Let's go jints

Fuck Fox and their announcers

Who here is a Giants/Warriors here?

fuck off with these interviews jesus

I don't watch baseball to not watch baseball, Fox.

When the Cardinals are up they're taking about the Cardinals. When the Giants are up they're talking to the Cardinals.

>pitchers' duel

Which bullpen will crack?

>AJ Pierzynski unironically considering Molina to be a hall of famer

post yfw its still 0-0 in the 15th

...

...

Duane Kuiper: HE HITS IT HIGH, HITS IT DEEP, IT IS....... OUTTA HERE!!!

>Rain delay

The Cards Grounds Crew IS A LOT BETTER than

(queue Benny Hill or Keystone Cops music) ... the Cubs Grounds Crew.

>11 innings and a rain delay

JUST

Go Jints!

P O S E Y

>more innings than posts

I thought the Cards were good?

Jesus fucking Christ, Arroyo is grinding this pitcher down

FUCKING YES

>down
... to dust

Bellinger has power, but Arroyo has a good eye and a lot of patience.

He's clearly a novice with some of the pitches he chases but fuck will he be good after a lot of experience.

Is the new Giants strategy to tire the other team out until they can come up with some seriously clutch hitting? Is Boch a mad genius?

'The Kid' shows off what he's got on national television. Mama Kim is crying in joy right now.

Mother fucking here come the Jints

Gg jints, see you in June.

Wow I just got home. How was the game fellow jints bros?

Great pitching duel(s) ...

Then 'The Kid' showed-off a few minutes ago.

I can't take this torture

GG cards

yes. Gg mates

gg red birds.
