Sorry mang. I just have watched the national media crap on the Giants even after game 1. Then now instead of saying the Giants Pitchers are just dealing filth I see a lot of "the Tigers are beating themselves" crap. It gets tired with the OOOO if not for this or that. Baseball is the ultimate game of skill and luck. That said its also about matchups. The Tigers stats were exaggerated to an extent playing in the worse division in the whole league. Given now that the #1 and #2 pitchers of the Giants are going against the #3 and #4 pitchers of the Tigers, I like the Giants chances to take one of the next 2 or possibly both. Unless they Pitch JV on short rest. The National media thinks the Tigers can all still magically start hitting. The Giants faced Pitchers like the Tigers in the last series, no ones mentioning that. The Tigers faced a horrible pitching line up against the Yankees. The Giants staff is very different and better then the Yankees. This is all so familiar to the Giants Rangers series. The old they are a joke they have no chance. They will get out pitched and hit.
It also drives me nuts that everyone is saying how great this team is. They managed just 88 wins in the worse division in baseball. Put them in the West or the East and they dont even make the dance. It just makes a lot of us out here shake our heads.
Rant over.
As to last night.
Got Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeem!!
Edit I take Boch as the better skipper also.
