I'm starting to fear that this might be the way things go this season. A couple good games, and then a couple bad ones. Bad managerial decisions. Lack of effort by management to address starting pitching needs. Frustrated!

Kind of a turn around in the bottom of the 8th. Come on, Willie.

We never quit! Didn't get the W but something tells me the Giants won't be playing like tonight all 4 games in the series. Savage defensive plays tonight Addie, AAJ and Anthony! Guess we finally found Willy's ball in the vines, lol. Zobie clicking with the LO spot veeeery nicely.

What a rally! Never count this team out...even though we lost, we made them sweat and did some damage to their bullpen. Javy really turning his at bats around, nice bomb! Happ, Jay off the bench? Dangerous, and Zobie really stating his case to be ByzzoBrist, lol. Must've had a good breakfast , Zorilla crunch maybe? Watch out Rizzo's and Grandpa Rossy Crunch...his has marshmallows

Unfortunately Fin, we don't get points for never quitting. We've now played more than a quarter of the season and I'm concerned.

Lackey has 9 starts now..

I was watching the game last night, but had to call it quits after 4th or 5th (too tired to remember now) and turned off the tablet. This morning, I hear my tablet with little snippets of what sounds like the announcers. I turn it on and I'm still streaming from last night (INCLUDING commercial breaks). I was able to catch the 8th inning with the two 2 run homers, but unfortunately had to get ready for work and looked up final score.

But how bizarre the streaming was still going with a 8 hour (or so) time delay.

I thought KB was gonna make it three 2 run homers back to back (well, with runner getting on base between). Bummer!

Didn't watch the game last night, but it's good to see that the Cubs fought back. I'm going to the game tonight ... it's an early 6:05 start. I'll be wearing my new lucky bangle that I picked up before Sunday's game!

Happy to hear it Robin! You're gonna see the Lester/Cueto match up that didn't happen (and Joe REALLY didn't want to see happen, lol)after we took the series in the playoffs! Yep, as soon as you showed me that piece of hardware told you it was lucky, and proved itself! Hoping it works for Rossy too.(she says hoping she didn't just jinx it) With all the rain controversy, I am sure the weather is being watched feverishly early start is good~ Gonna be cold again, might be wearing gloves with the bangle A few running errors there last night by Javy and AAJ maybe change the outcome of the game, and Happ forgot he had KB and Riz behind him in the 9th, didn't have to swing at garbage or for the moon, just get on... but Javy' redemed himself with his bomb and we did what usually happens to our bullpen sometimes, lol. On the upside we got a look/used a little of Melancon a little last night, only fair, as we are the reason the Giants went out and got him. JHey is hitting the ball HARD....he is right on the verge, and last nights rally in the 8th started on his single. I like the pattern of baserunner/homer/baserunner/homer lol. His hit won t he game 9/4 against Cueto in the 13th (maybe the game is moved up considering that too, lol, lot of extra inning games Giants games these days).

HAVE A GREAT TIME AND GO CUBS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I do NOT want extra innings! I won't get home until 1:00 am with only 9 innings!

I'm very happy for the "early" start. Maybe I can watch the whole game without crashing.

The bangle really isn't my style, but happy for you Robin!!
