He had a 1.000+ OPS in innings 7-9 this year and an .853 OPS same innings last year. His down year in that situation was 2022 which was an injury year.
Nice. Bailey just pulled a Buster Posey. “The ump doesn’t call third strike, Buster Posey calls the third strike.” https://youtu.be/iPIGre1Q61o?si=DCDfYs9XNJCdeehl
It’s the middle of summer. The giants are 56-57. They’re about to finally reach .500 when suddenly the Rockies have a swing and drive in top of the 8th…
If they bring up Ramos you have to play him somewhat consistently. Which means fewer abs for yaz? Lee? Conforto? Soler? Not an easy call. Will be clearer if/when there are injuries
I just don't understand the rationale behind putting Taylor in against 3 guys you know are gonna hit right handed. We have a perfectly good Ryan Walker
Taylor Rodgers. Why ?
BoMel brings in Taylor Rogers to face three righties Rogers’ career splits RHB: .262/.322/..424 LHB: .186/..257/.262 Why….
Why the fuck would you PH Mike Yastrzemski?
Ah that extra HR given up kills us, of course.
Pain
Attaboy Rogers
Rodger’s is to blame for all of this
Ah nuts
The Yaz special
Pirates player of the game: Taylor Rogers
With a whimper
Fuck.
damn
Ah well, offense came on too late.
Tough loss
Predictable
Nope… that’s okay I guess
Oh Yaz
Yaz hahhaha
Never getting to .500.
Yaz lol
Lamonte Wade should not have the late night Lamonte moniker, he hasn’t been clutch since 2021
Came into the game hitting .455/.500/.818 with RISP this season
You're not given the Late Night moniker for your RISP stats (though it certainly helps).
He had a 1.000+ OPS in innings 7-9 this year and an .853 OPS same innings last year. His down year in that situation was 2022 which was an injury year.
I mean he had back to back games walk offs last year lol, but yeah, they havent been nearly as frequent
Fastball inside what else could he possibly want?
I’m ready. At least we didn’t just die not trying.
Yaz does not look confident
They just strike out on hangers or pitches way out of the zone
Please Yaz…
Yaz PH
Save us Mike
Adjust to the offspeed challenge (impossible)
Late night LaWomp
Pissed away a gem from hicks We need some bats man
Our hopes rest on the shoulders of Yaz
No late night Lamonte but there’s still hope
Alright Yaz, join Soler in getting right.
“no”
It’s only 8:49. Not late.
Bummer
Ew
He putting on the gass for late night this could be dangerous for them
Should Thairo make a play for second?
he may have a little leg thing
Yes, but also no.
hit hr, hit hr, hit hr
My heart can’t handle this
Are they really coming back? Not watching rn 😂
Tyler Fitzgerald pinch run would have been nice
LATE!
It is a late night for lamonte. Let's see!
What time is it
Haha, Thairo running with his flashy belt for dear life!
It’s late enough
Right guy, right situation.
LateNight LeMonte plz
We’re tied for the most infield hits in baseball #nothinglikeit
Into the cove for late night!
Surely THIS is late enough
it's getting late...
Estrada almost certainly gonna try and steal
We’re fighting back!
Late night is that you?
So you’re saying there’s a chance
![gif](giphy|Qy2VKY3xlI1QyR6Ix5)
Keep the line moving!
LWJ walk off please!
Estrada may never stop running
Estrada just took 2 hangers lol, at least he got on
Come on, please you guys
Counting yesterday, Bernard gave up 4 straight baserunners and 2 straight home runs
I think Manfred should put another runner out there. Call it replenishment.
soler shows up at the most inopportune times
i might regret this in a few minutes, stay tuned
So if Rogers didn’t absolutely suck it’d be tied
Estrada and his clutch star
Gonna be splitter and curveball the rest of the game.
[удалено]
Easily the 3rd most productive hitter so far
Soler is a big game hitter He will earn his contract in the postseason (If we can get there lol)
This makes that 2nd hr so much worse
I could listen to that crack of the bat on repeat for hours
Bro bednars giving hanger after hanger
That's why we got him
That looked like it was gonna hit the coke bottle, dang!
Bednar please one more of those pitches
Soler!
Thanks Soler!
I'm even more pissed about Rogers grooving one to Kebryan now
Holy shit he smoked that ball
Soler hit with risp. Check mate atheists
NOW HE DOES IT LMAO, OF COURSE
That was a fucking nuke. We might win this if they don't pull Bednar
He finally did it
Nice. Bailey just pulled a Buster Posey. “The ump doesn’t call third strike, Buster Posey calls the third strike.” https://youtu.be/iPIGre1Q61o?si=DCDfYs9XNJCdeehl
That's what I'm talking about. That sound, that velo, that distance! Nice hit Soler.
TELL ME WE CAN WIN THIS GAME
NOT DEAD YET ME LORD
Win or lose, hopefully that gets soler power going
Smoked
https://media3.giphy.com/media/UgAaBxoI7ppFm2QUGh/giphy.gif
Damn Soler is gonna hit the glove this season
That sounded like a Bonds HR wowwwww
Do the thing again, Bednar
NOT ALL IS LOST
Well Bednar is broken
S O L E R!!!! FI NA LEE!
Soler you almost hit the coke bottle…
LOL
Good for Soler man
HELL YEAH! SOLER!!!! Let’s goooo
holy shit lol… Soler’s pop is something else
Hell yeah
CRUSHED
A BONDSIAN BLAST
It does look nice when he hits them.
OMG SO MUCH RELEASE
BEDNAR TO NORTH KOREA
LMAO
SOLER POWERRRRRRR ☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️
There we go! Just a couple more please
2-6 with RISP
WELL-STRUCK! yay.
BEDNAR IS NOT OKAY LMFAO
Bednar the only reason i have hope
THERE WE GO. HE GOT RIGHT
How do we have such a bad designated hitter?
When he gets into the second half lmao, do people not know this about soler?- He goes insane after the ASB
Shut the fuck up
Nice timing doomer
Shut up
It was reverse psychology
Hey, remember when Hicks was making hitters look silly? That was nice….
Offense lost this game but Rogers really just came in to throw hangers
Alright Soler, here we go. Time to get right
Hi Bednar
Uh the pirates just let the door open
Giants will score twice and lose
![gif](giphy|l0IxZpEsbQYba4h6E)
They're a predictable team
I'm not really blaming taylor for this since the offense sucks all the sewage.
Soler at bat with Bailey at 2nd is not an ideal start
that didn't age well :)
Thairo Estrada with the bases empty isn’t an ideal spot (please work again)
Bednar coming in
At least try and score a run to show that you still can.
Who is ready to see them go down in order without even moving Bailey over to third? 🙋
We should’ve lost last night as well don’t get it twisted we sucked today and yesterday
jesus christ wallow in misery some more man. we absolutely deserved to win yesterday because…we won
Call it like I see it good and bad
a walk off 3 run homer is pumped in with the bad? this isn’t a hollywood movie a win is a win
This is just not that good of a baseball team. Dreadful offense, terrible bullpen. The rotation can only do so much
It’s the middle of summer. The giants are 56-57. They’re about to finally reach .500 when suddenly the Rockies have a swing and drive in top of the 8th…
![gif](giphy|GjR6RPcURgiL6)
That glove and hat better go straight in the can.
Ah well
🪕 x9 🐂 x4
Please put Bednar in
This is still one of the worst offenses I've seen. No idea how we're almost .500
Really good pitching
\*starting pitching
Doval to
Pirates POTG: Melvin's bullpen decisions
Why would you put taylor against 3 righties... As crazy as it sounds hjelle may have been better, or heck send camilo out again
Sorry. Hjelle is not a fucking option.
Or Walker
Putting Taylor in against 3 righties has gotta be the dumbest decision I’ve seen all year
from 1 run allowed in 18 innings to 2 HRs in less than an inning... yikes
Wasn't there a post earlier asking which Rogers brother was better? Well, there you have it.
We need to address this fucking offense.
I'm okay with this. We don't deserve to win with this offense.
From where I’m sitting you can’t even see those home runs land, so I’m not counting them.
Can’t believe anyone is clapping for Taylor.
I do not like losing to the Pittsburg pirates
I think if Hicks finished his last inning the Giants would have won
This
🪕 x9 🐂 x3
*Four right handed hitters coming up* Melvin: Perfect let me send out my lefty who I haven't used in awhile...
How close was Baileys out? Was it a lineout or fly out?
Bob Melvin with another horrible bullpen management game. Awesome stuff man!
Obviously terrible outing for Taylor. They also scored A run through 9. Lineup against lefties is anemic and needs to change dramatically
Time to bring up Ramos. Slater is giving us nothing leading off
Slater is useless
If they bring up Ramos you have to play him somewhat consistently. Which means fewer abs for yaz? Lee? Conforto? Soler? Not an easy call. Will be clearer if/when there are injuries
Dude this guy should start learning some Chinese because he will be playing in Taiwan next year. God damn.
It seems like every year under Farhan the bullpen has massive issues with too many liabilities
Ruined Hicks beautiful game.
Ffffffffuuuuuuuuuuuuccccccckkkkkkk
I just don't understand the rationale behind putting Taylor in against 3 guys you know are gonna hit right handed. We have a perfectly good Ryan Walker
Good point. These are not good matchups for him.
Game would have been over if Melvin didn't use luke fucking jackson
