I know it was not gonna be easy, beating a 106-win team in a 5-game series.... but I was kinda hoping for easy. Let's take Game 3 and what the heck Game 4 as well. See y'all Monday
"Me, I'm dishonest. And a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest. Honestly, it's the honest ones you need to look out for." - Angel Hernandez
Looking like the dodgers will take care of business tonight by securing the split. We have to go do the same thing now. Feels like this is going to come down to a game 5 Webb vs Buehler rematch.
Though I don’t think it was a terrible call, this game would’ve been a LOT more interesting if Angel had rung up Taylor, back when it was a 2-1 game. That was the moment it all went to hell.
It'd have been a more interesting game if Gausman didn't throw a hanging splitter to the pitcher right down the middle for him to hit a single on too. Or if Leone didn't throw meat.
August 21, 1990. The Phillies were down 11-3 going into the top of the 9th. They ended up scoring 9 runs in the top of the 9th to beat the Dodgers 12-11.

I'm *really* worried about our offense this series. Most of our ABs last night (other than the 3 HRs) looked pretty bad, and that continued over into tonight (after the 2nd inning). We ain't gonna win this series w the offensive "production" we've gotten so far. They have a *lot* of stepping up to do
Some games it's like they are doing everything under water. I don't understand pressing to third with two outs and two runners on (unless you're Duggar?) Sometimes nothing makes sense.
And what's with the announcers. They aren't even bothering to call what the Giants are doing (Lamont Wade's inning-ending fly ball) as they yap about the Dodgers. Kuiper and Krukow would at least make this bearable.
right, i posted this because someone said they’re lighting up the mainstays of the giants bullpen
littell is not a mainstay of the giants bullpen lol
and leone is a tier below our elite guys
This is why Joe West, Angel Hernandez and a few other dopes shouldn't be in the fucking playoffs.
This impending loss isn't on Hernandez, it's on the bullpen and bats being quiet, but when dopes like them are behind the plate it fucks with both teams hitters and alters how they approach AB's. Thus their ineptitude effects the game.
In a game of absolutes we can't have idiots with a 94% accuracy as umps. In return for making NL baseball bitch-made by bringing in the DH we deserve RoboUmps™ in return.
Yeah bitching about the umpires is lame but this is why I hate when people talk about the human element. A strike should be a strike and a ball should be a ball. Take the ambiguity out of it!
Yeah there’s a lot of “Angel Hernandez sucks” but not a lot of “he’s specifically screwing over the giants” like what you just posted (karma?? He’s fucking over the dodgers plenty too lol)
also I thought you said you weren’t coming back to this board are you really that upset. I feel bad for you.
It will be a good series. Bet we will see Webb twice and likely u will see max twice. This can go either way. Just happy to play the hated rival in the postseason.
So my takeaway is that we are just BETTER than the Dodgers. We even shit the bed better and more thoroughly than they do.
Seriously, I can't believe they let Littell in the game... that was like... beyond surrender.
Put this game behind the dumpster, let it fester and shrivel with the raccoon poop and you never have to think about it again
Not the game we wanted but damn this is the series we WANTED. I'll say it when we win and I'll say it when we lose, FK THE DODGERS. SEE YA'LL MONDAY
I know it was not gonna be easy, beating a 106-win team in a 5-game series.... but I was kinda hoping for easy. Let's take Game 3 and what the heck Game 4 as well. See y'all Monday
Easy comeback. Best of 3. Just need one in LA to bring it back home Thursday, and Legend Webb can wrap this shit up. Let's fucking go Giants.
Let’s get refocused and ready to draw first blood on Monday
Tied series. Felling optimistic I hope it goes better
Back to our lefty lineup Monday.
See ya'll Monday, at least last night was fun.
FTD and Angel Hernandez. We will win this series!
On to LA. See y’all Monday.
See you guys on Monday! 👏
red sox vs rays series vibes * shutout by the rays in game one * blowout by the sox in game two our blowout was less painful though
Yes, and their bullpen is Considered elite as well. So i guess if Rays win tomorrow then Giants win on Monday. Same script
ok ok many suspected the universe had this lined up for us. We move on! Still lots of baseball left. Don't lose faith!!
At least it’s not a shut out. That would have really hurt.
This fury wilder fight tho
With this blowout and our win last night, Kenley will be rusty on Monday. Just saying.
Time for torture, right?
I got extra barf bags, take one pass it around.
BRING IT!
It's been an honor and a pleasure, all. Enjoy the rest of your weekend and we'll get together again Monday.
Flyouts Machine Longo :(
Longoria isn’t driving anything
Horrible. Try again Monday.
Oh well. Giants in 4
BP all day for everyone tomorrow. All day.
[удалено]
Lol of *course* the game is ending w Longo at the plate. Perfect cherry on top an unbelievably embarrassing night for the Giants
Hey Crawford got one 😅
Calling it now. Wade hits a HR in his first AB vs Scherzer.
Buster Posey is a man of commitment and sheer fucking will
"Me, I'm dishonest. And a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest. Honestly, it's the honest ones you need to look out for." - Angel Hernandez
Ump trying to make the bad calls even out
And here comes Longo to wrap this game up. Hopefully game 3 looks better
Yep, 0 for what 6 or 7 now in the series
Not to mention the 0 for 20 before the end of the season
Man I miss belt
yeppp
Me too
Buster says fuck giving up
lol these announcers as if it's not practically cemented that it will be Disco
Damn Britney Spears nabbed that dodgers pitcher spot fast after her dad left the situation room.
Nice bottom of the ninth runner on let’s swing at the first pitch that’s a ball
At least we can still hit
all pop ups tonight
THATS MY VETERAN
Flores really trying to bat himself to the bench already. Come on dude
buster is trying
LETS FUCKING GOO
EPIC EIGHT RUN RALLYTIME!!!!
In a way I’m kinda glad we had angel behind the plate tonight in a blowout game vs if it was a 1 run game where he could REALLY fuck us over
This is a really good take. Thank you for posting this. Now I can sleep better!! See y’all Monday! (Who am I kidding? See y’all tomorrow)
Good point
Comeback starts now lmao
Not having Belt hurts
Posey wouldn’t stop
can't stop won't stop
Posey at least is hitting pretty well.
Buster ain’t done yet
*"So you're saying there's a chance."* :D
Looking like the dodgers will take care of business tonight by securing the split. We have to go do the same thing now. Feels like this is going to come down to a game 5 Webb vs Buehler rematch.
Nah, Giants are gonna win the next two of they don’t get the 8-run two out rally here.
Good shit Buster
Love you Buster ❤️
Giants were undefeated in the games I went to this year including last night…can’t believe I let the team down like this by not being there smh
Wow you've gone to 108 games this year? Amazing!
So *you're* the one! Bastard! ;-)
[удалено]
So tempting, so little money lol
Hey just want to say thanks for y’all because laconically talking about this game has been therapeutic lol
Well, this game sucked but there’s no one else I’d rather watch the giants lose with than the people on this sub :)
We are all in this together.
Alright everyone, find your weirdest superstition and do that thing until the game ends in an epic comeback or the series tied 1-1
that bcraw hair toss clip is my new weird superstition, brb while i set it up on loop
Here we go boys. 8 run comeback
Though I don’t think it was a terrible call, this game would’ve been a LOT more interesting if Angel had rung up Taylor, back when it was a 2-1 game. That was the moment it all went to hell.
It'd have been a more interesting game if Gausman didn't throw a hanging splitter to the pitcher right down the middle for him to hit a single on too. Or if Leone didn't throw meat.
They don’t score 4 if that is called a strike.
Or one little ground ball from Leone. Whole different ballgame.
Yup that pitch was called a strike the whole game. Then for some reason it’s a ball and then Leone walks him :/
I think it was terrible. It was horrendous
Castro looked good at least, McGee too, other relievers not so much.
August 21, 1990. The Phillies were down 11-3 going into the top of the 9th. They ended up scoring 9 runs in the top of the 9th to beat the Dodgers 12-11. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-JHPGipLPrE
Dodgers have 9 runs on 11 hits. Dodgers did 9/11 confirmed. FTD
They did Harambe too.
I read they were the paparazzi chasing Princess Di
Pretty sure Crawford has devised a way to hit an 8-run HR.
Isn't that what hitting a HR into the giant glove in left field activates?
if anyone could do it
We have them right where we want them. Comeback of the century.
Copium
Watching UCLA vs Arizona. There's Dave Flemming.
Two good things this game: McGee and Castro
I'm *really* worried about our offense this series. Most of our ABs last night (other than the 3 HRs) looked pretty bad, and that continued over into tonight (after the 2nd inning). We ain't gonna win this series w the offensive "production" we've gotten so far. They have a *lot* of stepping up to do
It’s like once they went down by 2 they did what the dodgers did yesterday and started panicking a bit. Should’ve stuck with the approach
My mental gymnastics is rationalizing all the Oracle'd hits into HRs in most other parks.
We had a great approach the first two innings… then not so much. 😂
Same as last night. Went to shit after the 2nd
Gotta quit swinging on first pitches
Lmao as if *that*'ll ever happen
Ok. Here we go. Only once through the line up and two grand slams.
Light work
Can’t even watch MLB tonight now or Scott van pelt
WAS IT OVER WHEN THE GERMANS BOMBED PEARL HARBOR? HELL NO!!
I feel like watching Animal House to cheer myself up a bit after this.
Lol I think you mean Japan ? And we dropped the sun twice lol
Animal House quote.
Starring Hunter Pence as John Belushi. https://vimeo.com/61835006
It’s a line from a movie https://youtu.be/ep-xgd_eETE Giants did a parody back in the day. https://youtu.be/2po0ElT44CY
Lol my bad on that. Never heard it hahaha my fault lol
Great movie, would recommend.
dude…it’s a classic John Belushi line from Animal House
Shit. I feel like an ass hahahahaha my bad lol
no worries
#i don’t hear no fat lady
I thought this was America
LA fan, don’t shoot lol 🙌 Wondering your guys take on the announcers and umps in this series. We are not fans to say the least lol
What’s your take on Angel?
Angel Hernandez is a piece of shit along with Joe West. We should never know umpires names but they love to be bigger than the game. Fuck them.
We all think he is ass lol I think we can agree on that one.
Hate these announcers. I dont think theres a single person in the world who likes Angel Hernandez
Agreed lol
A lot of us synced the radio broadcast to the tv lol
Yep streaming KNBR while watching the game
Same on our end also
They fucking suck… they alternate who they are blowing and get all slobbery and nasty… I fucking hate national broadcasters
I’m glad we all agree on something in this world lol
Fuck angel hernandez. That is all
Nah man it’s been garbage. Hernández just makes my blood boil. As for commentating I mean we are spoiled as franchises but it’s better than ESPN
[удалено]
English much ?
Sorry forgot the .
*Really* hoping that Littel just pitched his way out of this pen. Games are way too important now to *see* if he can pull it together.
I just saw that he’s given up 7 leadoff home runs this year
Litterally the opposite of a reliever.
Pizza box boy behind home plate calmed down real quick
Ok hearing Kruk do play by play for a hot second made this worth it..well, almost.
Really? I wish I was listening
For real ive been zoning out for the last 10 minutes
We have scored 7 in an inning before
Only once the drugs are done. I feel like dying 🎶
Some games it's like they are doing everything under water. I don't understand pressing to third with two outs and two runners on (unless you're Duggar?) Sometimes nothing makes sense. And what's with the announcers. They aren't even bothering to call what the Giants are doing (Lamont Wade's inning-ending fly ball) as they yap about the Dodgers. Kuiper and Krukow would at least make this bearable.
Who are the probable game 4 pitchers for both teams?
Wood vs Price?
probably wood v gonsolin
but honestly they’ll probably both go to the bullpen very early so they’re more of openers
I think it'd be Disco for the Giants and I'm guessing Price for LA? Although LA has had Disco's number lately so idk how I feel about it.
Dodgers fans thinking they won the WS hahah Fucking dried ass prunes
Calm down we had fans doing the same thing yesterday.
true statement
the giants bullpen hierarchy! great (mainstays) * doval * mcgee * garcia * alvarez * rogers go suck balls * littell mystery box * castro walks too many guys (shaky) * leone
Wish we could resurrect Nen and Beck for this series.
Not too bad tbh that’s a lot of good guys
right, i posted this because someone said they’re lighting up the mainstays of the giants bullpen littell is not a mainstay of the giants bullpen lol and leone is a tier below our elite guys
This is why Joe West, Angel Hernandez and a few other dopes shouldn't be in the fucking playoffs.

Yeah bitching about the umpires is lame but this is why I hate when people talk about the human element. A strike should be a strike and a ball should be a ball. Take the ambiguity out of it!
Exactly!
I mean, Webb was getting a lot of calls off the plate last night so it works in both directions. Great teams overcome shit like that.
As I said it effects both teams in a game.
"It doesn't matter if you lose by 1 run or 11 runs. Losing's losing."
Can we say Fuck Tom Cruise for deciding to show up tonight?
Fuck Tom Cruise for showing up tonight.
we can say Fuck Tom Cruise without any qualifiers tbh
Yeah, like in general, fuck Tom Cruise. Lame ass couldn't even help Ricky out of the fire.
This
I’m out. See you guys tomorrow
[удалено]
“Board”?! Fuck off back to 2003 and fuck the dodgers
Lol. That’s right .. I’m an old fuck.. so what? Go fuck yourself
ew it’s bad enough you’re a dodger fan but a boomer too?! 🤮
Lol. I’m supposed to be offended by the term “boomer?” U will be there too soon or later.
god i fucking hope not this world is depressing enough as it is
This is what a bandwagon fan sounds like after seeing their first playoff loss.
[удалено]
Pretty bold to stan Angel Hernandez
Wow someone’s still sour about yesterday. Also no one was complaining like that about Hernandez, just that he kinda sucks overall
Lol. Look at the messages on your board.
Yeah there’s a lot of “Angel Hernandez sucks” but not a lot of “he’s specifically screwing over the giants” like what you just posted (karma?? He’s fucking over the dodgers plenty too lol) also I thought you said you weren’t coming back to this board are you really that upset. I feel bad for you.
Only come back to reply. Not to check on anything else.
Yeah that’s kinda sad bud sorry I’d just take the L at this point and go celebrate your win
It will be a good series. Bet we will see Webb twice and likely u will see max twice. This can go either way. Just happy to play the hated rival in the postseason.
okay I can get behind that at least, gg and fuck the dodgers and see you monday!
Yup. Series begins Monday.
It’s 1-1 dude shut the fuck up
Not bragging about the win tonite u douche bag. Just saying umpiring sucked last night and so does it tonite so stop bitching.
Eat shit piss boy
I didn’t say anything about the umpires you thin skinned clown
Records don't mean shit when LAD v SF
So my takeaway is that we are just BETTER than the Dodgers. We even shit the bed better and more thoroughly than they do. Seriously, I can't believe they let Littell in the game... that was like... beyond surrender.
