209 here I guess Hard to get hype when the Giants are flatlining this hard
Lucas Richardson
Referring to Os too. Maybe they didn't see the game was earlier tonight. That and some are probably at Otakon
Ryder Young
Yeah, maybe. I feel bad for the east coast guys when they play out here- Baseball starting at 9 pm has to be a pain in the ass.
Lincoln Moore
Go Giants. Also hello MMR
Nathan Fisher
Hidoi desu
John Collins
Lol when did the Giants get NuneyToons?
Ethan Morgan
SPAN
Xavier Cooper
SPANNIS THE MANNIS
Blake King
Fuck. I knew it. If Bum didn't your lead off (Span especially) would.
Henry Davis
Tbh it's not that bad on a weekend. I don't mind late night baseball on my off days. Partly why I watched Boston get memed by Seattle and earlier these Giants.
Gausman come the fuck on
Henry Diaz
>over 50 pitches already
jesus christ.
Asher Long
ump is blind desu
Noah Perry
>The flailing jints >Gausman can barely throw a strike BUT has struck out 6 Giants.
No discipline at all! (And KNBR's Martie Laurie thinks that the hitting coach CANNOT and SHOULD NOT be faulted in all of this.)
Chase Ramirez
>khris davis is having a better year than chris davis
Bentley Brooks
Why have the Giants become so passive at hitting... I understand working the count but seriously get aggressive when your ahead
Wyatt Ward
Surreal, but unsurprising
Logan Parker
>tfw sometimes confused about which team is which
Chase Wright
dont they literally have the lowest strike out ratio in the national league or something? they are 4th in the mlb in walks
Cameron Reyes
>Vance Worley I thought that blonde chink was with the Pirates. He looks fat. How is he a major league pitcher still?
My nigga, buck, sit ur ass down my nigga that's a swing, fucking hell let the game go on.
Jonathan Sullivan
Red Sox fan here. Although I don't care for the fanbase, GO Giants!
Asher Collins
What the fuck it hit adams leg in the batters box. Its a fucking dead ball not an out. Jesus christ new york get your shit together.
Adam Howard
Christ, how can the umps fuck that up even with replay? The bunt goes right off his knee - even Kruk and Kuip could see it.
Benjamin Powell
Double doubles further confirms
Jeremiah Kelly
Bumgarner losing velocity off his fastball too quickly. Dudes not even 28 and he averages 91mph. Lincecum 2.0 or what? Even when madbum was 20 he only topped out at 94mph. It was an attempt at a swing and it only grazed the uni (yeah I know jersey grazes count as HBP) but the direction of 5he ball did it change. That shit tool longer than it needed. That's clearly at the discretion of NY
Kevin Hill
>the direction of 5he ball did it change. The direction of the ball did NOT change
Justin Ward
It bounced off his knee and into the dirt. Thats a dead ball my man.
Sebastian Kelly
he was around 94 earlier in the season jones's knuckle bunt barely changed trajectory when it grazed off his knee. ny fucked that one imo
Camden Bailey
>It bounced off his knee and into the dirt. *grazed* the direction of the ball did not change and it was a clear attempt at a bunt. Could have gone wither way I don't give a fuck but it took too long.
>bumshit Let me see you work
Elijah Morris
GOT EEM
Parker Rodriguez
nah it clearly changed direction when it hit his knee ma man
Isaac Miller
Great job Davis. Really earning that paycheck.
Oliver Cox
I could see the direction of the ball change even at full speed during the AB (which is why I wondered what was going on, since it was a foul ball).
The slo-mo just makes it even more clear - except to New York.
John Richardson
Bounced and clearly changed direction. Dead ball. Not like it matters seeing as the birds offense is non-existent. Just painful seeing officials calling plays incorrectly.
Caleb Howard
Okay dudes w/e I'm just tryna see someone hit a bomb and start a rally.
Jose Rivera
Orioles announcer can't see the difference between a home run and a ground rule double.
Austin Powell
Reminder this Bum got less hits than Zach and Clay lol (less cy youngs too, exactly 6)
Ian Rogers
who has more rings, WS MVPs, NLCS MVPs, and babe ruth awards senpai?
Brody Cruz
Thorn is 70 something.
Wyatt Martinez
I can't believe Bumgarner has no championships yet people still think he's good. Sad!
Adrian Morris
to be fair that part of the yard is fuckhuge
Ryder Harris
It was hard (not impossible, but hard) to see on the initial camera shot, too.
Doesn't help that Gary's probably a good way through a bottle by now.
Zachary Cooper
>68
Bentley Davis
>babe ruth awards senpai? You wanna count ESPY'S too my nigga Lol? Memes aside the only pitcher who was more decorated than Kersh was Lincecum.
yeah, but bumgarner will go down as the better winner unless kershaw starts winning some rings. he had probably the best WS performance of any pitcher ever, has an all time WS ERA of like 0.26.
Jaxson Scott
Alcoholism is no excuse. If you can't see a ball bounce in the dirt and then go up into the stands, maybe you ought not to be calling a ballgame. Then he didn't even admit to being confused and acted like he didn't almost make a home run call. What a pussy. Orioles announcers suck.
>he had probably the best WS performance of any pitcher ever Damn lmao I understand you're a homer piece of shit, but damn, what a ridiculous fucking thing to say.
Wow.
Christopher Gutierrez
Someone sounds buttfrustrated.
Kevin Cooper
Dont worry fenway were definatly losing thos one.
Carson Hill
B E L T E D E L T E D
Julian Watson
Off of fucking jiminez. Thats about as easy as you want. Because ubaldo is G A R B A G E A R B A G E
Juan Gonzalez
That pitch was like throwing BP to Belt - like hitting t-ball.
Oliver Cooper
What? He allowed 1 run in 21 innings. What more do you want from him?
Oh, I see, you're a "troll". xD well memed my friend
Zachary Torres
NICE
thank you based Belt
>Eternal 4th Placers btfo
Ryder Perry
Skeeter.
Nevar forget.
Brayden Ross
this is a lot of hard contact
Landon Thomas
Well historically ubaldo has owned the giants
Isaac Roberts
I guess since Jon Lelster has the second lowest WS ERA and a ring that makes him better as well?
Bumgarner doesn't even have the best single game WS performance on his team lol. He's good my nigga but don't elevate his status too much with 20 innings against KC lmao when clayton himself has two scoreless inning steaks of 40+, and 35+ innings in separate seasons
Austin Bailey
i never said bumgarner is better than kershaw, but his WS performance in 2014 was all time great.
Ryder Bell
>Kershaw has good regular season numbers Everybody already knows that, dingus. He's still a choker.
Gabriel Jones
Pence looking like the Bride of Frankenstein minus the white stripe.
Caleb Hill
Damn some """""thread""""" you guys have here
Ryder Jones
Series finale is a getaway game (travel for BAL after)
... tomorrow at 4:05 PM ET | 1:05 PM PT
