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."

so in love with Lamonte Wade Jr.? Heโs a 29 year-old, career minor leaguer whoโs coming off of (.207) season. Heโs never hit 20 HRs. Heโs never driven in 60 runs. Heโs never stole 10 bases in a season. Sub par defender. I donโt get the fascination w/Wade.
Hot take: the Dodgers and Braves getting eliminated is actually evidence that the playoff format IS working. Why have wildcard spots if theyโre just supposed to be elimination fodder?
The Giants are now 25-15 with a +49 run differential since May 2.
That's tied for the most wins in the Majors, and it's the best run differential in the National League.

To all who believed in and cheered on my son as he has lived out his dream, thank you for all the incredible memories. "IF IT HAS TO END I'm glad you have been our friend in the time of our lives." Fill the stadium Sunday with Giant fans!
Giants only had two players in the top 100: Brandon Belt at 87 and Brandon Crawford at 58. Lol. I canโt wait for this team of nobodyโs to shut the league up again.
Screw it. Pay the man. If you get 3 years of ace material out of him, 2 years of middle of the rotation, and 2 years of โat least heโs better than โ19-โ20 Johnny Cuetoโ then it was worth it.
โGiants fans are invested, but not like in New York. Win or lose, youโre not going to get booed in San Francisco.โ

Absolutely destroying the Dodgers bullpen is one thing. Theyโre the second worst in baseball by ERA. What happened tonight was something else. The Padres have the third best bullpen in baseball by ERA.
I told my oldest son he could stay up until Logan Webb came out of the game tonight. Itโs 38 minutes after his bedtime and we just celebrated 8 innings of shutout ball together. Great outing

I think all Giants fans can agree that Yankees, Mets, and Padres fans talked the most smack this off-season to us. Someone should check-in on those teams.
LaMonte Wade Jr., who has publicly spoken out about racism as it still exists in baseball, hit a splasher while rocking a historic Negro league San Francisco Sea Lions jersey. Baseball, man.
Dodgers fans will try to convince you that theyโre a homegrown team while the top of their lineup every single day is Mookie Betts, Freddie Freeman, and Trea Turner.
The Giants are missing:
- Brandon Belt
- Mike Yastrzemski
- LaMonte Wade Jr.
- Tommy La Stella
- Joc Pederson
- Dominic Leone
- Steven Duggar
- Zack Littell
- Alex Cobb
- Evan Longoria
- Anthony DeSclafani
They are missing almost half of a 26 man roster.

Baileyโs reaction to throwing out one of the best players in baseball in a close game that is also the first rivalry matchup of his young career. And we thought Camilo had ice in his veins.
Itโs 2017. The Giants just lost 98-games. Some troll from the future tells you, โDonโt worry, Bochy, Bumgarner, and Longoria will have a shot at a ring in 2023.โ
- CMC fumble
- Trent back-to-back drive killing penalties
- Greenlaw injury
- Punt return fumble
- Missed PAT
- Abandoning the run at the end of the OT drive
- Soft coverage and a poorly timed blitz in OT
This truly was a team loss.
The Giants have moved into 2nd place and now the best rdiff in the NL West.
โข Giants: +48
โข Dodgers: +42
โข Dbacks: +25
โข Padres: +24
โข Rockies: -98
Blake Sabol executed a perfect home team Manfred-runner-extra-innings-era sac bunt to manufacture the winning run and Yaz simply decided to hit an absolute tank into the cove. Unreal.
Kevin Gausman is the one that got away. Carlos Rodรณn was a fun, bad boy rebound that scratched a particular itch, but you knew that he was never really serious about the relationship. Gausman was wifey material.
My oldest just got her tonsils out. Reading over this โrecoveryโ diet sheโs supposed to eat. Ice cream, popsicles, gummy bears and smoothiesโฆ. I mean what a life!!

Larry has complained for years about no one hitting for average anymore. Giants signed a defense wizard who hits for average and Larry complains about it. ๐
Ugh! I really donโt like this signing by the

-$19M per year for a slap hitter is a dramatic overpay.

Baseball is crazy. Boring ass game for 2.5 hours (actually, it was pretty stressful at times), and then BOOM 3-RUN WALK OFF HR!!! THIS IS THE BEST NIGHT EVER!!!
The SF Giants have had 16 different players start in left field on Opening Day over 16 years. The last guy to start in left field on two consecutive Opening Days was Barry Bonds. Imagine if the next guy to do it is Juan Soto.
Attention Giants fans:
Todayโs conference to introduce Carlos Correa has been rescheduled in order to hold an emergency conference announcing a BLOCKBUSTER 9-YEAR TOMMY LA STELLA EXTENSION.
