In Zaidi we trust - The Giants

It’s such a shock to see them hitting well. They were dead at the plate last year. I loved Tom Murphy when he was a Mariner and if he stays healthy he’s *always* a problem in the lineup.

I love him

The Giants DFA'd Joey Bart. Daulton Jefferies gets the roster spot and will start today.

Jordan Hicks had a great start: 7 innings, 1 ER, 90 pitches. Really think he could go 8 against a worse lineup. I assume he’s not coming out for the 8th.

Now can they win? I'm not happy about this hole they've found themselves in. Tired of getting swept by the damn Dodgers

Home opener walk off will do very nicely! Hbp + a double isn’t the prettiest but who fucking cares

Just watched the walk off, was working so I put it on pause a few times

The games against the Dodgers weren't even fun to watch.

Kevin Gausman to Tyler Rogers after the game, on how much his rising slider moves: "You're going to hit a lefty in the face one day, and the guy's probably going to swing at it. Which is crazy to think about."

Snell is going to drive me nuts, had something like 55 pitches in the first two innings. Only lasted three and the lost, with all those walks, is on him.

This all happened against, let me check my notes, the Nationals.

Snell barely had any ramp up time, ofc he’s going to be dogshit his first time out. That said, running the bases loaded constantly is exactly the pitcher he is and always has been.

I'm having a hard time with this years team. They still can't hit, witch makes no sense. They spent all that money and it feels like they are running in mud.

Snell vs Montgomery , might have to pay $10 tonight

It's Patrick Bailey's birthday today and his bobblehead day at the ballpark. He just hit a splash hit, his first, and so far is 3-3 with that home run.

Padres 4 - 3
Dodgers 0 - 3
D-Backs 2 - 2

Some lame ball/strike calling in the 9th today

Ump's have been horrible this year.

LOUD “Umps You Suck” chant breaks out after a controversial swing-and-miss is called a foul tip.

Logan Webb got 15 ground balls that were converted into outs tonight (including one GIDP), which matches his career high. He good.

His changeup-sinker two pair is so ridiculously effective. Love to see a starter with a unique primary pitch repertoire.

hell yeah MLB.TV showing Duvals walk out

*Doval’s

🐐 sighting

Webb was in a groove tonight, funny because I was worried about him after the first two starts this year, lol

Webb is steady af, I was thinking about him specifically because of how efficient his starts are. Andrew Bailey is a miracle worker.

Uhhhh snell placed on 15 day IR

Saw that. Probably not surprising given he started late and didn’t ramp up enough.

Read something last week that none of the seven biggest MLB contracts belong to Boras' clients whereas 10 years ago, he owned 9 of the top 10.

Last night's game sounds like a classic but I missed as I was at Slowdive.

PATRICK BAILEY CALLED GAME ‼ pic.twitter.com/vB8jOVXkEk

Patrick Bailey made history with the walk-off blast, becoming the first catcher in MLB history to turn a double play, catch a shutout and hit a walk-off home run in the same game, per OptaSTATS.

This was nice, I like it when people are classy:

"There's some really good people here."

xp that's some reaching but I guess with baseball there's such a huge sample size of games it's hard not to be surprised when the first of anything happens.

xp it wasn’t him sneering about him being DFAed. Giants fans were gloating for whatever reason. Good for him.

6 - 4 on this home stand with two series wins and one split. One month in and one game under .500, will take it. No help from Snell but still doing okay.
