Middle of the second, 0-0.
0-0 after two innings.
AZ strikes first, Stephen Drew solo HR. 1-0 after two and a half.
Pablo Sandoval reaches on an error on homer-man Stephen Drew. Man on first to lead off the inning.
Two on, one out for the Giants, bot 3.
Rancho Ardiendo for the Giants!
Eugenio Velez, last night's hero, is also today's hero. 2-1 Giants and they're still batting.
With the bases juiced, Eugenio Velez doubles to only score two (Aaron Rowand is slow, apparently). 2-1 Giants.
This feels so weird to root for the Giants. I mean, short of Fred Lewis and Randy Winn, I don't recognize any of these names.
Bengie Molina strands a man at second to end the fourth inning
Not sure why they pulled Dan Haren after four innings of work. Still 2-1, two out in the bottom of the fifth with a man on first.
Hennessey's at 90+ pitches in the sixth, with only a one-run lead
Former Dodger Dave Roberts with a leadoff walk in the 6th, and Randy Winn follows with a double. Men at second and third, no out, 6th inning against Juan Cruz; 2-1 Giants.
Juan Cruz is horrible
The Robin Ventura Massacre! Nice avatar, damon!
2-1 in the top of the ninth, but Chris Snyder takes a leadoff walk. Didn't Brian Wilson blow the save just last night?
Ah yes, Wilson did. He gave up a two-run home run to allow AZ to tie the game.
One out, man on second (Alex Romero PR).
Tony Clark walks on four straight balls, none of which were close. Men on first and second w/one out.
Stephen Drew flies to right for the second out...Chris Young at the plate with two on and one RISP
Brian Wilson blows the save, for the second straight game!!!
AZ takes a 3-2 lead on a two-out triple delivered by Chris Young, who was batting .245.
There's the Giants we know!
He isn't my favorite Brian Wilson anyway...you know and i know the Giants can win this game on walk-off fashion.
Thank you, Brian Wilson. 3-2 AZ in the 9th.
Help us, Eugenio Velez, you're our only hope.
Dunn pops out to end the inning, but the two-run frame could hurt the Giants.
Giants bat Sandoval Molina Ishikawa in the ninth.
Molina gets a one-out single, and is substituted with Ryan Rohlinger.
Who are these guys?
ishikawa makes at least one out...
...oh, Rohlinger on second with two out and big-money Aaron Rowand up...
A Rowand HR here would be pretty sweet.
Are we rooting for the dare I say GIANTS!!!
It looks like Lyon is not throwing anything good to Rowand.
Rowand walks.
A Eugenio Velez HR here would be pretty sweet.
Again, true love has no shame or boundaries, Alex.
Velez already has a double...you go, Eugenio!
AC, shouldn't you be at the Dodgers/Padres game today?
TRIPLE!!!

I can't believe it!!
It's hateful, but "i told you so".
Dodgers lead by 3! Got to change the GT...
Holy crap...I can't believe that the giants won.
amazing
Eugenio Velez = Andre Ethier???
I hope someone in the Dodgers office sends Eugenio Velez a fruit basket or something.
Or a muffin basket. A muffin basket would work too.
That gives me a post idea....
