Plus they added slight fat j-o-k-e-s in there. Somethings like, he would have broke something doing that last year. That's bush league.

Doh With all my kids grown up and gone i've forgotten about ***** 1st, lol.

All the snide comments were pretty much aimed at the Giants from what i remember. You might expect that from some home team announcers but not on a national broadcast. We are very spolied listening to Kruk and Kuip along with Miller.

Remind me if i ever go to a Dodger game in LA to not wear my Giants shirt.

Lincecum really battled last night and for not being on his game pitched terrifically. He wasn't getting his usual k's but until the defense fell apart his pitch count was very low. Did you guys hear that comment Hershiser made when Belt was up in the 9th, he said Broxton shouldn't throw him anymore slider's and stick with his fastball because he (Belt) had a minor league slider bat speed (or something very similar), i was like WTH kind of comment was that. I really liked Belts approach at the plate, reminds me a lot of Posey in that he doesn't bail and is almost looking to go back up the middle or opposite field,has great patience as well and you can't really teach that, i can see him having a real nice year. While i'm at it i've got one more beef. I know tv is important but that start time was terrible! I couldn't hardly see what was going on the first 4-5 innings and can't imagine what it must have been like for the players.

thanks man, and would you beleive it that with Lincecum I pitched 7innings and had 5 k's. Only difference is I won 5-3. Yea I agree about Pelt at the plate and how he hangs in there and he has discipline too and doesnt swing at a lot of bad pitches. Lets get the win tonight and smash those Dodgers!

There you go fiction. What a shot. Dead center in LA. Nice.

Longhorns should be happy right now.

Wow he really Belted that one!

[tvman]

Well this game didn't turn out very well. Didn't seem to matter how or where they hit the ball it ended up being a hit.

Huff and Posey had a lot of opportunies but couldn't get it done. Here to a better next two games.

hehe I love how the ESPN guy on espn news just showed the highlight of Belts 3 run homer and said "dont mess with someone with the lastname Belt" haha. Yea I was really thinking Posey was gonna come through with the bases loaded but damn! And one other possitive to find in the game was Pablo's amazing catch in foul territoy!

Yes we are! In fact on one of the Longhorn forums I started a Belt thread and lots of people are commenting on it. I really hope some day to make it to SF for a game. I do have Longhorns season tickets for baseball atleast
