Giants and Brewers have Sucking Contest, Brewers Suck Slightly Less, Win 3-2

Milwaukee Brewers catcher Wil Nieves waits for the throw as San Francisco Giants' Aaron Rowand scores during the eighth inning of a baseball game Saturday, May 28, 2011, in Milwaukee. Rowand scored from second on a hit by Pat Burrell.

Well, the Giants did the unthinkable today: scored two runs to come from behind and tie a ballgame late while fielding their absolute worst lineup. Imagine if their good players had been in there today! Well, anyway, it's good that they can break up a no-hitter and end up getting more hits than their opponent, even if they can't score any runs. It's the moral victories that matter, I suppose. Not more than actual victories, but you know. The Giants will take what they can get.

The rubber game is tomorrow and Brandon Belt is rumored to get some of those elusive "at-bats" the kids are always talking about these days. I hope he hits five home runs, one of which bounces back into the Giants dugout and breaks Aubrey Huff's hand or something.

  1. I worry that you are about a week away from advocating straight up assassination, friend.

  2. Also, how are the Giants five games over .500 with a -3 run differential? The Giants are probably magic, is my only explanation.
