Dinger, the mascot, is the most pressing problem imo.

Let's Go Giants!
― Bee OK, Saturday, 1 October 2016 02:16 (eight years ago) link
and Bumgarner, chill
The Giants' feeling on the Cardinals-Reds brouhaha from Thursday night is, it's none of our business.General manager Bobby Evans said Friday that it was not the Giants' place to call the league and opine whether the outcome at Busch Stadium, a 4-3 St. Louis victory, should be overturned.There was no indication the Reds filed a formal protest arguing that Yadier Molina's game-winning double actually bounced over the left-field wall and should have been ruled an automatic double, which would have forced baserunner Matt Carpenter to stop at third. Instead, Carpenter scored to give St. Louis a crucial win impact the wild-card race and the Giants.The Reds wanted a replay challenge but did not inform the umpires in time."There is no recourse for a third party," Evans said. "Our focus has to be here."Giants fans hoped the Reds would protest the game. If the protest were upheld, Cincinnati and St. Louis would have to meet again to pick up the game from the point of the protest.It made little sense for the Reds to protest. They are going home for the winter, and I can't imagine they want to fly to St. Louis to play Monday, knowing the whole thing could be finished on one pitch.If Giants fans want to be upset with what happened, that's fine. But they probably should be more upset the Giants have gone 27-42 in the second half. Had they gone 34-35 they would have 91 wins, same as the Dodgers, and would have popped Champagne corks by now for reaching the postseason.

all the Giants need to do is win one more game and they are in right?
― Bee OK, Saturday, 1 October 2016 07:15 (eight years ago) link
In what? If they go 1-1, they could be in a play-in game -- or two -- before the WC game.
― The Hon. J. Piedmont Mumblethunder (Dr Morbius), Saturday, 1 October 2016 13:39 (eight years ago) link
what i meant by in is, playing past Sunday. if the Giants just win out then that would be best and the other team will face Bumgarner.
― Bee OK, Saturday, 1 October 2016 17:39 (eight years ago) link
this season Baseball ending would have been boring without the Wild Card games.
― Bee OK, Saturday, 1 October 2016 17:40 (eight years ago) link
it really helps when the team you root for is in that mix.
― Bee OK, Saturday, 1 October 2016 17:41 (eight years ago) link
well you're going against kershaw today so
― k3vin k., Saturday, 1 October 2016 17:44 (eight years ago) link
the Giants do fine against Kershaw.
― Bee OK, Saturday, 1 October 2016 20:24 (eight years ago) link
i know record wise it might say something different but watching those games they are always right there outside i think one game this year.
― Bee OK, Saturday, 1 October 2016 20:25 (eight years ago) link
Go time
lowest ERA at AT&T park of all time, but ok
― k3vin k., Saturday, 1 October 2016 20:28 (eight years ago) link
Enjoying Blach so far. Indeed, the first strikes are impressive. I nominate him to run 48 innings to another post-season glories, full of pinch hit HR and well timed wild pitches.
(A Bumgarner, Cueto, Shark, Moore, Blach rotation makes me confident right out of the gate for 2017)

― Bee OK, Saturday, 1 October 2016 22:29 (eight years ago) link
David vs Goliath indeed
i was on delay but what a game, in a must win environment.
this is why i truly love baseball, nothing like it.
― Bee OK, Saturday, 1 October 2016 22:30 (eight years ago) link
a Bumgarner vs Syndergaard matchup is another reason why I love baseball.
― Van Horn Street, Saturday, 1 October 2016 22:46 (eight years ago) link
