Rentaria couldn’t save the Giants this time
Rentaria, top 9th 2 outs man on 1st. I didn’t expect him to hit another home run to save the Giants, but I did expect him to have a meaningful at bat and not get out by a foul ball pop up. Really. The Giants’ offense is pathetic. I will admit that the bats come alive sometimes, but most of the time they’re dead asleep.
Giants lost 1-0 to the Phillies. I know the Phillies are hard to beat, but if you give up 1 run for the whole game, it should be expected to get some runs in too especially from Hamel! He is not having a good year, and he throws a shut out. Unbelievable.
Rich Aurilia was great pinch hitting. Andres Torres was safe, bad call. Benji Molina needs to take some pitches and take his time. Edgar Rentaria can’t get ‘lucky’ twice and he can’t win every ball games. Seriously!! 2 hits. WOW.
It’s gonna be hard to get into October without an offense. Learn how to get runners into scoring position, learn how to put them on third, and learn how to sac fly! The easiest ways to get a run home even without a stable offense. My goodness.
But all in all, Sanchez was great tonight, but of course he got the loss giving up only 1 run and making great pitches. What a shame.
Brad Penny tomorrow and I really don’t know what to expect. I guess I’m expecting that he won’t do as well as Sanchez did tonight, but when Smoltz and Lee came to NL they started off amazing, let’s just hope he follows that trend or close to it. Because if the Giants do make it to the playoffs, Phillies are probably the team they’ll face first. 3 of 4 at home, let’s take 2 of 3 at theirs! Come on Giants!
Now I’m hoping the depleted Mets some how wins tonight against the Rox!
5-4 Giants win in the 10th
Would have been happier w/ Matt Cain as the winner. 4 games now he’s been stuck with win number 12. But Brian Wilson after the 8th inning was amazing. As a closer, nobody would think they’d last 2 2/3 innings but he did and what a good job.
When the Mets aren’t playing the Giants I actually root for them because I think they have many great players, unfortunately most of them are in the DL. I’m just hoping like everyone else that David Wright is alright, and for the Mets sake, doesn’t go on the DL.
And for the record, for the people who still thinks Matt Cain did this on purpose, trust me he didnt. Wright was behind the count w/ a runner on 1st. That’s the last thing he wants to do. And I understand the baseball tradition that if your teammate gets hit, you gotta strike back. And Santana did that by trying to hit Sandoval, but he got away from it god knows how. And then he hits a homerun. Good job Sandoval. But I don’t understand why you have to hit another player after attempting to hit Sandoval. Really? Just because he got out of the way doesn’t mean it’s necessary to hit another one, Molina. But if that helped Molina hit that homerun in the 10th, then hats off to you Santana.
Good job G-men today for fighting to get some runs.
Hope Wright is okay though!
