Pregame Vin Scully ceremony, and tears, commencing
If you're not crying you might want to check your heartbeat.
This is devastating
I think Kevin Costner ripped my heart out.
C'mon, The Postman wasn't that bad
How'd you hold up through that Orel?? I balled my eyes out. Don't know how we're going to get through this.
Me too, still grateful they showed it all
I absolutely love Andrew Toles.
Another amazing throw by Toles to save Kazmir's hide
Stripling warming up, Kazmir must not be right
Good inning for Strip
Damn, all outs are from Ks through 2, he's coming after Aaron Harang and Tom Seaver
And DeGrom for Ks to start a game
But maybe that doesn't count with all of the walks in between
Wow, what a catch by Reddick, saves 2 runs (for now, Arenado is up)
Wow, big K of Arenado on a nasty 3-2 curve
8 Ks now, only a Turner grounout to third the only non K
Feels like we are losing
And I am losing the battle with sleep.
Gonna save some bullets for tomorrow night
Gnite all, get us a win!
Stay safe, FB!
I was pretty slurpy during the ceremony, Karen. It must have been like pulling teeth for Vin but if we were going to force him to sit down and bask in our love, this was the time to do it.
Joc HR! Ethier HR!
I'm just tuning in but I'm pretty sure that's a typo Orel. You just typed Ethier HR. Lemme check the box score
I just fact checked Orel, and he's right, Ethier with a PH dinger.
And there are 54,000 witnesses!
Did this game start late?
7:45 due to pregame ceremony for some guy
Cmon Kenley, DBT can barely keep his eyes open...
WIN
Fuck Ethier!
2! Let's finish this this weekend for Vin!
GAME 3
Utley 2B
Seager SS
Turner 3B
Gonzalez 1B
Grandal C
Reddick RF
Kendrick LF
Pederson CF
Kershaw P
4-0 good guys, Clayton just gave up his first hit in the 4th
Wonder if he goes past five innings tonight
2 more runs with the help of some Colorado mistakes, 6-0 good guys
@Orel, gotta figure it'll be around a pitch count. Giving up the hit was probably a good thing. Hopefully this gets out of hand and the yank him after 90 pitches. Maybe if he gives up a run, that'll make it easier for him to take being pulled earlier than he'd like
Clayton works around a GR double with help from another nice play from Chase
Clayton helps his own cause, 7-0 good guys. Padres coming back on Giants, now 6-5 after Bumgarner gives up another homer
Tied up in SD!
Kershaw throws 91 pitches over 7 innings
2 TD lead after the Reddick grand slam. I hope they pull Clayton after that long inning
6-6 going to the bottom of the 9th in whale's vagina
Good, Chavez in
14-1
...is the final score! Giants blow a 6-0 lead but end up winning in 10, 9-6
RIP Jose Fernandez. Only 24 years old and a brilliant pitcher and shining star in our beloved game of baseball. Thoughts and prayers to his family, friends, teammates, and fans.
Jose Fernandez, RIP.
K for McCarthy to start the game...
Seager just saluted Vin while getting into the batter's box.
Kendrick and Turner did the same.
Q7...I missed the first part of the inning so I wasn't sure. I love it that they are each paying their respects to him.
After Turner did it, Vin said "Are they waving up here? Holy mackerel!"
McCarthy looks good through two.
Vin waving back to Chooch was cool to see.
Chooch doubles! Kiké up with nobody out.
I am not going to make it through this game without crying. Every time they take off their helmets to acknowledge Vin and he waves back I get all teary eyed.
Just remember. We get three more games with Vin after this one.
Blah. Can't get them in. No score after two.
You are reading my mind Q. Even though it will be in hated frisco I keep telling myself we still get him next weekend.
Crap. After that promising inning it's the Rox that score.
Great diving catch by HK!
Doc needs to start thinking about getting Brandon outta there.
Single and double to start this inning again.
Seager with the excuse me swing. One out.
Puig with the sac fly scores HK47.
Giants lead 3-1 in the 3rd
Now 3-2 Evildoers
McCarthy out after 5.1 innings. 69 pitches, 2 R
Madres tie it up in 5th
We gotta get Tyler Anderson out
Seager ties it up!
OMG OMG!!! Tied up baby!!!
DAMN YOU OREL!!
Seager is awesome!
(blows smoke from pistol)
aaaaaand Kenley blows it
COREY
TIED!!!
NATIONAL LEAGUE WEST CHAMPIONS
Culberson CLINCH

Wow. Vin plays a recording of him singing "Wind Beneath My Wings"
That was awesome
