2nd and 3rd……..And NOW the fun begins…….Torress hits a ball to Right Center…..RF Garrett Jones closes in, then slows up and looks for McCutchen who is a good 20 feet away…..Garret goes chasing after the ball he shoulda caught in the first place, and Torres ends up with a 2 RBI Triple…..but the play of the game…..a shallow fly to right, hits off Jones Glove, Leg, and Foot and then comes back to the infield to be caught ON THE FLY by 2nd baseman Young…..OUT…..but the umps miss the play and say it hit the ground…..and the official scorer misses it and calls it a hit……wrong on both counts…….

SMACK OF THE STICK :
GUZMAN
Right Handed 1st Baseman???? sorry Jesus……back to Fresno you go…..

BOWKER
Wow that was quick…..guess you can resume your triple crown chase…..

DOWNS
Back to Fresneck, and this time….stay there…..

FRANDSEN
Apparently was the player to be named later, but the Indians decided they hated him too and refused to take him from the Giants

GRABOW
What the hell????? You can't figure out how to replace your divots??? Calling in 47 people from the grounds crew to rebuild the mound???? Just fucking scrap some dirt over with your shoe and step on it…..or are you too special to get dirty…..fucker…..

BATS
Good feelings…..but really the Giants Bats only scored 1 run …..the other 3 came on assists from the Pirates……better get out of that fuck soon kids…..
