good game, fuckers :evil:

we let one slip away. I won't blame it but the umpiring is still shit. if we get the lead runner at third, you guys are screaming "it's a foul fucking ball!"...as it is, we're screaming "it's a foul fucking ball!" :? :roll:

all I know is.....this is a far better game than that AL DH bullshit!

I thought Buck and McCarver were making too much out of that foul ball play. It's plausible that Halladay would get the bunt down later in the at-bat anyway. But as it went, sure it moved the runners up, but it was the error on the first baseman during Victorino's at-bat that brought them in.

Everybody thought it was a foul ball except for the ump and Posey. So it's all in stride.

Honestly, that call was completely in favor of the Giants. They just fucked up the play is all.

Of course we all knew Doc wasn't right the whole game. 118 pitches with a groin strain - damn.

Bullpen was lights out - awesome!

So you're telling me there's a chance...

I am not a fan of blaming the manager. These are big league players and sure the manager may give them a little better or worse chance to win based on his decisions but it has to be on the players. Oswalt simply didn't get enough outs.

with all due respect, you haven't watched enough phils games. manuel is a moron

All I can say is props to the Giants. They've played the game the right way. If this is the series, then I'll forever be pissed at Jimmy. Biggest play of that game is what didn't happen - and that's Jimmy giving himself up and moving Werth over to 3rd. Still can't get over the fact that they didn't make that happen.

blame your boy for not making him bunt. ridiculous

Alright, so this is it. Do or die. We've seen this before, oh, maybe just 5 months ago. Let's squeak this out and bring it home, boys.

If cbp can wake up the bats I think you guys have this series. If tonights offense shows up the next two games San fran will win one. Not really rocket science, just my 2 cents.

all the phils have to do is play solid ball and put more balls in play. the giants are a horrendous defensive team. they will beat themselves.

still a lot of work to do, but the phils aren't dead yet. oswalt needs to throw his nuts on the table tomorrow night. get to sanchez early and the giants ass holes get real tight

not the prettiest of wins but we will surely take it. Halladay was off (awful 1st inning) but gutted it out to keep us in the lead. right side of the infield just terrible defensively (their's sucked too) -easy plays f'd up by Utley and Howard - just maddening. Bullpen was fantastic. Madson was awesome. Not sure I understand all the negative talk about the offense (although they are maddening to watch at times) as we have scored 3 against Linceum, 6 5 and 5, only Cain's shutout were we really bad. Defense has to be better though. One huge positive is the Giants can't possibly keep hitting as well as they have with runners in scoring position. If they can knock us out at CBP give them credit because i don't think we are going quietly now. Saturday night (hopefully but ridiculous you won't know starting game time until almost midnight tomorrow night) should be fun boys. 5 down 6 to go.

the offense has been atrocious. huff's play cost the giants the game. the phils offense has been nonexistent

He was such a butcher he could've been working on 9th St. I thought he could hit Lincecum. That's the only pitcher he's really struggling against this series.

seems like he's come up with a guy on 3rd and less than 2 outs about 5-6 times this series. and he hasn't come through yet. we all knew that is one of his many achilles heels, but it's been ridiculous.

whatever, not trying to start this shit again. couldn't help myself after last night though. sorry.

they're gonna need him this weekend. hopefully he and the rest of the lineup can start getting some hits. and no giants hit the ball to first

yeah, utley has been fighting himself all series. he's like ozzie smith compared to the first baseman though.

chase just looks like he's pressing. he's in his own head.
