I've always wanted to see at least one A's game, and it sounds like now that 81 has made his trip, there are very few of us left that really want/need to.

Had an Anchor Steam yet?

No steam yet, at least not here

wait until the end of the game when the gulls start gathering to "clean up". It is like a horror film. They get impatient and aggressive. And there are sooo many.

...and the cubs just beat the giants. :?

d**gers have fallen into last place

Wobbie · July 2011

After the Giants scored three in the ninth against Jose Valverde to take a 4-1 lead, Wilson returned to the mound, gave back two runs, then had an All-Star snap.

He grabbed a drink bucket and threw it to the ground. He grabbed a bat and whacked the fallen bucket. He slammed the bat against a dugout wall, then shoved an innocent gum container. Then, he politely grabbed the drink bucket and returned it to its proper place.

Brian, will you have a hard time watching yourself attack the drink bucket with the bat on television?

"Why should it be difficult? I squared it up."

Is your right hand OK? You seemed to flex it after hitting the wall with the bat.

"My hand is fine. Ask the wall."

yeah....he's a tool. but he's OUR tool

Not worried about our laughable division...

Wobbie · July 2011

nice showing by our boys.

I usually hope no Giants pitcher even gets in the game. Our history is a little shaky... :shifty:

Curse of the San Francisco Giants All-Star Pitchers:

1983: Atlee Hammaker
In perhaps the worst beating by an All-Star Game on a Giants’ pitcher happened in 1983. Atlee Hammaker led the NL with a 2.25 ERA that season and was selected to the All-Star Game. He was then hammered for seven runs on six hits in just 0.2 innings and to make matters worse, he gave up the first grand slam in ASG history. Granted he was pitching with shoulder tendonitis but still – the COTSFGASP claims its first victim of the 1980s.
1989: Rick Reuschel
In 1989, the Giants represented in the National League in the World Series. And in the 1989 All-Star Game, Rick Reuschel represented the National League as their starting pitcher. Only he didn’t represent them very well and was shelled for two runs on three hits in just one inning of work (my note: the worst part was seeing fat Tommy Lasorda waddle to the mound and pull him).
1990: Jeff Brantley
After the massive beat down the COTSFGASP laid on Reuschel the year before, Jeff Brantley was next. Brantley gave up the most hits (2) and runs (2) of any other pitcher in the National League. He lasted just 0.1 innings.
1993: John Burkett & Rod Beck
John Burkett was an absolute disaster in the 1993 ASG, giving up three runs on four hits in just 0.2 innings of work. His teammate Rod Beck didn’t fare much better, giving up one run on two hits in just one inning pitched.
1997: Shawn Estes
In 1997, Shawn Estes won a career-best 19 games for the Giants, finished the year with a 3.18 ERA and he was selected to his first ASG. In the 1997 Midsummer Classic, Estes made an appearance in the seventh inning of a 1-1 tie. He proceeded to walk Bernie Williams and then one out later, Indians’ catcher Sandy Alomar Jr. blasted an Estes’ pitch over the left field wall that eventually gave the AL a 3-1 victory. Since then, Estes’ ERA has never been lower than 4.00.
1998: Robb Nen
Although it’s fair to mention that just one run was earned, Robb Nen pitches just one inning and gives up three runs on three hits.
2002: Robb Nen
In 2002, the NL was in the midst of a five-year losing streak, but led the AL 7-6 in the eighth inning. That is, until Robb Nen entered the game. Nen allowed the tying run to cross the plate in the eighth and the game eventually ended in a 7-7 tie. Fans were outraged…all because of Robb Nen.
2008: Tim Lincecum
COTSFGASP never even allowed Tim Lincecum to reach the clubhouse after being selected to his first ASG. The media reported Lincecum had “flu-like symptoms”, but everyone knows better. It was COTSFGASP that got Linc.
2009: Tim Lincecum
Timmy starts and immediately puts the NL in a 2-0 hole. They go on to lose 4-3.
Let these examples serve as a warning to future All-Star pitchers who represent the Giants. Do whatever you have to do – miss the team bus to the stadium, fake an injury or make up a death in the family. Just don’t pitch in the All-Star Game because your career may never be the same. COTSFGASP is for real.
