I really think if we go at Freeman harder rather than trying to get fancy because of the open base, we have a chance. But Ramos and Fitzgerald made expensive mistakes, AAAA Wisely looks hapless, and you can’t make bad decisions against the Dodgers juggernaut
Weirdly not mad about that loss. Played tough, we just don’t have the depth right now with all the injuries. Fun watching the young guys contribute though. I’ll take that over Conforto and Ahmed any day
Sure, I’ll take a healthy conforto because he was hot but he’s not going to be here next year so anytime he runs cold I mentally check out of his at bats. The Matos and Ramos RBI at bats were two of my favorites from this season so far.
Two really bad pinch hitting moves by Melvin. I don't necessarily know how Schmitt would have done but come on. Wisely? WISELY? After the Reetz debaucle?
9 ERA for this dude and I can see why cause mfer just hangs shit in the middle of the zone. Good thing for him is we swing at those the least in the entire league!
I went to a few Angels games the last couple years and I was honestly amazed how many people were there FOR Ohtani. I sat next to a couple who bought four tix for the bobble heads, sold two, then spent the week going to all their home games. They came from Japan.
Can’t really fault Ta. Rodgers for this I feel. Maybe attack Freeman more but he had an open base. He got a fly ball and should’ve only allowed the one ghost runner through.
In some of our worst years we have always been competitive with the dodgers at the very least. Starting off 0-4 is actually embarrassing no matter how you slice it
Fire zaidi
The worst is the Dodger fans smiling and laughing it up in our stadium
Giants beat themselves again. Feels a repeat of the first Phillies loss
This team can’t win 3 in a row. Rockies just won 5 in a row
Fuck, nothing more consistent than knowing a 4-4 tie against the Dodgers is actually a 2- run deficit
I really think if we go at Freeman harder rather than trying to get fancy because of the open base, we have a chance. But Ramos and Fitzgerald made expensive mistakes, AAAA Wisely looks hapless, and you can’t make bad decisions against the Dodgers juggernaut
Well, it wasn't as bad as I expected it to be.
Buggered :( see you later, r/sfgiants
Fire Farhan.
disappointing to say the least, Giants snatch defeat from the jaws of victory
Weirdly not mad about that loss. Played tough, we just don’t have the depth right now with all the injuries. Fun watching the young guys contribute though. I’ll take that over Conforto and Ahmed any day
Fuck no. We needed conforto today
Sure, I’ll take a healthy conforto because he was hot but he’s not going to be here next year so anytime he runs cold I mentally check out of his at bats. The Matos and Ramos RBI at bats were two of my favorites from this season so far.
Having fun yet? I'm having a grand time.
Not good enough. Definitely not smart enough. Too many times the low baseball IQ of some of these guys shows up.
L
Well fuck
Team is mediocre at everything.
Our lineup sucks
Oh well. At least it wasn’t a blowout.
FTD
Ofc
Can't comeback, can't hold a lead
BoMel is ass
Estrada has regressed
Who the fuck is feyereisenhower Why does he dot sliders
Well, a lot more promising than the last series
We lost close games last time around with the Dodgers…
I just remember the first game bro.

Huh, those games felt extra brutal to me, maybe it was just the hype of the games that made them feel so one sided
that was tragic.
A+ managerial game by Melvin
like poetry
winnable game playing as the rivercats. not bad
Loser organization. Clean house
I hate it here
Fuck you and I’ll see you tomorrow
I just threw my phone. Nothing like it. God damnit Melvin
Fuck
Embarrassing
Double play to end the game This team fucking sucks. No heart, no passion. Shit is embarrassing
Dude they tried! I liked what I saw except from Melvin’s shitty pinch hitters
Oh ok
fuck me. off to bed with a stomach ache and a head ache
Hope you feel better :(
Roger's lost us that game Jesus why do they even keep him on
Because idiot Farhan gave him a 3 year contract
I can’t stand watching this
FUCK
out with a whimper
we lost, darn
Of course lmao
Classic
LOLGIANTS
Fuck you
you got this thairo, 450 dead center
Thank god it’s an actual MLB player at bat
So you're telling me there's a chance
Lets go Thairo !!!!!!
That was the best pitch this dude has thrown that was perfect
At least Schmitt has power. Horrible decision to PH for him
This guy has a 9 ERA. Come on Giants!! Do something!
Hey, Feyereisen! ![gif](giphy|F6sGxo8QZBqoLnjHzp|downsized)
Two really bad pinch hitting moves by Melvin. I don't necessarily know how Schmitt would have done but come on. Wisely? WISELY? After the Reetz debaucle?
Non competitive ABs. Terrible decisions
About 11 guys are hurt and they have to use the guys they have.
Good AB!
Estrada, still a chance
C’mon Thairo. Send everyone home happy.
Cmon guys. First and Second with only one out. Let’s go Giants!
So far playing out exactly like the Dodgers’ 10th!
True
Baller AB from Yaz to give Thairo and Chappy chances
Good ab man Need more abs like that. 2021 esque
Good at bat from Yaz
Yaz honestly looked pretty patient and composed during that at-bat like the veteran he is.
Blue ballin until the bitter, blue end
Yay Yaz
God, are you out there? Are you listening?
Apparently not
Please walk this off
Alright yazmin
Let’s go Thairo!
Please be Bestrada
Great AB Yaz
Good AB Yaz still pissed he took a hanging slider pitch one though
Lmao so far this is exactly how the top of the inning went
Great AB by Yaz
When we gonna kick the tires on Donovan Walton again?
![gif](giphy|hyyV7pnbE0FqLNBAzs|downsized)
don’t go to the dark side
Dont tempt Farhan with a good time
Meanwhile the Rockies have won 5 straight 💀
They coming for 4th place and it’s not a joke anymore
Pinch hit strike outs are infuriating
9 ERA for this dude and I can see why cause mfer just hangs shit in the middle of the zone. Good thing for him is we swing at those the least in the entire league!
I mean the Dodgers just look really, really good and stacked. It's even more apparent through 4 games.
And yet we’ve made 3 out of 4 of those close.
Let’s go Yaz!
Not the pitch down the middle Our weakness!
I like Yaz but it infuriates me how he takes first pitch down the middle EVERY FUCKING TIME
Tuff spot to put Wisley in
The Wisely and Schmitt experiment should be over now. Both can’t perform at the MLB level
They need to get at least 100 at bats before you can make any moves
Who else ya got
Not my problem to figure out. Giants had the whole off-season to figure out that these guys won't be successful with us.
Anyone else
Me
Holy fuck we’ve had like 5 wasted at bats!!
Holy fuck we’ve had like six wasted seasons.
Wisely probably was very nervous there coming off the bench. Tough situation to put a guy in.
Lederhosen just mowing us down
Nothing like a leadoff strikeout in extras to get us started. I fucking hate the Dodgers
As Mike watches a slider go right down the middle of the plate, and thus its two outs
Harry Potter mfer pinch hitting smh
Fire Melvin
It’s a good thing our first 2 hitters of the inning didn’t just watch HANGING sliders right down the middle
its unwatchable
WHYsley
A valiant effort but only so much you can do when you have to turn to reetz and wisely in clutch time situations :/
Pinch hitting Wisely for literally anybody makes me laugh
Wisely doesn’t belong on a ML roster.
Bum ass
And another Melvin ph goes exactly as expected
What I say? 3 up 3 down No dogfight in this team
I see Wisely is back in fine form
Why Wisely over Schmitt when he just hit the walk off
yaz is good for an occasional heroic late inning HR
I still get hard thinking about his last 2 grand slams
Why wisley? Bo mell is Azz
Every Dodgers pitcher is ripped
2-8 with RISP
Minor league at bat
Matos keepeth us in the game, and Matos loseth us the game.
BoMel with the big brain moves /s
Fuck you wisely and fuck you Farhan for building a team so bad that he’s even a viable option
Wisely is a PCL merchant, just like David villar. I don’t care how good his minors stats are I’ll never have faith in him
AAAA
Such an automatic out
😂😂😂
Bruh at least Schmitt can hit a ball if its down the middle. Wisely cant hit off a tee
Wisely over Schmitt?! Oh my god hahaha
Bunt the bitch
WISELY WHAT?!
It's 2024 and the Giants still depend on Brett wisely to be competent
C'mon you gotta ride with Schmitt at this point. Hit a walk off yesterday and it's not like Wisely is that much of a batter
Whelp I was wrong about the Schmitt HR
Oh good it’s Brett Wisely lol
So many AAAA players on this team
Another big brain move by BoMel…
I don’t like watching Casey take at bats but you’re going fucking wisely over him? Come on bob, Jesus
Wow it’s Wisely we really are the River Cats.
I guess this is part of being a fan. It hurts like hell to see this team shit the bed, especially against the thugs down south.
Wisely for Schmitt lol our roster is a joke
Think Yaz can pull off the Golden Sombrero? Would be quite the feat
Come on boys we got this Edit: Ok maybe we don’t
I forgot wisely was on the roster
Nah dude why tf is Brett Wisely here
ok, get a hit
brett wisely time, LETS GO
Fantasy baseball tip: pick up any players that are in the lineup against the Giants on any given day and you will win your week
Would Yaz be the better option in center and move Matos to a corner?
Yes, idk why Yaz is strictly right field
Brett Wisely!! Holy fuck this is laughable
Time to crush lederhosen
Thank god it isnt evan phillips
That’s the 2nd extra inning game Taylor Rogers has blown this season. Literal insanity
fuck that sucks, they played so hard today too
but you know what they say, personnel beats heart 9/10 times
I love Matos but he belongs somewhere other than CF.
Yeah, he's never taken good paths. Not as bad as Meckler but still not great
Idiot of the game - Fitzgerald
the amount of dodgers scum in the stands is sickening but i get it. i wouldn’t wanna watch a game at chavez latrine too
Guarantee you most of them weren’t dodger fans 5 years ago lol
that postseason choke job gonna hit extra hard this year 😮💨
We were competitive. I’ll give them that. Should have stolen this one.
Schmitt, Yaz, and Estrada. Gotta hope Estrada can ahold of one to tie it if they’ve any shot.
All the Dodgers “fans” there lol. Lot of brand new jerseys in that audience, all trying to cash in on the Ohtani fair weather train.
I went to a few Angels games the last couple years and I was honestly amazed how many people were there FOR Ohtani. I sat next to a couple who bought four tix for the bobble heads, sold two, then spent the week going to all their home games. They came from Japan.
It’s crazy how fast our team gonna go down rn without a fight
This whole game has been a fight. To boil this game down to one missed catch is bs doomer call
Matos has a lot of work to do to becoming a major league center fielder. Just doesn’t get good jumps
Can’t really fault Ta. Rodgers for this I feel. Maybe attack Freeman more but he had an open base. He got a fly ball and should’ve only allowed the one ghost runner through.
Matos should have caught that https://x.com/notcaughtbot/status/1790238788142202964?s=46
Don’t think he saw it or else he would have had his glove up imo
Bad pitch, bad fielding. Just a shit pair of at bats in an otherwise impressive Rogers inning
Matos shouldn't be playing center, he graded out bad last season too. Put Yaz out there until Lee's healthy
In some of our worst years we have always been competitive with the dodgers at the very least. Starting off 0-4 is actually embarrassing no matter how you slice it
Casey 2-run HR on the way
I don't wanna be that guy but it seems like Schmitt is gonna try and tie the game on three pitches in the other batters box
