4/2/13: Giants Strike Late, Beat Dodgers

Tuesday, April 2, 2013 Dodger Stadium

Final score: Giants 4, Dodgers 1 MVP: SS Brandon Crawford, Giants: 1-4, 1 double, 2 RBI, 1 run

The Giants threw together a late-inning rally, pushing across 1 run in the 7th inning to tie the game and 3 in the 9th to take the game and even the series with a 4-1 win. Hyun Jin Ryu largely held the Giants bats in check, striking out 5 and scatting 6 hits over 6 innings, but was pulled after allowing back-to-back singles to lead off the 7th, and the Giants took advantage of the switch to the bullpen, with a 1-out single to tie the game up at 1, and then a 3-run 9th against reliever Kevin Gregg* to turn the tides of the game. Brandon Crawford came through with the crucial hit in the 9th, smacking a 2-out double to right that drove in the go-ahead and first insurance run, before eventually scoring a second insurance run. The Dodgers bats were equally quiet against Madison Bumgarner (6 innings, 5 strikeouts, 2 hits), but were able to break through for a 4th inning run on 2 hits and a wild pitch; however, Bumgarner and the Giants' bullpen were able to bear down and keep the Dodgers off the scoreboard the rest of the way.

SF 4/10/0 – WP: Santiago Casilla (1-0); S: Sergio Romo (1) LAD 1/5/0 – LP: Kevin Gregg (0-1)

LAD 4th: Mark Ellis drops a lead off single into center, and Matt Kemp follows with a double to left; Madison Bumgarner uncorks a wild pitch that plates Ellis; Bumgarner then forces a pop-out to second, a line-out to first, and a fly ball to center to end the inning without any more damage being done. 1-0 LAD SF 7th: Buster Posey bloops a lead off single to left of Hyun Jin Ryu; Hunter Pence follows with a single to center; the Dodgers make a pitching change, and after a strike out, Andrés Torres singles to right, driving in Posey; the Dodgers make another pitching change and get a strikeout and fly to left to end the inning with runners on the corners. 1-1 SF 9th: Buster Posey smacks ball off the wall in the right that takes an awkward bounce and rolls around for a bit, allowing him to make it in with a lead off stand up triple; after a line out to 3rd, pinch-hitter Brandon Belt walks to put runners at the corners; a fly out to center is the 2nd out of the inning; Brandon Crawford smashes a 2-run double to right; pinch-hitter Grégor Blanco follows up his with his own RBI double to right. 4-1 SF

*Note: Kevin Gregg did not pitch in this game. Or any game for the Dodgers this season (or ever, for that matter) - he would be released on April 3 (after being signed in February) and then signed by the Cubs on April 14, for whom he would pitch the rest of the season. But hey, the Dodgers needed a pitcher in this game, and Gregg was technically "on the roster" (his card was; using the cards, I have more than 25 players on the roster, so that technically is some sort of illegality, but I haven't made the effort to truly figure out call-up/send-down dates) - I figured, at best/worst, he has an implosive inning and it gives the Dodgers a reason to release him. Now, if he'd pitched a solid performance, it would've been harder - but, I guess, I could've just pitched him a couple more times - technically, he doesn't have to be on the Cubs for another 10 days. Thankfully, it didn't come to that - I can just make up some fictional story about this outing leading to his release.

(Strat note: Nick Punto followed up his golden sombrero from the first game by having 1 pinch-hit at-bat in this game ... and striking out. 2015-2016 Chris Davis, he is not, but man is he trying early here. Only 2 walks - and 1 hit batter - today, which might be the lowest I've had in a game.)

San Francisco 1-1; Los Angeles 1-1 Next game in replay: CLE (Masterson, 0-0) @ TOR (Dickey, 0-0)

Mark Bumgarner gown, Etro belt, Aurelle by Leshna Shah jewelry

[critic-corner]

Madhuri Dixit at Lux Golden Rose Awards 2017 : I found this Mark Bumgarner gown good enough on the model but Madhuri couldn’t fully sell it to me. Also, that Etro belt came off as rather pointless!

The latter was remade as a 1994 movie with Mel Gibson in the title role.

Upon his return, Garner looked up an old friend who had become a producer during his absence. The friend, Paul Gregory, gave Garner his first acting job in the stage production of "The Caine Mutiny Court Martial."

His popularity was secured in the 1950s hit television series "Maverick." He also went on to star in another successful series, "The Rockford Files," for which he was awarded an Emmy. To this day, there is still a demand for more episodes with Garner as the Malibu private investigator.

52, the one and only Andrew Suarez

thank you, i hope you like this story! again, i went over 100 words, but how couldn’t i!? aha~

Gen’s Drabble Challenge

Andrew Suarez

“Broken”

           Andrewblinked at his manager. “Sir?”

           Bochypressed his lips together in a grim smile. “Sorry, kid. Dereck’s coming off theDL. I can’t have you both start onFriday.”

           Andrewblinked. He wanted to laugh at himself for tearing up like a child. “Oh, okay,yeah. Makes sense.”

           “You’llget your chance to start for this team again. I promise.”

           Andrewquickly nodded. He had the urge to bolt. “Thank you, sir.”

           Atlast, Bochy left him alone in the locker room. Andrew’s sigh came outquivering. Without making it to the bench, he pressed his back to the wall andslid until he was sitting. He rested his forehead on his knees and folded hisarms over his head.

           Who am I kidding? he judged himself, tremblingas if freezing cold. He’s just humoringme. I played a horrible, horrible game today. All this other talent on the team…I can’t compete with Bumgarner and theirgolden boy Rookie of the Year nominee…things won’t ever be the way they werebefore.

           Perhaps he should have justenjoyed it while it lasted. Debuting, starting as a pitcher, dominating.Perhaps it was only that: a moment, now only a memory.

           Inno time, he’d be back in the minor leagues. Just like his friend Kelby.Forgotten. Brushed aside for the next up and coming pitcher. Their precious Dereck, Pudge’s kid. Ugh…

           Perhapsit was just his anxiety talking. Here and now, however, alone in the clubhouse,with nobody else to talk to, he was listening to that anxiety.

           Heyielded to that brokenness he felt inside him, and wept.

‘Introduction to Kansas City’: San Francisco columnist kicks off Super Bowl trash talk

SAN FRANCISCO — A San Francisco columnist has taken the first swing at the metaphoric city-bashing pinata, writing a “beginner’s introduction to Kansas City” for 49er fans.

The column, written by Scott Ostler of The San Francisco Chronicle, is titled “The 49ers guide to Kansas City, the Soccer Capital of America.”

Ostler wrote it as a partial comparison between Kansas City and The Golden City. He gives cheeky descriptions of Kansas City points of pride, like barbecue, fountains and the Royals.

“BBQ is the only food available in Kansas City,” Ostler wrote. “So yes, culinary preferences are determined by how you like to mix your ketchup and sugar.”

Here are some other notable points:

Ostler wrote Kansas City is owned by famed San Francisco Giants pitcher Madison Bumgarner, who shutout the Royals in Game 6 of the 2014 World Series. In case you need a reminder, Kansas City won the World Series the very next year.

He said the Great Flood of 1951 that devastated the stockyards helped to make the city “smell better for a few days.”

Ostler wrote that Kansas City is a leading exporter of sports teams. The Kansas City A’s left for Oakland, and the Kansas City Kings left for Sacramento.

And he joked that Kansas City’s many fountains are best used for washing barbecue off of your hands.

Interestingly, he didn’t try to find a flaw in the Chiefs, other than to say they’ve only won the Super Bowl once in the last 50 years. But he had no qualms about poking fun at KC’s barbecue. Maybe that’s because the two cities aren’t competing in a barbecue contest anytime soon.

FOX4 will air Super Bow LIV at 5:30 p.m. CT on Feb. 2, where the Chiefs will play the 49ers.
