Giants @ Reds Game 2: Zito(1-0 1.71) vs. Arroyo(1-0 2.91)

  But Valdez is a career .300 batter off Zito. Of course, he hasn't faced him since 2007. But that is the "excuse" from Fay and the like.

  That said, I had no problem with Sam throwing at Posey. I'm glad he didn't actually hit him, especially in the knee. I'm not sure if Sam was try to hit him or just send the Giants a warning. I'm leaning towards the latter.

  You are literally the only one that feels that way.

  Not that I'm the only one that feels that way. That Votto was not hit intentionally.
• Midstate01

  

  I don't think he hit him intentionally. I was saying that I didn't care either way. I was just glad Lecure had his back.

  Cozart getting a day off, lmao. I guess Sunday evening and Monday wasn't enough for the kid.

  
  Dusty is a fucking moron. You just threw a lineup out there last night that scored 9 runs and had 11 hits. Why change it?
• Midstate01

  

  Because he's a moron?

  I think they need to fire him and go after Francona.

  SWEET JOB VALDEZ!!!!!!!!!!!!
• mhs95_06

  Zito gives up a lead-of hit and is able to hold him on first until he can get the utility player to hit into a DP, then pitches around the 3 and 4 hitters to get to the one he can get out, Bruce.

  Stubbs got screwed outta a hit. Pagan didn't catch that ball.

  Yeah the stream I found is a few minutes behind, so I just saw that. It definitely hit the ground.

  Stubbs error plates anothet run for SF.
• mhs95_06

  Arroyo did his job and beat Burriss to the bag on the bunt, but joey doesn't throw it to him and BP confuses the issue by trying to cover.
• Rotinaj

  

  Nice job on offense so far you bunch of assclowns!!!!
• mhs95_06

  Rolen whiffs on an 82 mph fastball to lead-off the 5th!
• wildcats20

  

  Woo hoo!! A hit lol
  
  
  And Bronson is done.
• wildcats20

  

  Single for Frazier

  Damn, wanted 2 out lightning there
  
  For only 2-0 and rain, this has been a pretty good game so far

  Welcome to the dance JJ Hoover.
  
  Kid is clearly nervous as fuck. Let's hope he settles down here and gets some outs.
• sherm03

  

  Votto made a hell of a play on Zito's SAC attempt to turn two there.
• wildcats20

  

  Yeah, one hell of a DP.
• mhs95_06

  The middle of the order wastes a lead-off hit! Where has Bruce's pre-season point of emphasis gone? He said he couldn't let his emotions get the best of him and discipline himself to go the other way. He did fine for the first bit and looked away and then got to turn on a couple and hit them out, then his emotions got him and he hasn't tried hardly at all to hit the other way since!
