Game Thread: June 20-23, 2022 - San Francisco Giants at Atlanta Braves

Fried is on the mound and picked off a guy in the first.

D'Arnaud homered.

We lead, 1-0.

 

[selmaborntidefan]

Six innings in the books.
Fried needs more run support.
Still 1-0 us.

 

[DzynKingRTR]

Pitchers duel tonight, although we got their pitcher to 100 pitches thru 6 innings

 

[selmaborntidefan]

We are on the verge of wasting another Fried start.

Bases loaded, nobody out.

And now that the barn is a raging inferno, here comes Manager NumbNutz.

 

[DzynKingRTR]

Good lord that was close. Tied @ 1

 

[CB4]

Two on, nobody out. Bottom of 8th and tied 1-1. Don’t you at least attempt to bunt them over with Swanson?

I’m sorry. I’ll go put on my parachute pants and groom my porn ‘stache because clearly I’m living in the 1980’s…..

 

[selmaborntidefan]

Arcia for the win!

 

[DzynKingRTR]

Arcia has been great as Albies replacement.

Well that was the first inning I have watched in 3 weeks. Y’all are welcome

 

[selmaborntidefan]

It was a good game, too.

 

[81usaf92]

I wish we would get rid of replay. Because that was the exact same call as the damn Phillies call and again they ruled against us.

 

[BhamToTexas]

A little home run derby tonight!

 

[DzynKingRTR]

Acuna might be finding his rhythm again.

 

[CB4]

Rogers reminds me of the old Brave Cecil Upshaw. Only difference is Upshaw would throw his “submarine curveball” at about 78 mph and it would “spin like a top” in the middle of the plate.

It would usually come to rest somewhere near Macon.

 

[DzynKingRTR]

This looks like one of those games where both teams will hit double digits runs

 

[BhamToTexas]

Wow that was a heck of a rally! Dansby got it started with a HR. Big tag up play and stolen base in the inning.

 

[BamaFlum]

Braves pull it out. Impressive.

 

[CrimsonNagus]

I almost turned it off when the Giants scored in the top of the 9th. Glad I didn't, that was a fun finish!

The whole series with the Giants has been some fun baseball.

Michael Harris is pretty damn good. I don’t know why we thought Pache was the answer.
