Re: NLDS Game 1 - Reds at Giants 10/6/12

Oh, something that was not heroic:

The Giants fans cheering when it was clear that Cueto had to leave the game. No, they were not chreering politely "I'm glad he's ok." They were cheering that our game 1 starter had to leave the game with an injury. Keep it classy, San Fran.

I didn't see it like that, SF fans these days are pretty mild mannered.

I will never forget this. It was as if they thought the Giants had KO'd Cueto.

Stat on MLB Network. Cueto leaving after 1 batter was the fewest batters a starter has ever faced in the history of postseason baseball.

The more I think about it, the more huge this win is.

Yea, I think they were, even up in the upper deck. It was atrocious.

You are right.

Going down 0-2 pretty much means you will lose the series.

Which makes game 2 a must win for the loser of game 1.

And if you win that must win game 2, you must then take 2 of the next 3.

I agree, that was disgusting. It gave me flashbacks to when I was at PBS when Carson Palmer was hit by Kemo Von "Sleeps with the fishes" and 40% of the crowd that day stood around with Steeler jerseys and creepy, sadistic smirks on their faces while Palmer and the Bengals' postseason hopes swirled down the drain. I love West Coast baseball. I think it is different, and I like the Giants broadcasting team. But, I don't think this was the finest moment for a celebrated fanbase.

Cueto just said he feels better but will have to see how he feels tomorrow.

The long plane ride home is probably not going to be great either with back issues.

Hopefully send him home tomorrow, sleep in his own bed and get some good treatment.

Thankfully Marge Schott is no longer running the organization....or he'd have to take Amtrak and Greyhound.

Re: NLDS Game 1 - Reds at Giants 10/6/12

It sounds like this may be a minor issue with Cueto. I wonder if it didn't freak him out since he said it hadn't happened before and maybe he overreacted, but then I'm glad he gave up the ball before giving up a big inning. I guess that was heroic also

Well, it not a tragedy if he is not available until game 4 or 5, or even the first game of the NLCS.

She'd make him rent a car out of his own pocket, drive himself home, and insist that she is only reimbursing for a compact car.

But where does that leave Latos? That worries me. I feel like he's the key.
