Sabean got the team back together +/- former A's starters: The 2014 San Francisco Giants

encouraging Lincecum game, that being said. the starters are not stressing me out like they did last year.

Vogelsong couldn't even last two innings in Colorado today.

maybe he remembered he's ryan vogelsong

haha, hope this team starts to hit again.

2-6 on this road trip, they actually got lucky to win two.

Belt has played in five different ballparks this season and homered in each of them.

now in first place, 2014 has already been one wild roller coaster ride.

a sweep, sweet. finally Ryan Vogelsong pitched liked a major league.

Giants' announcers finish #1 in a nationwide fan poll of baseball announcers. Dodgers/Scully #2:

Lincecum jokes with umpires

haaa

just looked up jake dunning and was informed that his WHIP is infinite

what a game. 11-10, 13-inning victory that lasted 5 1/2 hours.

painful stuff by Timmy

could not believe how the Giants lost yesterday. inside the park home run by the bucks with the guy originally called out at home. replay showed he was safe. lost a complete game by Hudson.

so because of my MLB Extra Innings purchase i get MLB.TV for free this year. well the Dodgers vs. Giants are blacked out here in Los Angeles. tonight i logged into my MLB.TV account for the first time and able to watch the game that way, a mistake but i will take it for tonight.

don't know how MLB was hot linked, anyways listening to Vin Scully for the first time all year.

10 in a row for Vogelsong!

Vin Scully after a groundout to Crawford: 'location location location, it's important in real estate and it's important in baseball'

lol, i heard that.

Vogelsong is doing it all tonight!

The Brandons

this game has been so frustrating, they should have scored a lot of runs off Beckett tonight.

nice win, will take it.

Could say the same thing about Vogelsong.

Dodgers need to not play an extra inning game every fucking day and their bullpen wouldnt be so mediocre.

chicken ~ egg

ready for round two!

Brandon Belt broken thumb.

on a HBP i hear

wtf?

again, wtf?

anyone seeing this?

big time drama

have no idea what just happened. going to be a very interesting read.

another great win

but it came at a price, losing Brandon Belt will be huge.

Puig crushed a Madison Bumgarner fastball out to dead center, and reacted a tad too much to the Giants’ liking. He tossed his bat a few feet up the third-base line, took a little time getting out of the batter’s box and did not exactly sprint around the bases.

Individually, nothing was flagrantly over the top, but perhaps collectively it seemed too much for San Francisco.

As Puig rounded third and approached the plate, Bumgarner stepped forward and said something to him, and it’s probably safe to assume it wasn’t to compliment him on how nicely he filled out that uniform.

Puig answered back in kind and the two exchanged a few more words as Puig approached the plate, hands held outward to the left-hander in one of those what’s-your-problem gestures.

Catcher Buster Posey added a comment and the entire umpiring crew moved forward as both managers came out of the dugout. Posey appeared to say something to Mattingly, who quickly responded, but things did not escalate.

Mattingly, however, was clearly still miffed about the situation and apparently let his displeasure be known to homeplate umpire Will Little, who very quickly ejected him. It was Mattingly’s first ejection of the season.

Meanwhile, almost lost in the testiness was the Dodgers again falling flat against the Giants. The defeat dropped them 4 1/2 games back of the Giants in the National League West and left them only one game above .500 (19-18).

A sweep would be a great double blow of putting them at .500 and well... a sweep.

did not think it was smart to put Cain out there in the sixth inning as he was losing location. turns out that is the inning they lost it today.

A forgot they had a game tomorrow, Hudson vs Kershaw will be great.

new game, fuck.

7-3 on this road trip and more importantly, have gone 7-3 against the Dodgers. should have hung the lost on Kershaw but needed an extra inning.

Brandon Belt's replacement essentially is Tyler Colvin, first game and first at bat is a slash hit home run.

there is some magic with this team this year!

and now a triple!

Lincecum against the Braves is always a delight.

first team in MLB to 25 wins.

giants are playing really well but I read the bullpen is bottom 5 in mlb in ks.. not gonna be throwing up sub 1.0 eras all year. just some regression bait for yas.

lol Posey

wow is right

and it cost them this game, well maybe. they were really flat tonight but that was because of the Braves pitching.
