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

Giants have 6 broadcasters, but they can’t fill 3 seats?

Fleming is doing LLWS.
Miller is doing personal biz, I assume?
Kruk has certain parks he will not do because they are not handicapped friendly. I guess GAB is one one those?
Where is JA?

I understand its getting late in the season and the bullpen has thrown a lot but isn't it a bad day for Bochy to be conservative on his relievers' pitch counts? He's used 5 guys, with only Blach and Smith left in the bullpen. Considering that the team is short a player today and there are only 3 other starters on the roster, he's running dangerously short on pitching for this game.

Belt and Longoria having some awful at bats tonight.

Nope.

It sucks when you can't hit, it looks like you aren't trying. More wasted stellar pitching. .500 team.

Nope.

Black!

Black pitched one batter too many. Hard to blame the pen, the hitting was awful.

He either has been used too much recently or the league is starting to figure him out.

“Hey, this guy throws hard.”

“Got it.”
