I've seen games go perfect for 12 innings all for naught. I've seen no-hitters pitched on illicit drugs. Homer streaks lasting eight games and 20 run losses. I've seen pennants won and seasons collapse. All these memories will be lost in time. Like tears in the rain.

Time to die.

WHAT'S BOCHY'S FAULT? IT"S MOSTLY ROMO AS FAR AS I CAN FIGURE? I MEAN YOU CAN HARDLY fault Bochy for trusting Romo after everything he's done these past few years.

Ugh my voice I can't shout any more.

He's probably talking about Arias pinch-hitting for Crawford.

Edit: I really wish that they'd traded Lopez last year. He's completely useless now.

Oh yeah that thing.

I assume Bochy wanted to keep Crawford fresh for tomorrow? Because I literally can't imagine why else that would happen.

He didn't put Arias to pinch-run for Sandoval, but instead to hit for Crawford?

I've changed a lot since I started hanging with Sonic, but I can't depend on him forever. I know I can do this by myself! Okay, Eggman! Bring it on!

The only thing that can top this would be Homer Bailey no-hitting them again tomorrow, almost exactly a year after he did it the first time.

All that touted situational hitting! :shepface:

The pitching has been okay, the bench is awful and Sandoval and Morse have been cold. Hopefully Belt can come back and start hitting.

Arias officially better than Morse.

Fuck the DH
Everyone is slumping.

Er, sorry. EVERYONE IS SLUMPING, CALL KNBR FOR FRENZY NOW

I really have no opinion until after the ASB. Belt will be an improvement, but it's funny that there's nobody decent to hit leadoff based on the SABR on-base book or the old fashioned "speedy guy who steals" book. Because our speedy steelers are bad.

What are you talking about? Cain was fantastic. It's just the bullpen did what bullpens tend to do (this accounted for a fair amount of the lead they used to have, as the Dodgers bullpen was awful in April and May.)

Bochy said they'll talk about Romo staying as closer. Said if they have to make change, they will.

Maybe there's some hope, maybe th-ahahahaha nothing will change.
