based matt moore not wearing 55 to respect big time timmy jim. i like this man's integrity, but not his pitching so far
Aiden Watson
>SF keeps the number 55 reserved in honor of the winning pitcher of the clinching win of the **first SF world series win** (also farm-raised, 2-time Cy Young award winner) It was never offered to him; he was told of the significance.
Colton Sullivan
this makes much more sense. there were a couple articles that I read that made it sound like he opted to change his number to 45, not that it wasn't offered. whatever will get clicks :^)
Landon Perry
>starts letting runners on >i have a blister i need out of the game
>small strike zone for all pitchers >PHI = disciplined at-bats; draws walks >SF = FLAIL AWAY!!! Proper batting coach when?
Landon Walker
should have relieved him when he walked his 6th batter on a 4-0 count, now this game is definitely over since SF won't sscore another run, even if thi goes into the 18th. My bet is on Lopez giving up 2 runs in the 8th, though
Camden Bell
>le throw it 98 down the middle with no movement man
cmon strick pls
Elijah Foster
Derek Law is in line to pitch the 8th
Kevin Moore
hello do they play baseball in germany?
Caleb Gutierrez
NATO bases (and I mean baseS) shawn bro
Dylan Jones
...
Chase Gomez
should have traded Belt back in July, this dude is garbage
Nathan Wilson
I've already seen this episode twice this week, no thanks
Ryan Lee
who would they have gotten? duffy was honestly the only expendable infielder
Liam Perry
Time for GIANTS!!!
*squish*
*squash*
Lincoln Cook
Fucking Nunez sucks
Noah Nelson
Belt and Crawford were the hottest hitters before the ASB.
Since the ASB ... the WHOLE TEAM has been in a collective slump. They've even dragged down Nuñez into a slump (now).
Anthony Reed
Nunez was already garbage before we got him, his .285 was a fluke from the beginning of the season when he hit like .450. This dude is regressing since May and doesn't stop in SF. Never should have given up Mejia for him and should have kept Duffy at 3B.
Lincoln Howard
Time for Smiths 2nd L.
Jace Lewis

Joshua Cook
Magic time

Adrian Morales
A-at least we won the series
Ryder Howard
SPAN THE MAN
Michael Butler
Ya dummies
Chase Thomas
Shit.
Lincoln Kelly
Which pitcher will give up the winning run lads?
Kevin Gutierrez
Amen
Samuel Brown
True. But this team slump is dragging EVERYONE down heading to .250. Even Blanco's pinch-hitting OPS has gone silent; he was 4 for 8 with RISP before the ASB.
Also, you can pinpoint the exact moment the team's heart breaks at the balk-off in San Diego (notice the reactions Posey, Belt, Crawford, etc).
Cooper Edwards
the Nats triple play didn't help, either
Zachary Scott
ca-see-ya-later
Mason Powell
It's been that type of ride senpai
Ryan Cook
>Casilla
and so the wild ride begins
Christopher Bailey
nunez, just when i thought you couldnt get any dumber. then you go and do something like this...
AND TOTALLY REDEEM YOURSELF
Joseph Campbell
>nunez actually made a defensive play
wew
Ian Allen
Oh shit homeboy with the Play
Samuel Hill
Throw was shitty and unnecessarily rushed though.
Caleb Johnson
Good series, Giants.
Gavin Watson
Cya sf
Jack Young
The phillies have a hell of a future gg philz
Connor Baker

Great series phillies, hope we don't see you again for a long time

Wait, we won!?
Camden Harris
>Casillas pitches a whole inning without anyone reaching the 1st base
what went wrong, phillies
Aaron Evans
>Casilla saves the game with only 7 pitches ??? WTF ???
