Giants, actually
From last years (failed) stretch drive to make the playoffs. It was awful.
Juan "Doesn't Cheat The Game" Perez, please keep hitting.
If he pitches really well or memorably, he could get a full share.
Something else to root for: Mark Lowe screwing guys like Taylor Teagarden.
Cliff Lee vs Tim Lincecum in game one of the World Series.
What a kick in the balls to Mariners fans. I don’t know whether to laugh or cry, but I will enjoy the game.
SHut up Fox sports assholes....
I want to see Willie mays on the field with the other Giants

I missed the start of that little montage but I don't think I saw the Mariners in there once
Yankees about 8 times, Royals and Astros at least twice each.
Has anyone seen that Ken Burns documentary?
Is it worth watching, or is it all ‘steroids, steroids, Bonds’?
The bottom of the "inning" was mostly steroids stuff,
but it wasn’t too bad.
"There! I just sold you for a cigarette! And I don't smoke!"
Yankees Ichiro Steroids steroids Bonds.

That was Part 2.
Part 1 was like Bonds, strike, Braves, JOE TORRE, Latinos, Yankees, home run chase/steroids

Hey Tim,
You can’t win this all by yourself.
God I hate Lincecum

Clearly, we haven't gone far enough with the designated hitter.
We need a designated fielder or designated brain for some pitchers.
Timmy is actually a psychic.
He was just making it an easier double play for Uribe.

Who the F calls Cliff Lee the left-handed Mariano Rivera?
Tim McCarver is just the worst. There’s absolutely no analysis in that comment.
Cutters?
"There! I just sold you for a cigarette! And I don't smoke!"
That was just the only link between the two I could think of.
I’m listening on radio, so I can’t hear McCarver.
"There! I just sold you for a cigarette! And I don't smoke!"
He did let us know who Mariano Rivera is.
I mean, I was all like “Who the fuck is he talking about? Who is this Rivera guy?”

There's analysis, it's just not helpful or accurate.

I've wanted Cliff to win his games and Texas to lose all the others.
I’m having second thoughts about that now.
He grips that change more like a splitter.
Just don’t call it a splitter, apparently.

HAHAHAAA!!!
Double for Cliff Lee!!

I didn't know
that you can run the bases with your warm up jacket. Guess it makes sense for the arms
Pitchers almost always wear their jacket.
"There! I just sold you for a cigarette! And I don't smoke!"
The jacket-on-the-basepaths never gets brought up when discussing whether to expand or abolish the DH.
It’s clearly messing with the uniformity of the game.
I guess i never
payed attention that closely. I don’t watch a ton of NL ball either though.

Lincecum is doing a good job proving me thesis.
That being that Timmy is overrated stoner trash.
Go Cliff Lee.
I fail to see how simply not keeping up with Lee at the start of the game makes him trash.
The stoner part is documented, but trash? I’d have him on my team any day of the week.
"There! I just sold you for a cigarette! And I don't smoke!"
I would, except that it is an absolute certainty that he is going to blow out his arm.
And that right soon.

That is a ridiculous statement.
He could never be injured, or he could explode tomorrow. Just like any pitcher. Let’s not let our rooting interests get in the way of common sense here.

Well, Vlad has not a lot of range
missing Ichiro out there Cliff?
I don't know.
It still gets a laugh out of me.
If I was a hungry man with a gun in my hand and some promises to keep...
I think they replaced Cliff Lee's rosin with with flour.
We all know he can’t pitch without that stuff.
Here comes Cody Mothafuckin' Ross!

Cody Ross has looked awfully familiar to me. Then I figured out who he looks like.
It’s this guy, from Friday Night Lights, Lost, Justified, and probably other good TV shows.
I actually remember him from Lost (after looking at the credits)!
I feel so accomplished!
Milton Bradley is my hero.
How do I love good defense.
Too bad there is none in this game.
Renteria is when your diarrhea crawls back up your asshole.

Twice in all major league baseballing history. That's less than 1 percent.
Of course, now the Rangers are up to 4 percent.
Jeff Sullivan was so right in his preview about the predicting thing.
Peter Bourjos is faster than anyone on your team.
It's really easy to predict things when you are actually in the future

I don't believe that confidence has much of a factor in baseball
But I hope tonight’s pounding completely demoralizes the Rangers.
I think batters can get the hinkys.
Of course this is pure opinion.

Wrong- I'm watching muted with Jon Miller radio and a 4 second delay and it's better than FOX commentary.
The final score of a game started by Cliff Lee and Time Lincecum is 11-7.
Baseball!
You're dead to me.

The number of errors in this game is amazing to me. This is the WORLD SERIES!
This is not the best of baseball.

If anyone’s interested, McCoven and various other SF fans have been taking over Auto Battery on Capitol Hill, up at Union & 10th. I won’t be there tomorrow myself, but there’s usually a good crowd. Also, cheap pints and food from Po Dog next door.
