Thank you Burrell, Kuo for hitting Posey, and Mota for one of his
best relief stints when our best relievers not available. Giants over
the years have done this do the bums on many an occasion. Too
bad Zito did not get the win. One mistake to the wrong guy. And
Burrell hit it off of their closer. Super win on the last day of
July giving the giants a super record for July, and it should have
been one game better except for that crappy ump that took the
game away from the giants and the mets avoided a sweep.

Bullshit! He pitched a hell of a good game and he got no support
from the team while he was in. Had he hung in longer, he might have
gotten the win, but that's how it goes. In any case, the Giants won
the game and the series.

If Cain wins tomorrow, it's icing on the cake for a team on the rise.

That was one of the sweetest games of the last seven years. Not only
did they win, and nothing is better than beating the bums, but they
went fifteen games over .500.

number 1, the post was made when he walked the pitcher on 4 pitches
after getting 8 straight outs. Maybe his pitch count would not be so
high
if he did not do chit like that. If Zito pitches like this all year
it would be
awesome. Too bad he did not get the win.

Lets hope Cain wins, instead of his usual pitching just good enough
to lose.
