>tfw you spent the offseason deluding yourself into believing your team is a contender when it's actually fucking garbage
Angel Bailey
Go Big Guys
Joseph King
just try to enjoy the 162, buddy
Owen Perry
Please, Ben Lively
Luis Davis
Is... Is that legal? To only pitch to 3 batters?
Jacob Reed
Why does Cueto always have a shit first inning?
Nathan Harris
because he has meme deliveries
Andrew Morales
>tfw to intelligent to throw the ball
Nolan Smith
Cueto is meme incarnate
Nathan Myers
>tfw at the game
L-let's go Phils
Isaac Long
>not jerking it into a phillies glove at the stadium to give your team energy.
It's your fault we are losing.
Nathan Rogers
Come on Blake Lively
You can do it
Caleb Scott
>not barehanding, and catching a pop fly with your own cum
Ayden Green
Why can't the phillies hit where people cant catch it?
Samuel Cruz
Announcers care so little about the game they start talking to shills part way through the inning.
Ryder Fisher
At least Lively hasn't imploded yet
Xavier Lopez
>only run is practically unearned >can't hit shit off a rookie on his literal first day
Whelp, once Cueto slips up a couple times we're fucked
Levi Hernandez
Oh you, thinking the Phillies can score runs
Kevin Hughes
Watching Doobs toe tap instead of leg kick was weird
Juan Gray
Giants can't score either, but even we were able to meme 10 on the board yesterday
Austin Bennett
>Cold April >Hot may IT'S TIME FOR TOJO'S COLD JUNE
Easton Richardson
Giants aren't the worst team since the 2012-2013 Astros
Jack King
WE HAD A RUNNER ON THIRD WITH ONE OUT. HOW DID YOU NOT GET A BALL IN PLAY
Logan Edwards
Ben Lively has one really small sleeve and one regular sized sleeve. He also WALKED CUETO GOD DAMMIT
Levi Perez
He's still doing better than Eikof
Jaxson Edwards
Is the Giants pitcher literally autistic?
Cooper Perez
yes
Caleb Young
Score a fucking run
Chase Bailey
Even though Ben walked 950 batters this game, the game hasn't blown up yet. I'm so happy right now
Grayson Barnes
I don't like how this is going.
Justin Baker
Lively pitched pretty well.
That's our brightest moment in the last 3 weeks.

Jack Miller
ODUBEL DID A THING
Dominic Smith
>Gets mad at Harper, beans him starts a brawl
Watch out Phillies
Jaxson Gray
>Odubel bat flip He better watch out. Strickland may drill him three years from now.
Christian Howard
Odubel is incapable of not flipping his bat. Even when he strikes out sometimes.
Daniel Kelly
If the Phils win this I'll be 2-0 this year after not seeing a win for 5 years.
Noah Cook
I think Neshak is my favorite pitcher.
Colton Taylor
I'll be 1-0. This is the only game I'll be at this year.
Aaron Mitchell
How expensive are seats that close?
Tyler Robinson
strickland is great fantastic
Jaxson Martinez
I was at the rape of the nats in the 2nd game
$45 on stubhub
Dylan White
Wow that's before or after fees?
Any tips for finding good seats? Also what section?
Landon Kelly
The rope stays in the closet today!
Zachary Mitchell

Kevin Fisher

Camden Reed

Isaac Ross
Before the $15 fee unfortunately. No tips other than look all the time. My gf wanted to go to this one because of the concert after so I've been looking everyday for weeks
Colton Myers

Thanks again for yesterday's W. Now, SF bats need to hibernate again and the bullpen needs to re-kindle the dumpster.
------------------------- Thanks a lot Strick!
------------------------- Series finale (game #3) is a getaway game (travel after)
... tomorrow at 1:35 PM ET | 10:35 AM PT
Joshua Walker
Hurray for the Phillies!
Nolan Parker
I'm just worried that when Strickland and Herrera meet again in 2020 he'll try to bean him
Carson Martinez
javier lopez > jeremy affeldt
Hudson Flores
I feel like Odubal would try to beat someone to death with a bat.
Caleb Cruz
Go Phillies!
Blake Nguyen
I think it's more likely that Herrera would do a bat flip after getting hit
Adrian Morales
>Icelandic Phillies fan dude what
Liam Kelly
btw Doobs could've easily had two homeruns this game. The wind pulled both balls back into play
Gabriel Anderson
>KNBR Giants Post-Game Wrap >>Duane Kuiper: Noboby flips a bat better than Odubel Herrera >>John Miller: I can't wait 3 years from now when he gets to face Hunter (Strickland) again!
