Abysmal Giants’ Road Trip Ends with 5-0 Loss to the Rockies
Posted on 20 May 2013 by Daniel Trucios.
This six game road trip could not have ended sooner for the Giants. The Colorado Rockies (24-20) managed to win their first series over the San Francisco Giants (24-20) in two years with a 5-0 win yesterday. The Rockies take the series 3-1 as the Giants wrap up a six game road trip with only one win to show for it. Rockies starter Juan Nicasio, who had given up 4 runs in his last start vs. the ...

Phight for Right to Party
Posted on 11 Aug 2011 by Christopher Rowe.
In case anyone’s last name is “Van Winkle” or they have been residing in a town called “Bedrock” it has now become common knowledge that the 2011 Philadelphia Phillies (77-40, 37 games over .500 for the first time since finishing 101-61 in 1977) are officially the best team in baseball. Mind you, these numbers reflect regular season opponents in August rather than postseason opponents...

Only One
Posted on 25 Jun 2011 by Chris Tolbert.
The Giants just need to be up by one run and instantly they win. No its not that simple but it seems to be that simple. The Giants have won one run games quite unusual in most cases but today's case may just be the one that takes the cake. Tony Sipp, the Indians reliever balked in the winning run with the bases loaded in the seventh inning of today's heated struggle with the Cleveland Ind...

All-Star in Lincecum?
Posted on 23 Jun 2011 by Chris Tolbert.
Alright, the first game of the series was just flat out horrible for Madison Bumgarner who did give up 9 hits before two outs which was a modern Major League Baseball record. However, the Giants, like only the Giants can do, get back up, dust off their shoulders, and just play ball. Last night, Eli Whiteside had one of his better games with a two-run triple and an RBI single for the Giant...

Still Torture
Posted on 16 Jun 2011 by Chris Tolbert.
Although the Giants did win by three runs yesterday, which for the Giants constitutes a blowout, it wasn't torture after they scored two runs in the 9th inning. However, the game before where Wilson put two on after two outs and throwing a wild pitch to put both in scoring position, then striking out the last batter looking is torture. Duane Kuiper coined the phrase, “Giants baseball,...

Turn Off the Lights Nate
Posted on 2 Jun 2011 by Chris Tolbert.
Nate Schierholtz tied the game in the ninth inning with two outs and hits the go-ahead single in the top of the 11th with two outs. Although Lincecum did have a poor outing, the Giants were actually able to score runs against the Cardinals. One of the things the Giants gained with this victory was Bruce Bochy's confidence in Nate Schierholtz, “His playing time has increased and it wil...

The Battle For Roster Spots Is ON
Posted on 27 Feb 2011 by Joseph Davis.
Most of the names responsible for securing the 2010 Giants championship are stitched on the back of Giants uniforms this spring. That’s good. But as hard as it may be to grasp, a couple of those names could well be removed come late March. You see, Brandon Belt is on the horizon. He’s a 2009 5th-round pick, and he skyrocketed through all 3 levels of the minors in 2010—an impressive fe...

Giants BATSMEN, 12/3/10
Posted on 3 Dec 2010 by Joseph Davis.
At first I was going to refrain from explanation and let you the readers figure out what BATSMEN meant. Then I had the wise realization you do not come to PSB for riddles; you come to satiate your baseball cravings. BATSMEN is an acronym for the subject matter to be found in BATSMEN columns: (Giants) Birthdays (pretty obvious) Appearances (where our Giant personnel will be visiting) Tune In (w...

How Misfits And Castoffs Became Champions, Part 1 of 3
Posted on 4 Nov 2010 by Joseph Davis.
We all know Edgar Renteria cracked the decisive bomb in Game 5 of the World Series against Texas. We know Brian Wilson wrapped up the 9th as he has countless times since the season opened. We know Tim Lincecum brought his A game and brilliantly controlled a high-power offense with his assortment of fastballs and changeups. We know Bruce Bochy stood at the wheel, navigating his roster masterfull...

Uhh…Did Bud Selig Post My Last Column?
Posted on 30 Oct 2010 by Joseph Davis.
…because for some reason, it got 1994′d—as in the final 3rd of it was mysteriously ABSENT. Never mind; I'll simply pull a Bowie Kuhn and re-start from the point of incident. I was going to ask you to chime in as to who your Series MVP is so far, until I reminded myself this series is NOT over. We Giants have won NOTHING yet. The Rangers can go off at any time; th...

Phillies – Giants: Clash of Titans in NLCS
Posted on 14 Oct 2010 by Christopher Rowe.
Philadelphia Phillies vs. San Francisco Giants. NL East Champs vs. NL West Champs. Quite honestly, the two best overall teams in the National League this season. Their records say so (97 & 92 wins respectively). Their pitching staffs say so (ranked 1&2 in NL). Their NLDS opponents would tell us so (Braves and Reds were each defeated fairly soundly). Phillies have been NL East Champs 2...
