Pablo didn't make it. It's all Charlie Manuel's fault. He better make Pablo the replacement for Beltran.

Lincecum, Sandoval, and Bowker are going to make game 1 an easy victory.

Vote people! Let's at least give visitors the impression that this is a well visited board.

I'm pretty pissed about Panda right now. I must have voted several hundred times for this thing.

The Padres are garbage this year and one of the few teams with less bats than the Giants. With Bowker in the lineup backing Sandoval, I see the Giants with the clean sweep.

I voted almost 100 times for Pablo. Literally. Screw the East Coast biased system. One fan = One vote! Pablo would have been in and way more deserving than Shane.

I finally get the watch a Giants game on TV! It's so rare to see the Giants play on TV down here in San Diego. ESPN has only televised one series with the Giants this season. So since they're playing the Padres, they'll be televising the game!

I just have to listen to the (Please Use More Appropriate Word) San Diego commentators. I wonder if the game would be more enjoyable if I muted the TV?

Woo! Back to back homers. And a base hit for Timmy!

Kevin Correia starts for the Padres now? It seems like just yesterday he was a "good" prospect for the Giants.

Jonathon Sanchez needs this game to solidify his spot in the rotation. I really hope he doesn't mess it up. Adrian Gonzalez is the only serious bat in that lineup. Should be an easy win, if he just stays patient.

Alright! 4 run 2nd inning! Keep it up!

Sandoval steals 2B! WOW!

Sandoval with a 440 ft. bomb in the bottom of the fifth! Clearly sending a message to that moron Charlie Manuel.

2 hit, 3 RBI, 1 SB thru 5

(I'm still steaming over the Werth decision and my wife just doesn't get it.)

Jonathon Sanchez with the no-no! If it wasn't for the fumbled error by Juan Uribe, it would have been the 18th perfect game in MLB history. Still a no hitter!

Cain injured? Oh no! Let's hope the x-rays turn out okay.

The hit looked like it hit Matty right above his right elbow. I'm hoping its just a bruise and nothing to do with the elbow of his throwing arm. The kid deserves a break.

Bone bruise on the arm. Day to day at this point, doesn't look too bad. ASB coming at a perfect time.

Fingers crossed.
