GAMEBALL and JOKER--> GIANTS at A'S 05/21

GAMEBALL

TORRES

A popular guy these days on the Gameball write up, Torres continued his hot hand with a pair of doubles that were just SMOKED……throw in an RBI on the stat sheet and that’s just about all it takes to get the GAMEBALL on a night devoid of Giants highlights……

TIP OF THE CAP :
PANDA
Couple knocks and looks like he just might be heating up…..

HUFF
Ahead of Pablo in Average, On Base, and Slugging…..which is just as much a testament to Huff turning it around into a decent season, as it is a statement to the poor start the Panda is off to……

DALLAS
Yeah yeah, tip the cap again…..we get it…… but hey, how often do perfect games come around……

RAJAI
Think back….. the April 2008…. the Giants put Rajai on waivers to find room for Burriss on the active roster….well a lot has happened since then…….Burriss and Bocock at SS???......Always liked Rajai, hope he does well…..at least 156 games a year…..

JOKER

ZITO

Seems like one of two things happen when a player returns from whence they came… they either kick fucking ass like Torrelabla seems to do to us 12 times a year……or the choke like David Carradine on a Saturday night…….and Mr Unicorn falls into the second category…..even during the dream season he is having he just can't get over the hump…….and by the way, that whole Zito in A's uniform montage……2 things pop into mind….1st.. he got old……2nd….nice to see that JOKER in a different uniform……

SMACK OF THE STICK :
BOCHY
Rowand stays in the leadoff spot with a bat colder than a witches tit…..while Torres sits at the bottom of the lineup smoking more than Timmy on a Jamacian vacation……dude….this isn’t a set and forget offense…..you cobble together your best hitters in a group hoping to maximize benefit…….8 hits and 1 run……put Torres at the top of that lineup…..or even 9th in that "2nd leadoff" spot and you probably get another run……2 hits from the 3, 4 and 8 hole……what the fuck…..

WEGNER
Apparently, was found dressed as Peter Pan and molesting collies earlier today…..hey, I don't make the news……I just report it……

CHANNEL 11
Miller, Krukow, and Fosse???? Man, that is a forced combo.......A Hall of Famer….a Gamer….and Pete Rose's speedbump……

(The fine print: There will be cussing and bad taste. This is written with the heat of the moment feel you may have during the game, with rational though sprinkled in now and then. This is entertainment folks, sure there is a lot of truth and I am a genius, but this is all about having a laugh and enjoying the ride…….now lets go heckle Jeff Kent in when he gets inducted to Cooperstown..)
