I carry a torch for the New York Giants. But I carry a pitchfork for the San Francisco Giants. May the home team take one to Jonathan Sanchez early and often.

SI was very overdesigned in that era, if the gigantic logo doesn't give it away (and it may still be). They also unnecessarily used boldface in headlines, irritaterd the crap out of me.

|
| Swan Swan H May 07 2010 09:16 AM Re: NY Now Hosts NY Then -- IGT 5/7/2010 |
|
He seems to hang in well enough, and he takes enough pitches that if Castillo is looking to steal he can have a chance. Pagan is not getting on base enough to be on top of the lineup. Of course, the likelihood that Castillo hits anywhere but two is small, but I think this would work.

Whiteside 2-2 at the plate tonight, hitting .348 in split-time, and looking good wearing the tools. Between him and the Posey-in-waiting at Fresno, why exactly did they sign FatBengie again? Pelf through 6, having thrown just 68 pitches and blowing away two Jints in the last half-inning. He looks as comfortable as Hush Puppies.

I love Pelfrey. Completely dicked over those first 2 batters that inning and got out of it with a ballsy defensive play of his own and a DP grounder from the leadoff hitter. What a stud.

Pelfrey getting to butt through until the end of the seventh = Jerry learning. Slowly, but learning. Pitch count quite low, but he still could have went into Operation Shutdown there.

Barajas is looking hurt. He was hit by a bat in the top of the inning, and he's in pain after his at-bat.

[quote="TransMonk":28d9ii6g]I'm actually kind of suprised that Barajas is getting the start over Blanco.[/quote:28d9ii6g] Sorry, Rod. I like ROD! This has by far been my favorite game this year. Great game!

Barajas has 9 homers and all 3 2-HR games were on Fridays.

Would have sucked to lose that HR to the high fence ... and we almost did.

I didn't know that Burkhardt's home post-game winning interview are played over the sound system at CF--that's a nice touch.

Romo gives up a lot of HR's to righthanded batters and has reverse platoon splits in general, so walking Davis to get to Barajas was a bad idea on paper and in practice. Citi doesn't look so intimidating for hitters now, does it?

G-Fafif was right: KBurkhardtSNY For those that asked - it was first time we did interview and put it on the scoreboard. Judging from fan reaction, may happen more often.

They got that interview up real fast so there were a LOT of people still there to see/hear it and cheer Rod. His curtain call of sorts. Very nice touch. I'd need to see the replay but my sense was that Whiteside had to have stepped out of the batter's box to even swing at the pitchout and therefore should have been the one called for interference. I sure would've liked to see Jerry at least argue that one. I realize Nieve worked out but with Pelfrey at about 85 pitches, I was not in favor of lifting him in the 8th. Walkoffs are lots of fun!

In a sense, though, Nieve didn't work out, because once you go that path, you are in the delusion of Operation Shutdown. Once entering the pen, you cannot turn back, so you better be certain you've got better going forward than your starter is offering. I'm not saying the Mets didn't have more than Pelfrey going forward (though it turns out they didn't). It's just not a sin to have faith in your starter and be as willing to lose on that faith as you are willing to lose on your faith in the pen.

I would've left Pelfrey in. I always want to leave the starter in, particularly when it's an error and a bloop. If he's getting hit hard, it's one thing. can't even use the 'tired' argument because he didn't even have that many pitches. I understand Manuel is contractually obligated to have Pedro and Fernando warm up every single game, and that they've been pretty effective and then you supposedly have the lockdown closer thing..(DON'T SHAKE OFF BARAJAS!) but I think generally leaving your starter in falls under "If it ain't broke..." Assuming he got out of it with the lead, I also would've left him in for the ninth.

Great IGT, peeps.[/quote:1gfe2pj8] Friday nights are tricky for us... I was running around, watching the kids, running errands. Caught Ike's 2nd HR in the car but missed much of the early going. Finally got the kids settled in in time for the 8th and 9th innings, so I got to see the end.

I'd have been more comfortable sticking with our not-tired-yet starter.
