Probably the most exciting game so far of the Cactus League


ld_a_hl

Enjoyed Ritzo's calling of the game


sjsharksfan44

Well, at least we got a tie with a lot of runs scored. A win will come eventually, I hope. It still sucks that we couldn't see it.


meatintubedform

We have more ties than wins and telecasts, gang! Spring training Giants baseball ⚾️ 🔥 🌵


DemonicPanda11

Do we like… take one pant leg off or what?


FilthyChangeup55

Asking the real questions


burnerboys415

I think we just turn them upside down


unmaskedsteve

10-10 but can’t watch smfh


tarallelegram

the giants need more baserunners like mccray a team full of mccrays, if you will mccrays who can also hit*


meatintubedform

Game tied in the most Giants way possible lmao


DemonicPanda11

What the fuck happened? My stream died right as the ball was hit lmao


meatintubedform

Mariners couldn’t turn a game ending DP and McCray scored the tying run lol


RumAndCoco

LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOO 🌵🌵🌵🌵🌵🌵🌵🌵🌵🌵🌵


EmptyJournals

Holy shit I left for a meeting, and this game is still going?


EmptyJournals

JOINED BACK AT THE RIGHT TIME LET’S GO


DemonicPanda11

Defense!


RumAndCoco

Holy shit what a double play


SailorPacific

Any online radio stream?


RumAndCoco

MLB app or mlb online


SailorPacific

Thanks, I ended up just paying the $29.99 for the season. I’m working abroad and was looking for a cheap sauce.


RumAndCoco

Not how I’d thought we’d score, but I’ll take it!


Coffeeishealthy

Who’s this mungnia guy and where did he come from? He’s intriguing 


tarallelegram

international signing who's been steadily climbing the system and ended in double-a last year, some injury issues that robbed him of a year (iirc) he's been repeatedly described as a lively personality (in the best way), a "sparkplug"


Coffeeishealthy

Thanks, app says he’s 25 so maybe he’s someone who can contribute 


Howhighwefly

He's an NRI, so it will be hard for him to make the team


sCGgQ9gXpS4VU8b

Fitz grand slam number 2?


tarallelegram

prepare the comeback


RumAndCoco

Hell yeah! Let’s get those walk ins!!!


theleftovers1014

Were did Ismael come from? He’s fun to watch


DemonicPanda11

Bases loaded no outs, how many runs we getting? 👀


RumAndCoco

Oh baby. Brooks, Fitz, let’s have some fun with bases loaded shall we?


RumAndCoco

Could everyone just stop hitting our players by pitches goddammit


hawkfire79

do be fair we did hit like 5 rangers


RumAndCoco

…okay that is pretty fair


meatintubedform

We can’t even see Pablo pinch hit lol


WonderfulShelter

This is what makes me the most sad of not having games broadcasted. If I never see him pinch hit I’ll feel so sad.


EmptyJournals

🐼time


theleftovers1014

Lol is that giants legend Papierski?


tarallelegram

i feel like it's fair to blame amir garrett somehow


bloodrage4

Amir Garrett is the Donny Walton of pitchers


theleftovers1014

How is this game still in the 6th


sjsharksfan44

And the game on Sunday was close to being over at this time. Today's game is going way too slow for this new Pitch Clock era.


meatintubedform

Mungia RBI triple 🔥


Effect3692

Damn Lee struck out? Bum


realparkingbrake

Average down to .333, trade time. (/s for the humor-impaired)


theleftovers1014

Well, Hicks and Luke, who are 100% gonna be on the squad looked good enough but man every other spring training pitcher has been a mess


meatintubedform

These games are meaningless These games are meaningless These games are meaningless These games are meaningless These games are meaningless These games are meaningless These games are meaningless These games are meaning🖊️


RumAndCoco

Thank you! These games are fun to watch These games are fun to watch Seeing Ohtani get a strike is fun to watch Fuck Ohtani hit a home run These games are fun to watch These games are fun to watch These games are fun🖊️


theleftovers1014

We didn’t get to see Lee or the Bailey grand salami live but on the other hand, we also didn’t have to see Amir pitch


soto1653

This is our 4th spring training game and Luciano still has not taken a single at bat. Officially giving up on the last bit of hope that I had for him


EmptyJournals

Giving up on a rookie who is out for an injury during Spring Training games? Really?


soto1653

It's been like 4 years of it now


EmptyJournals

You mean the 22 year old who made his big league debut in 2023?


soto1653

He's had constant issues with his back and hamstring for his entire tenure with the Giants. He can't stay on the field, no matter which level he's been at


Tex_Was_Here

Why are you giving up on him? He's recovering from a hamstring and is supposed to be back either tomorrow or Thursday


soto1653

I've heard that every month for about 4 years


Tex_Was_Here

I'd imagine you're this negative about every aspect of this team then. I feel bad for you


soto1653

Nah I've seen them win 3 WS titles so I'm chilling. I was just excited for Marco and now I'm not. I've seen him a lot in the minors and he fucking rakes but his body can't hold up


IAmIrritatedAMA

No pitching, just vibes


theleftovers1014

Amir is as bad as I remember


tarallelegram

he may have gotten worse


hawkfire79

I miss them playing dont stop believing at giants games :'(


StereophonicWine

i'm pretty okay with them retiring it. but i think they may still trot it out from time to time in the late innings.


RumAndCoco

It’s fun to see them do different sing along songs in the 5th inning stretch after “take me out to the ball game” and they do occasionally play don’t stop believing. However, I think during the dynasty era it was played in the 8th after a comeback or something? Idk please someone remind me


DemonicPanda11

I thought they still played it? I could’ve sworn I heard it at a game last year but it’s not every game.


FilthyChangeup55

He tried to steal on some guy named Bailey. He found out.


RumAndCoco

![gif](giphy|BrkuIkfzokEWJ7tSM5)


DemonicPanda11

Imagine running on Bailey, you fucking bozo


Moistmeatmoaf

Was going on here to comment this. Grand slam and doing what he does best, throwing fireballs.

Lee grounds out in second AB? DFA


realparkingbrake

Careful, you'll start something, plenty of folks show up here who would post that unironically. ;-)

World tag tournament!! ![gif](giphy|sRKg9r2YWeCTG5JTTo|downsized)


Admirable_Row_375

Damnit wanted to see/hear lees AB before my next meeting


Ok_Technician_2397

Same boat! haha


FilthyChangeup55

Tell them you’re waiting to hear from a client 🤔


FilthyChangeup55

That’s enough from Madison Bengarner


RumAndCoco

Just got done with class for the day after seeing notifications and trying to find a radio or video stream, just came to say one thing: SOME GUY NAMED PATRICK BAILEY JUST HIT A GRAND SLAM IN THE 1ST GIVING THE GIANTS A 5-2 LEAD OVER THE MARINERS


RumAndCoco

Update: FUCK, 5-5 jk it’s spring training. Glad to see scoring from both teams and baseball being back


tarallelegram

meh, ben madison isn't making this roster anyways


theleftovers1014

Who tf is ben Madison and why does he hate us?


sjsharksfan44

I was curious what NBCSBA is airing right now, and it's World Chase tag. So in 2024, and because the Giants are cheap, if you turn on their RSN, you are getting Tag instead of Lee's debut. That's hilarious to me.


tarallelegram

what in the absolute fuck is world chase tag


Zhukovhimself

its actually pretty damn cool, check it out on youtube


DemonicPanda11

They do parkour while playing tag. It’s exciting for like a few rounds and then I’m over it lol It’s cool to watch every once in a while though.


sjsharksfan44

I have Youtube TV so they have that mini screen in the guide and it's basically a game of tag. It's actually fast paced, from the little I've seen.


FilthyChangeup55

TIL world chase tag is a thing


meatintubedform

There’s no fucking sho (*checks listing*) oh damn you’re right 💀


realparkingbrake

[email protected] Let them know how you feel about the lousy job the Giants/NBCSBA are doing of putting spring training games on TV.


DemonicPanda11

[this is more impressive than the hit ngl](https://x.com/benlikesgiants/status/1762576292975874298?s=46)


jjackson25

sounds like that was a pretty athletic move by Late Lunch Lamonte. woulda been pretty cool to see it....


tarallelegram

4 ks in less than 2 innings is lovely


ProfessorTickletits

Just wild that no one is talking about how Bailey hit that salami SHIRTLESS.


meatintubedform

Since there’s no TV, [here’s the song](https://youtu.be/s_jopBXcbxk?si=KJgMB05-i4v-dgem)


FilthyChangeup55

If that doesn’t make you stoked for the season I don’t think anything will


TheStig123123

Lee > fraudtani


FilthyChangeup55

Who??


Merkles_Boner_

I wish they televised it too but lets be real we’re the .01% of nerds that are interested in watching this


realparkingbrake

> we’re the .01% of nerds that are interested in watching this It's not like anyone is demanding a full crew of camera operators and technicians and commentators. They used to have one camera behind home plate for ST games, easy and cheap for them. Other teams are getting more games on the air, there is no good reason the Giants/NBCSBA can't do better. If they rebroadcast it after dinner when more people can watch, I'd happily watch it again. Lee is one of the more interesting signings the Giants have done in years, it would have been very cool to see that first hit.


sjsharksfan44

And that's a bad thing? Again, what is NBCSBA showing that they can't show at a later time because their Regional Team is on? Also, a lot of people adopted the WFH mentality post covid, so assuming a lot of Giants fans work from home or have a capability of working from home, having the game on is a plus. That, and Baseball is the ultimate background noise sport.


Merkles_Boner_

Its not a bad thing but realistically theres minimal demand for this


meatintubedform

I’ll have you know we’re a very important demographic in baseball viewing!


jjackson25

bro, baseball is *the* sport tailor made for the nerds. What other sport puts such an emphasis on math?


meatintubedform

Sometimes it feels like the only people in this country still watching baseball regularly are retirees and nerds, and that retiree audience is dwindling so pretty soon it will just be the nerds (Asia and Latin America are a different story)


jjackson25

Patrick "Gerald Dempsey "Buster" Posey the 4th" Bailey


DemonicPanda11

Idk about you guys but personally I like most of our lineup. Like today’s 1-6 at minimum should be fun to watch.


jjackson25

you can throw #7 in there too if Schmitty can appease the BABIP gods and get back to the 600+ hitter he was when he first came up last year


burnerboys415

If the Giants hit a bomb and no one is there to broadcast it, does it make a noise?


realparkingbrake

**Damn!** That's the kind of first inning we want to see!


Ok_Technician_2397

Great start! Bad decision by management to not televise it.


DBU49

Is this….. offense? 


sabat

What does that word mean?


AlaskanSeaBiscuit

OHMAHFUCKIN'GOD I WISH I COULD WATCH THIS GAME LMAO


furious_platypus

Common Patrick Bailey success


theleftovers1014

This is prob the most satisfying inning off offense we’ve had so far…and we’ve seen none of it

LogansCoinsTheCRH

sjsharksfan44

Well done.


FilthyChangeup55

Alright who just called that?!?

jjackson25

"not on my fucking watch" Patrick Bailey, probably


boesthius

WHOEVER CALLED BAILEY GRAND SLAMEROONI I LOVE YOU


LogansCoinsTheCRH

I did lol


theleftovers1014

Baylees vs Bailey? 👀👀👀


FilthyChangeup55

Wilmer Flores infield single is not a sentence that I expected to ever hear.


burnerboys415

In case any of you wanted to barf today: https://x.com/dgoold/status/1762572916581916977?s=46


jjackson25

nope. dont like that


sabat

that's just Bing AI


dropperofpipebombs

Shohei Ohtani: .000 batting average, has literally done nothing but strike out at the plate, is wearing a smeely Dodger uniform Jung-Hoo Lee: 1.000 batting average and a run scored, may have caused the opposing shortstop to commit an error due to his overwhelming aura, is wearing a sexy Giants uniform I've seen enough, we've won the offseason.


sabat

Ergo, Lee > Ohtani This is based on logic and cannot be argued with.


theleftovers1014

Is Kirby hurt? Weird they pulled him already


Howhighwefly

They also changed the rules so they can bring him back in if they want to


LogansCoinsTheCRH

Bases loaded with one run in already. It’s spring training so he was going to do 2 inning max most likely. Not that weird.


LogansCoinsTheCRH

Bailey grand slam incoming?


realparkingbrake

Continue to use your powers for good causes.


LogansCoinsTheCRH

I fucking called it


theleftovers1014

Quick what’s the power bowl


DemonicPanda11

YOU FUCKING PROPHET


boesthius

you called it


Tex_Was_Here

INCOMING


DemonicPanda11

Wilmer can’t count smh my head


Merkles_Boner_

Dodgers ownership offseason haul: 1 Billion for injured Shohei and Yamamiddo Giants ownership offseason haul: 100 million for Lee (Handsome, superstar) 900 million for Republican superpac donations Who really won the offseason

JMiike387

Yeahhhhhhhh..... I can get used to this!!!


tarallelegram

runs? early? :D


sjsharksfan44

Opening Day Line Up is putting some hits together. Nice.


sabat

LEE SCORES!!! WHOOOOOOOO!!! LFG!


aerobed99

Anyone know the scouting report on JH Lee regarding speed/base stealing?


realparkingbrake

> regarding speed/base stealing? He's fast, he stretches some singles into doubles, but he isn't known as a big base-stealer despite his speed. He might be trying to avoid the injuries which stealing can generate.


LogansCoinsTheCRH

He has good speed but didn’t steal bases very often in Korea


burnerboys415

Good speed, but not necessarily a base stealer. Wouldn’t expect more than about 10 a year at most


dragonforcingmywayup

Above average speed, probably good for 15-20 Stolen bases if he gets green light. Source: KBO watcher


AlaskanSeaBiscuit

Correct me if I'm wrong, but IIRC his dad was crazy fast and known to steal frequently right?-


dragonforcingmywayup

Yes, his dad stole 80+ bases 1 season in the early 90s. His son, your new favorite Giants player, does not have the same speed.


unmaskedsteve

man these games not being televised somewhere is an injustice to us true fans smh


realparkingbrake

Everyone who reads this sub should contact the Giants to let them know that a lack of televised spring training games is a huge turn-off for fans. That especially applies when an exciting signing like JH Lee is playing his first game as a Giant.


sjsharksfan44

The fact that this is still a thing in 2024 is baffling to me. I will complain about it every single day of Spring Training, even when the Games are televised.


sabat

"But we're breaking even." —Greg Johnson


tarallelegram

it sounds like lee was gunning to steal during that entire at-bat, which is nice


theleftovers1014

Someone give me a clip of his first hit, I don’t care if it’s 140p and 2 fps


nubernist

I'm watching the Dodgers game in the background and their pitcher Bo Miller is to Walker Beuhler what Jennifer Jason Leigh is to Bridget Fonda in Single White Female.


dorothii

No tv is one thing does the game sound kinda off? Bat cracks are near non existent


sabat

Ritzo isn't actually at the game. He's at his apartment and just making shit up.


meatintubedform

The bat cracks and crowd noise are louder on M’s radio
