I guess Bum should get some praise for his performance

Just as Kershaw set a record against the Cards, Bum also set one tonight!

 

[RumblingRosco]

Quick, someone edit my avatar to replace the STL hat with a KC hat.

Rough game for us offensively.

Watching the NLCS game replay on MLBN to compare to the FS1 broadcast. On FS1 they were talking about lineup construction/batting order given how most of the left handed bats on STL don't do well against LHPs, balancing that with when relievers come in, etc. On the main broadcast, Harold Reynolds just said screw matchups, put your best players out there because the left handed batters have been hitting against lefties their whole lives.

 

[Nickle]

They've spent 15 minutes talking about Hunter Pence. Great pregame, FS1.

 

[Triz]

Let's go Giants, I want to come home win 2-0 lead.

 

[Little Green Yoda]

I look forward to another 3 hours of the Giants BABIP show.

 

[ConradCervantes]

Alright, Lynn. Be the pitcher we all know you to be.

 

[Corran Horn]

At least he is throwing pitches.

 

[Little Green Yoda]

Peralta working out walks is a good sign

Would be nice to get his bat going.

 

[Corran Horn]

Phew.

 

[Sir Alemeth]

Phew.

 

[Dusktildawn48]

Grichek is fucking useless

 

[Little Green Yoda]

Grichek is fucking useless

dee fence

we aren't scoring ever again

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

Can't believe Grichuk is starting against a RHP over Taveras

Actually I totally can

 

[DUFFMCWALIN]

Well that's no good.

 

[CygnusXS]

Is it because Randal is white?

 

[aFIGurANT]

Get on base for our new slugger already, Lance. Worthless hitting pitcher if I ever saw one.

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

Is it because Randal is white?

That has definitely crossed my mind

Doubt it's the main reason but I think being white leads to a perception of Grichuk playing the game The Right Way and that sort of thing while Taveras has some "growing up" to do or whatever the narrative is

Also, Taveras took Allen Craig's jerb.

 

[aFIGurANT]

Why are we leaving this to grichuk and Lynn? Am I missing something?

However I will laugh if Peavy walks this run in....

One run may not be enough.

 

[DUFFMCWALIN]

Cut that lead in half at least.

 

[BFIB]

Needed to put the Giants away last inning. Team is too dangerous to keep them around.

 

[see5harp]

Gregor Blanco is a horrible ass leadoff man.

Pagan

 

[zroid]

Stupid Giants

 

[Corran Horn]

Pence!

 

[Afrikan]

Crazy at bat....he was so far behind that previous fast ball. I don't know what to say.

 

[see5harp]

Pence finally comes through. Pablo is gonna get so paid.

Pagan

We should probably give up on him at this point. Him and Scutaro are made of peanut brittle.

 

[DUFFMCWALIN]

Hunter fucking pence.
Edit: Pablo is gone. Someone is gonna pay him alot of money.

 

[Sir Alemeth]

Pence!!!!

Hunter fucking pence.
Edit: Pablo is gone. Someone is gonna pay him alot of money.

Dodgers will give him a gazillions....

 

[Corran Horn]

Molina hurt himself there

 

[Little Green Yoda]

Yikes. Last thing we need is Yadi banged up.

 

[see5harp]

Yikes. Last thing we need is Yadi banged up.

You're telling us. Last thing we need to see is aj pierzynski in a game.

 

[brianjones]

Pence!!!!

Dodgers will give him a gazillions....

da pablo / uribe platoon!

ned can't resist his ex-giants

 

[aFIGurANT]

Molina really better be OK. The guys in the booth saying that's why he was bunting? I don't buy that, he was actually looking decent at the plate until just now. Either way this hurts a lot, especially if we lose this tonight. The bottom of the fourth will haunt me forever if this is it for him this year.

That wasn't why he bunted because he hit a single earlier in the game (and is now the Cardinals leader in postseason hits)

Seems he took a foul ball off his foot or something

That foul ball off his foot was like the first inning. He looked fine up until that at bat. I'm thinking he just pulled a muscle in his back on that foul to right field.

 

[Little Green Yoda]

Yost ball vs even year voodoo will be one hell of a matchup

 

[Dusktildawn48]

Man the giants get some lucky ass hits

 

[see5harp]

Well look at our bench. We need all the luck we can get.

 

[Little Green Yoda]

have you seen the Card's bench?

 

[Corran Horn]

Blanco did something!

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

Strained left oblique for Molina

Good thing the Royals are playing well

 

[Triz]

Bullpen advantage Giants ftw.

 

[see5harp]

have you seen the Card's bench?

We got Gregor Blanco batting 1 and a dude named Ishikawa playing outfield. We also have Juan Perez and Arias who are basically professional bunters.

 

[ConradCervantes]

Left to get dinner with the Cards up 2-0, came back with Giants up 3-2.

I am not displeased.

 

[DUFFMCWALIN]

The lead!

 

[BFIB]

Damn. Even year Magic at it again. We shit the bed at home, no way Cards come back.

 

[Fox318]

Watched the game in these candlestick seats.

nice
