Who’s the fill in guy?

#weaklink at it again. But it's a pitcher's park so....oh wait, what? Never mind.

 

[Stokes1931]

Feeble bats

 

[Stokes1931]

Longo and Belt need to recover their homer swing in Cin.

 

[Stokes1931]

Giants have 12 groundouts and one fly ball out. Either this guy is a helluva pitcher, or..........

 

[Stokes1931]

Crappy hitting. Stellar pitching. Trill approved?

Nice to see Kelly doing better in the big leagues (so far) than at AAA this season.

Nah. He is pissed that they aren’t tossing a no-no. Unacceptable.

He fully expects Kelly to be DFA’d after the game. 4.1 from the starter? Are you serious?

I was surprised to see Kelly even pitch as long as he did considering he threw some relief just two days ago.

Kid did great given the circumstances.

Late notice and he just threw 2 innings a couple days prior. He had a lot of baserunners, but he didn’t let any of them score. Well done, kid.

Giants cuppos this year...

Rodriguez
Duggar
Moronta
Black
Suarez

Not a bad crop...

 

[calsnowskier]

Any idea who the fill in play-by-play guy is? What’s the story?

 

[calsnowskier]

???

That didn’t even look close.

Is he with NBCBA or something? Does he have any connection to the Giants, or is he just a pinch hitter called in from outside?

Seems he is only a pinch hitter. Supposed to call the Reds series and the first game in NY.
