Two games in the books, two dominating wins for the Giants. So far the Giants hitters are teeing off on whoevers on the mound for Texas. The Giants defense is making all the plays. The Giants pitchers, mainly Matt Cain, are dominating the Texas hitter, especially Josh Hamilton. I really don't have much to add to that, just that a bunch of announcers are back tracking, but instead of giving the Giants credit their making excuses for Texas, or just saying San Fran is catching all the breaks, oh yeah pretty sure Renteria put a great swing on that high fastball from Wilson last night and he put that ball in the seats and that's all the runs we needed, the other 8 were for show. Now everyone is saying game 3 is must win for Texas, I agree, but what their not saying is game 3 is a must win for San Francisco as well. What was that? How is it must win for the Giants when it's 2-0. Here's why.
If the Rangers take game 3 against Sanchez, our game 4 guy is rookie Madison Baumgarder. Then they get Cliff Lee game 5, I know we rocked him once but I'll say that's an anomoly and won't happen again. Another reason, if the Giants can take game 3, then the Rangers panic and pitch Lee game 4, then we can try to beat him on short rest or we can put it away game 5 against a nobody with Timmy pitching. I know it doesn't make a lot of sense but this is what I'm thinking as a nervous fan. Let's keep this offense going and if it does it don't matter who's pitching for Texas. ORANGE OCTOBER continues, for a few days yet.
