Weird game.

Maholm sits 12 in a row, which is no suprise since we started Torres and Aurilia, we score one on the 'Panda-diversion', Bengie can't bend his knees to pick up strike three, Winn throws out the go-ahead run at home, Frandsen finally (and I mean finally) gets some good luck and Rowand **** up the game for Lincecum.

Finally got on a computer to check the game. I'm on Gilligan's Island with no cell phone reception and limited internet connection.

14th inning? What did I miss? And why is Aurelia still in the game?

Home run Howry. ****.

By far the worst loss of the year.

Rentería is horrible. Trade for Sanchez and move Uribe to short.

Let's see if they can score their first earned run of the series today. So far, 4 innings down the tubes.

Cainer's the only Giant with an extra base hit so far. If we're still in this, would anyone be opposed to bringing up Posey in September?

Cain has 7 K's thru 4 innings.

2 runners on 2 outs for Pittsburgh in the bottom of the 5th, 1-0 still.

More-so than the runs scored, I'm glad Cain's ok. Coming off that hit off his elbow, threw a four pitch walk right off the bat, I was a bit worried for a minute.

Giants win. Should've got at least 2 this series, but at least it's better than getting swept.

Sadowski will be added to the 25 man roster on Tuesday to make his start, so the Giants will have to cut a player. Please make that player be Aurilia. His time is done.

Sabean doesn't even have the brains and the balls to DFA Richie. Quite sad.
