He does look like a panda, doesn't he? big_smile Big congrats on a stunning and totally deserved win - and yes, I was also impressed by the beauty of the park and its location.

You Giants boys have got some serious mojo workin' for ya. I knew that from the moment that ball hit the third base bag. If you manage to keep that magic the title is yours. cool

Like I said earlier, "if" Verlander still has it - well, last night he didn't. He looked like a 'normal' pitcher, not superarm.

RIP Iron Man

Rock On and keep the Faith

Re: 2024 Major League Baseball season

I still say were going 7 games.....the boss just called and said to come in (my day off), we have 5 sick calls already, and that number will climb in the next hour, I havent seen peeps so excited for any sport....I think the Tigers come up big tonight, and it is time to "move" them Giant feet, they are way to comfortable....

Tigers 5
Giants 4

Series 1-1

So you were listening to Harold Reynolds on ESPN's Baseball Tonight's post game wrap. He immediately did some backtracking about his comment saying I don't mean hit them, just make them get out of the way, move their feet, they're way to comfortable at the plate. The panda was in "the zone" and as he typically does, swung at pitches many hitters take. Buster Posey commented that he's never seen anybody swing at so many bad pitches with so much power in his post game interview. I knew the "particles" were active when that ball hit 3rd base, same thing happened against StL and Hunter Pence's broken bat squib hit are all things that add up to magical scoring opportunities. We made Verlander look mortal, just like in the All-Star game.

Yeah, it's a very patriotic showing. They only had 2 fighters for the NLCS games, but the Giants asked for 4 for the Series and the Navy oblidged. They had the "fluffer" pilot on the news explaining how he guides them in as the anthem ends to get the fly over right on time. He communicates with his pilots by radio from inside the stadium and yes, he gets to stay for the game while the jets return to LeMoore Naval Air Base.

Re: 2024 Major League Baseball season

Scott, hoping that you have a speedy recovery and the pain subsides. But you have technology to thank, they have come a long way with this type of surgery. The doctors thought I had a partial MCL tear when I was injured playing high school football, there were no MRI's to be had so back then they just put you in a cast for 6-8 weeks. Oh what fun that was going to school on crutches, NOT. Hang in there, rest up and watch the sports like Shreddy said.

Thanks, Shreddy & Cat, awfully sweet of both of you.  I underestimated arthroscopic surgery and had a wild ride last night.  Couldn't officially fall asleep, just periodic dozing and that only with serious meds.  It is a little bit better this morning which makes me hopeful.

Tink I'm gonna get the headphones hooked up to the iPod and just chill on the couch with my westerns.

Re: 2024 Major League Baseball season

Gregor Blanco !!! It was not all about the bunt he finally put down, but the pitches he took for balls to get to that point. He always had a good eye when he played with the Braves, so glad to see him contribute for SF. and then there was Madison, what a performance. Bruce talked about how he changed his arm angle a little last night, made all the difference. On to Detroit, you would think their bats would come alive soon, facing Vogelsong will not be easy.

Yes, get better and follow her advice, listen to the body talk.  Yes, , but if cleared by your bod, prop 'er up properly if you can and hopefully pain meds keep you somewhat comfortable.
