Game 99 Thread: July 19 @ Cards, 1p

Will we get another Van Slyke-Kelly standoff today?

Zack Greinke (11-5, 2.73) vs. Joe Kelly (1-1, 3.44).

Oh hey, look, it's Joe Kelly, everybody's favorite rib-plunking, standoff losing (above) Cardinals pitcher. Too bad we're not at Dodger Stadium, where he can get the fan reception he deserves.

Last time Greinke pitched, things ended poorly for both the Dodgers and SoSG Nomo. St. Louis isn't coming after Gnomes yet...but there's still time.

Crawford's brain is still on the DL

Crawford's gaff is magnified

I can't believe I miss the first-half Dodgers

Outsider comment, but had to vent. Visiting St. Louis from L.A. (huge Dodger and SoSG fans). We've got the game on the radio as we sight-see. Announcers are horrible--we're spoiled--but one announcer has called Gordon 'Dee Brown' THREE times now in the same inning!!! Vent over--thanks for hearing our cries!

Me said...

Ha! Dee Brown scores while we're typing on a tiny keyboard!

Orel said...

Obviously they have him confused with the novelist Dee Brown.

Orel said...

Zack gives up two consecutive walks, the second on four pitches

karen said...

Hersch talking about there not being a good feeling around the clubhouse with the schedule and the way the team has been playing. Get it together boys!! This is why you get the big bucks!

Oh, and by the way GROW UP!

I blame EK and his evil goatee

Donnie trying to tire out Paco already

Orel said...

The whole second half of the season is going to be like this, isn't it?

Fred's Brim said...

bad clubhouse feelings come and go with winning. We just gotta pitch better and pick up for this hitting. The bats will come back around eventually. Donnie and the coaching staff need to make sure this doesn't last much longer

Fred's Brim said...

@Orel it feels like it when the bats are dead like this. Every pitching and fielding mistake is magnified on the scoreboard. This must be what it feels like to be a Padre fan.

I feel like the bats will come back around, I just hope it's not when we sink to 7 games back. I hope the Giants comntinue to be average and when we start playing better, we'll still be around

Donnie phoning it in until tomorrow

Fred's Brim said...

I guess the Cards will wait til next week to suck without Molina

karen said...

2nd and 3rd nobody out.

No teasing boys, I can't take it.

Fred's Brim said...

let the teasing begin

karen said...

Matty on deck instead of Yasiel. What's going on??

Fred's Brim said...

Turner needs a start tomorrow

Fred's Brim said...

Did Yasiel hurt his hand (hurt it more, I mean) on that HBP?

karen said...

Neshek and his crazy ass delivery in.

Yasiel may be out because, once again, Joe Kelly hits one of our guys.

Orel said...

Dylan Hernandez ‏@dylanohernandez 1m

Puig left the game with a sore left hand.

Orel said...

This Kelly guy really needs to DIAF

Neeebs (The Original) said...

Matt can u help us?

karen said...

Geez Matt.

Orel said...

Matty 8-pitch K. Ugh

Neeebs (The Original) said...

Apparently NO! Mr. Everyday.

Fred's Brim said...

didn't see that coming, noooo

Orel said...

Kelly knows he can put runners on by hitting them because they won't score

Fred's Brim said...

or that
we are nothing if we aren't predictable

Neeebs (The Original) said...

Dog days of July

Hideo Nomo said...

Glad I skipped this one for a pool party. (No, not at Chase Field.)

Steve Sax said...

Pour on the weak sauce. Giants leading 5-1 on the sorry Fish, so we will be in second place shortly.

Dusty Baker said...

Holy shit, Joe Biemel still plays baseball professionally. He plays for the Mariners and I'm watching him right now.
