Giants about to sweep a doubleheader in Atlanta, guess the Braves season is over

[mk49]

I just realized my Budweiser cans don't have "The Giants" on them.  That's new.

There was an old poster here who would post game threads without fail.  He was of a different generation,  and would use the word horsefeathers in lieu of cursing.   After he passed away,  we began using that word in his memory,  so to speak. 

That’s really cool - thank you for sharing that to offer the perspective as to why that is 🙏

I love the Cubs organist play Carmina Burana, every time we have 2 strikes.  He's been playing it for a while now.

He also plays "Not Like Us" all the time

He just threw a fastball right down the middle there. Like why though?

[javy knows my name]

Lol Cliffy and Cohen in the booth?

There's not enough offense in the world that would make me watch that

Yep - to one of the better hitters in the league 

[mk49]

Roberts wasn't good last time and tonight.

My guess is because he got him twice on the slider, where Goodman swung, he tried being cute and hoped he would fool him with a fastball in the zone he didn’t swing at, thinking it was another slider. IDK why.

Guys can’t make it easy can they? Unreal

Really don’t want to bat in the 9th. 

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Pitchers miss location all the time, I'm sure his intention wasn't fastball down the middle

You thought Cohen lacked chemistry with JD, be glad you're not listening to this crap-a-thon

I am so damn sick and tired of hearing Zach Zaidman say that every single batter hits out of a crouch

As bad as Alex Cohen is, he's Jon Miller compared to Zach Zaidman
