Glad the series is at home. We are an offensive juggernaut at AT&T. On the road we are just naught.

Home or road, if our pitchers can't beat these scrubs they're tossing out, only Bochy could lose any of these games.

Unless of Course Boach messes with the lineup. I can't believe he moved Benji back into the clean up spot.

I know his call to pully Lincecum in what should have been a Win is not that bad, but MUCKING WITH THE LINEUP when you don't have to?

Was he not at the last game up until he made the move? I believe in the Righty/Leftie system too since it keeps the guy on the bump slightly off balance should you make a move to PH. But damned if I know WTF he's thinking here.

Bochy doesn't even know what he's thinking.

Botch is such a non imaginative coach. He could be a Great Pitching coach but as a Manager he truly bites. Having said that we did pretty well in this home stand. 6-3. We could be a contender for real. Our starters, not counting Wellemeyer, are 11-2 with a 1.83 ERA. wow.

If you don't know what you are thinking how can you outsmart yourself?

Bochy

I have an erratic Sanchez at 80+ pitches who just walked a hitter and allowed a single for a 1st and 3rd situation after 2 were out.

I have Brandon Medders warming with a one run deficit (ok, I know I really don't have to go further than that, but)

Jason Giambi is the lefty hitter at .105 who flied out and HBP. I call for the right handed gas can so I can both pull Sanch before he qualifies and defy my own book stratagy and bring in the guy with the +2 whip

A walk and 3 straight singles later the score is 4-1 and the final out is recorded by running into it at 3rd before the 5th run would have been tallied.

Technically Medders never recorded an out.

BTW Aubrey Huff hit a HR in the ninth.
