Game 147 Thread: Sept. 19 vs. Pirates, 6p

Magic (number) eight ball: YES

Clayton Kerhsaw (14-6, 2.12) vs Francisco Liriano (10-7, 3.45)

Kershaw will be dealing (no losses since June 27 with a 0.98 ERA over 13 starts), Giants are still reeling (their loss to the Diamondbacks puts them 8.5 games back), and Pirates have lost feeling (with a four game losing streak). So let's get keep whittling away at the magic number, now 8 with 16 games to play (only 15 left for the Giants).
