Heart breaker! Lincecum pitched sooo well...all the way to the ninth. His pitch count was way low, he had it going on, 7k's a 2 hit shutout, then bamb-bamb-bamb, next thing you know he gets the loss. Sad... Very Sad!
I hate to second guess Bochy but there is no way that i would have let Durham hit in the eighth. He was not seeing the ball well at all. That would have been a perfect time to pinch hit, Frasen maybe, or even Davis. Maybe if we would then have picked up those ducks on base, it very well may have broken their back. I know 20/20 vision and all but it looked like a obvious move to make at the time.

In my opinion, that loss falls 99% on Boch. At this point in the year, you do not let a rookie go into the 9th. Yes, he was awesome throghout the entire game but he has also logged a lot of innings and that is a very young arm. Bring in Henn or Wilson to start the 9th and the Giants win I strongly believe. I have not been empressed with Boch at all this year, which is surprising to me because I thought it was a good hire.

A complete shame if he is not the NL starter in the All-Star game. He has been the most dominate pitcher so far this season by a large margin. Period!

Large margin? Not really. He was third before his last start. I'd like to see Tim starting too, but to say Volquez doesnt deserve it is crazy.
