...the '92 world series gem, that went on to becoming another example of criminally-stupid officiating.

and the entire team.

Some road trip, BTW. Nats are 3-1 against two division leaders (could easily be 4-0). You have a good shot at sweeping S.F.

This Giants fan is bummed, but happy for Dusty Baker and his sterling swan song season; we really enjoyed the years the Skipper spent with us.

Oops, I was running fuzzy math: The Nationals will leave SF at .596

plus, the Giants have been running the bases aggressively trying to break out of their slump. When you're desperate for runs you take chances. Back-fired on Span as it has on many players this week.
