Upton, where are you to comment?

1. Is there anything more frustrating than the Giants offense?

Tonight Lincecum in 7 IP gives up 2 ER on 4 hits while SO 11..and still loses 2-1.

Their great pitching allowed only 3 runs in 3 games in Philadelphia, but thanks to their inept offense they lost 2 of them.

Strangely enough, thanks to the Mets they're still only 1 back.

:crazy:

2. Funny, how the AAA Mets come to your rescue. Next thing you know the

Single-A Pirates will be coming to the small-mens' rescue!

:D

3. Me thinks that the Gigantes should have taken Giambi,,,

and the Rox Penny.

4. And the Smallmen's former embarrassment, Pat Misch,

pitched a great game for the Mets against the Rockies.

5. Carney Lansford, hitting coach, would agree

He's been trying to make batters more selective and work the pitch count, but some of these guys just don't get it. I would think it's easy for opposing pitchers to shut them down knowing that.
