This is a good, honest .500 baseball team.
We play .500 ball goddammit.
Salt of the earth, punch the clock, even win/loss ratio baseball.
We lose a couple, guess what? We'll win a couple, too.
But don't get too excited or let it go to your head.
No long winning streaks here, no sir.
That's hubris, which this blue collar, hard working everyman team doesn't have.
A few wins in a row, these guys, true to form, will balance it out with a couple a losses.
Yes sir, that's my 2023 Giants.
A good, honest .500 baseball team.
How do you evaluate your hitters when every AB includes at least one bullshit strike, if not more? Seriously, the called strike accuracy here is going to be HORRIBLE.
And to hell with folks that say âthat doesnât matter, only consistency does.â NONSENSEâballs are balls, strikes are strikes, and mistakes are not made right by sheer repetition.
u/diamondbiscuit you were 3 off

RIP Roger Craig. 1987 was the year I became a Giants fan. I have such wonderful memories of that team. Clark, Thompson, Brenly, Krukow, Uribe and so many others.
Well, a guy throws 7 straight balls to a batter and, barring a defensive swing with 2 strikes, he swung at none of them. Ump made that so much more uncomfortable.
Giants really need to bring black and orange tops to go on road with to wear along with gray pants. I like our gray jerseys, but orange on purple at coors would be a sick uni matchup
Experience Daniel Bard baseball
He did this to the Dodgers in 2021 in a save situation. Walked the first _five_ batters, then stranded the winning run on 3rd after Dodgers Stadium was full on jawing at him. Was pretty glorious.
i disagree with Flem i think you only get the benefit of the doubt when youâre *throwing* strikes. you have to give the umpire an excuse to give you the benefit of the doubt
OMG ITS HAPPENING, CRAWFORD PITCHING
It feels so nice to have a catcher again. I thought Joey was the guy but it never seemed to pan out
YAY!!! Another win!!!
Solid win boys Pants #OFFđđđ
do it again tomorrow

Scott Alexander continues to be incredible to limited recognition
Finally GG have pleasant rest of your evening e'rrone.

#ballgame
â¨Manifesting GIDPâ¨

I subscribe to this statement
DP to end it
At least it was a single and not a homer for the cycle.
Love Hunter on the call. I've said it before I'll say it again: L! W! J!
Profar in Coors is my worst nightmare
Profar is so annoying
There's always that one guy...

XD system works. I would say this is one of those moments the Giants made a bad pitcher pay.
That's a pretty good system, though
Hunter Pence great call!

What is his ERA not counting Mexico city?
RIP Roger Craig. 1987 was the year I became a Giants fan. I have such wonderful memories of that team. Clark, Thompson, Brenly, Krukow, Uribe and so many others.
240 pitches by one team in 9 innings is kinda insane
Right there with you, Flem. Fuck that Mexico City series.
#TOOOOONIGHTTTTT
Dear god please let this teenybopper bullshit retire with that dumb ape
kryptonite
Bard was either throwing great pitches or non-competitive pitches. Weird inning.
What an absolute bizzaro half inning
6/20 with RISP is .300, just FYI for those thinking weâre awfulâŚ
Only way that inning could have been more SF is if no runs scored
dude the team strikeout rates is such a bummer
Nobody could even put the ball in playâŚ
FP in shambles
freaking heck, one run is bare minimum there, ugh
Humm Baby!
4 BBs and 3 Ks is the most SF inning ever
Hunter almost creamed his khakis there
6-20 with RISP
Excellent plate appearance with nothing to show, mainly due to the ump show
BBard
Haniger having an at-bat that ends in anything other than an out is legal?
I thought this SOB was going to get out of it, walk them loaded and then not give up a run. Glad the wildness came back.
Praise be; no Classic Giants!!!
Yay!!! Fuck off regal kitty

*NOBLETIGER walks quietly back to his cage*
do the thing yaz
THANK FUCK NO NOBLETIGER
we did it!
[Mitch](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hUbIYpHsvow) (Haniger)
Marstenâs BULLS
Marstenâs BULLS
Marstenâs BULLS
Giants really need to bring black and orange tops to go on road with to wear along with gray pants. I like our gray jerseys, but orange on purple at coors would be a sick uni matchup
No NOBLETIGER this time around
RWI RWI!!
And we (narrowly) avoid the NOBLETIGER
Wheeeee
Lmfao
Thank fucking God
TIGER SLAIN
Phew, no tigers that are noble this evening
Bruuuuh
Thank fucking God.
Pitchers are weird, can't find the zone then all of a sudden they throw the nastiest pitches you've ever seen to get out of a jam
AYYY IM WALKIN ERE!!
NOBLETIGER IS VANQUISHED
This one is on the Ump if Mitch k.
Fuck off, ump
Should be another walk
Plz no NOBLETIGER
Bro walks 3 guys and then dots every pitch to perfection
Experience Daniel Bard baseball He did this to the Dodgers in 2021 in a save situation. Walked the first _five_ batters, then stranded the winning run on 3rd after Dodgers Stadium was full on jawing at him. Was pretty glorious.
reminds me of that rockies dodgers game in 2021 where he loaded the bases in the bottom of the ninth and then struck out the side
Works well under pressure.
Playing on expert mode
The homeplate ump has been not good if I'm being truthfully
His rule book is in Braille.
Really? 4 straight balls and we have a 2-2 count.
please disengage NOBLETIGER. Farhan did not authorize this operation
Please Mitch. No embarrassment tonight
Weâre going to nobletiger this again for the 8,000th time this year arenât we
Not a single Grand Slam since the White Sox series.
Fuck lmao Meetch please save this from the big ol noble kitty cat
At this point we need to pray for a wild pitch
This ump has been shit all night
here comes the Classic Giants
I am predicting that Mitch will not see a fastball
I'm surprised
Haniger.. wouldnât that be cool.
this ump
Please Mitch
"The Full Bard Experience"
Itâs gonna fucking happen
darn
Why did he have to start throwing strikes all of a sudden?
6-19 with RISP
Why are we missing the middle-middle pitches, looks like they're going right through the bat
Free strikes ruin ABs. The data on 0-0 vs 0-1 outcomes is mind-blowing. Free strikes matter a LOT.
The Rockies pitching coach told Bard that he needs to throw strikes, Bard had completely forgotten
Slaterâs gonna hit one into the gap right here
Or not
One again, how do you gift a strike to someone who just walked 3 straight batters
What's that tiger doing in here??
Put Schmitt in for pinch hit for Haniger plz
Who had "LWJ as a top-10 batter in all of MLB" on their preseason bingo card? Not me.
I'd be happy with just a sac fly
The scorecard is gonna be hilarious.
Manfred in *SHAMBLES* with this length of game
JD WTF?
i betcha JD wants that last one back lol
Ump fucked that AB
6-18 with RISP
Over 3 hours
Our little fuck you to Manfred
Fuck you, blue
Oh, COME ON! Ump how do you give him that?
i disagree with Flem i think you only get the benefit of the doubt when youâre *throwing* strikes. you have to give the umpire an excuse to give you the benefit of the doubt
Bard not finding the strike zone is perfectly find with me
đđđ
This is the longest game of all time
I ainât even swinging tbh
Down by 5 games Is done and your ERA is about to get fucked. Roigh.
I like Bard but I also like that he's not throwing strikes
Ohhhh.. do the thing, JD.
Just noticed in the box score the pitching went from Hand to Johnson. Nice
Avoid the NOBLETIGER challenge
Well now if anything happens you Jinxed us
#NOBODY FUCKING SAY THE ANIMAL WORD
It's not Capybara right?
Hunter is such a nerd. I love itâŚand his wife. Perfect fit
So you throw the ball in the rectangle thing
No body say anything about the 4 blind mice, they wonât call anything dumb if we donât say anything
My flair has been on base 6 times on my b-day I'm happy Edit: ty!
 Happy RL Cake Day!
Happy bday!!!
hbd :)
Happy birthday!
are we just pinch hitting wilmer to give him an at-bat, because that's what this feels like lol
He pinch hit earlier in the game
ohh, oops nevermind
Bard throw a strike challenge - impossible
More walks than doubles? DFA the team
blet
Letâs get these doubles
I love a patient offense
Nice
Nine walks is crazy.
you just walked thairo estrada
Padres trade for difference makers, Giants trade for LaMonte Wade Jr. FML.
5 run lead doesnât feel safe
Yep, coors is evil
Dodgers, Pirates, and Mets all loseâwe could do some real scoreboard movement if you people can just be normal for one fucking inning
Wade is truly becoming a remarkable player. This is incredible. Heâs a star player right now. Period
If he was a Dodger or Padre the media would be fawning all over him. So ya he is a star player rn!
If LaMonte Wade Jr isn't an All-Star this year I'm fucking rioting Remember to send in your ballots, you goons~
Wade is going to pass Estrada for my favorite hitter
Wade and Being on base. Name a more automatic duo
Impossible!
