We are actually 52-23 at home this year...42-30 away. That is quite a difference. |

After a horrendous April start, Castillo has been a true ace, racking up nothing but quality starts. This was always going to be a tough game. Need to get to their suspect bullpen to win this. |

I like our chances in the Scherzer game...But, I'm not convinced about Kershaw. He got out of last game with just 1 ER, but was getting hit hard...He had the luxury of the other team's hits finding gloves. |

ATL can't keep their 2 run lead for even 1 out. Giants magic baby! |

Braves take the lead with a 3 run shot in the top of the 9th. PLEASE HOLD |

2 out 2-2 count bottom 9th and ADIOS PELOTA.

You’re right man. Giants magic.
I stopped tracking the score a while ago when giants were up 4-2.
So I guess I can take solace in the fact that it’s going extra innings.
Hope the Braves can pull it out
Edit: they couldn’t even advance the bleeping runner. Useless F’s

Solano is a freaking singles hitter and he hits the home run. I swear this Giants team can do nothing wrong. |

Wow, even their pinch hitter pitcher can execute a sacrifice fly. Wow.
What a dumb Braves reliever. Dude makes a throwing error on a pickoff attempt at 2nd, for some dumb reason. High risk extremely low reward. |

It’s as if the giants are able to cast a spell on their opposition to make them play as dumb as possible |

Gausman is hitting 25 points higher than Bellinger on the year and has the same amount RBIs in the last week, yet we still keep throwing Cody out there, and in spots other than 8 or 9. We deserve to lose the division.
Cody is worth -1.6 WAR this year. If we still had Joc or Kiké, we’re at worst tied or in the best case up like 4 games (Kiké). It’s hard to comprehend how bad Cody has hurt us this year, both batting and fielding. |

The one solace I have is that I know that this clutch magic/luck can't last forever for them, and I'm betting it reverses at the worst possible time (i.e. playoffs). |

You’re right. This magic won’t last in the playoffs. Maybe it will but it won’t be enough.
Still it is insane what they are doing. 2017 Dodger magic..except we had twice the talent. |

Wait, he’s hurt us fielding too? Isn’t he out best centerfielder or do we have someone better? |

BBref says he’s been worth -0.2dwar. Fangraphs thinks he’s been a little better. |

Someone mentioned this a couple weeks ago and I was shocked too. I automatically assumed he was still + in CF and that’s why we were trotting him out. Makes this whole thing even worse.
Btw I’m happy to see Seager and Muncy swap. Seager is getting in base a ton and Muncy is our best power guy. Makes sense and should’ve happened a week ago. |

Yeah, but if we have no one better then can we say he's hurting us in the field though? |

There's almost assuredly some random bat in AAA who can do better. It's hard to put into word just how bad Bellinger has been this year. He's had a historically awful season. |

Did you guys hear about the Beli injury? Is it an IL stint, or is he done for the season? |

Offensively, no doubt. I'm just talking in the field, if we have no one else that can play centerfield better, even with his -0.2dwar, can we say he's hurting us in the field? |
