BASED GREG PAPA ON THE CALL

fire kuip when?

Will pence kill the entire team if they don't deliver?

Will Pence fucking die and stop haunting me?

monkey man pence is gonna carry this dying team into the playoffs

Hunter Pence is the forbidden prodigy of Man and Mantis. His dark mother consumed his fathers head when their mating was complete.

>forbidden prodigy
lol

Who he hell is this other guy on the giants call?

This desu senpai

Wait...is Cueto part of the Giants bullpen? It's a bit early for a blown save.

Greg Papa (CSN broadcaster).

>peralta 3b, gyorko ss
lumpiest left infield in the league

Please delete this I'm triggered

Based Cueto

Is this... a rally?
Can it be?
Whoops spoke too soon. Oh well.

Calm down there, BoJack.

>Posey swings
Did everyone notice the painful grimace?

Why do they send Posey ever lol

dumbass fucking posey/roberto kelly

lucky peralta dropped that shit

damn, papa seems so disinterested.

during raider games he's going fucking ham on the radio during the call

How's the game going lads?

Wazzup Metsbro?

So you guys rooting for Cardinals or Giants? Help me decide please.

Giants bruh
The only Cards fan I've seen on spuh is the AJ namefag

Off day for >us so figured I'd tune in to check things out

Thank fucking god the GIants fell for the Cueto meme

Nah. He's alive on strikeout calls and also

I've lived in both SF and STL so I'm just rooting for a good game.

I'd like both teams to make the playoffs (the Giants, however, do not always seem to share my enthusiasm).

The Giants own the Cardinals all day. It's a fact. It hasn't been proven otherwise in the last 5 years. The Giants get swept by the bottom dwelling Padres in the most critical points of the season, they probably lost the division in a matter of 3 days and YET they are beating the Cardinals. They own the Cardinals. If they were to meet in the wild card, seeya next season Matheny. but the Giants bullpen is absolute horseshit, I can't see them pitching out of a 5 gamer...

Fuck the Cardinals

Okay, so who's the best team, playerwise? That dreadlock black guy was throwing like an asshole, and I loved it.

>Giants, however, do not always seem to share my enthusiasm
I (and my friends) do. SF / STL is always a good game

So when are the Giants going to invest money in cloning Bumgarner and Cueto to finally have competent bull pen arms again?

Prior to the All-star break the Giants had the best record in the league but they've been in a tailspin. Both teams are pretty even right now.

Also Johnny Cueto is awesome yeah

As said, SF / STL is always a good game because they're both good clubs with good players and smart front offices.

On paper I'd give the edge to the Giants, and their record before the ASG reflected that, but the Cards are always so mentally prepared each year they play better than their player stats would suggest (and the Giants' record post-ASG shows the importance of mental toughness).

Still miss Timmy, though. And Bonds.

In advance of the Giants' upcoming games with the Dodgers (that will close based Vin's career, both fitting and so sad) watch this great matchup between Barry Bonds (MVP) and Eric Gagne (Cy Young).

that pence hr call was weak as fuck

Anyone know what Rich Hill did in Snaketown that caused the benches to clear? (and pissed of the d-backs to score more...)

Who will pitch in the 9th?

ARE
WE
BACK
?

Cueto is good for 115 to 120 pitches.

The team plays to the level of the opposition.

No every time I say that they manage to find a way to kill my insides

Ayy that pitch efficiency

Thanks cards

NLC CHAMPS

Next game: Same time tomorrow = 10:15 PM ET | 7:15 PM PT

cards aggressive approach working against them
never got to see the bullpen

Cardinals threw the game so the Cubs wouldn't be able to celebrate clinching the NLC. The bastards.
