  2. Only walked one man. This is the first no-hitter in post season since Don Larson's perfect game in 1956 and the second post season no-no in history. Oh, btw, this was his first post season appearance and the team he no-hit is the best hitting team in the National League. He also pitched a perfect game in May. What a pitcher!
  3. yes thank you, mm!
  4. The New York "somethings' is hilarious. The Yankees are the greatest franchise in American sports history and I hate them! Well, except for Yogi. Welcome to the sport!
  5. We won 3-0. The broadcasters all year had a phrase: "Giants baseball, torture!" It sure fit this weekend.
  6. George Clooney That was one heck of a wave at the end!
  7. Just saw him in Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland I do not recommend the movie but I do think Depp's performance as the Mad Hatter is great
  8. The Rocks are out of it and San Diego has had our number all season if not longer But, things are getting very strange - The Giants are one ahead of the Padres for the NL western division title. The Padres are tied with Atlanta for the wild card. If Atlanta wins tomorrow and San Diego wins, the Giants play San Diego on Monday for the division title but all three are tied on the last day? Who gets the wildcard berth? Whoever loses the playoff game (considered a regular season game) is now percentage points behind Atlanta. My head is spinning! The Giants have a long history of breaking my heart going back to the 1962 World Series (McCovey lines to Richardson with two out and Matty Alou on third and Willie Mays on second with two out in the bottom of the ninth and down by one run). sigh But I will tell ya, this team has no real established position player stars but it may be my favorite Giants "team" of all time. It is a great bunch of overachievers (and underachievers) with an excellent pitching staff. This team was 7 and 1/2 games back in August. It has been a fun season.
  9. I was fortunate to see many NL legends in my youth. The A's had not moved to Oakland yet so I never got to see Mantle and Berra and so many more but I did get to see Musial once, he hit a triple to beat the Giants. I am with you. A one to nothing pitchers duel is a nail biter. So many fans these days want lots of runs, lots of homeruns. I prefer the NL style where the pitcher still bats. I won't be surprised if the football lovers/baseball haters razz you about this but I for one understand what you mean! My Giants are getting beat again by the pads.
  10. Not many know that Bruce Lee was in this flick. I used to be a B. Lee nut.

  23. The Flintstones yabba dabba whatever
  24. As I heard on Fox's Saturday broadcast against San Diego, he is expected to eventually be a starter. Great stuff! I had not heard that one before. My boss is a big Yankees fan and I will "pitch" that at him tomorrow. Gee I wish I had brought that up first.
