Where do you see that? List the close-out games. I just went to baseball reference. Did he have a managerial job before the Giants?

Not sure but have no desire to check it. Doesn't matter. Clearly the man has won a ton of games but never the big prize. That's the point. Along with the realistic view that we and thus he win tomorrow.

No matter what the actual record is in close out games, it ain't good.

Granted. But doesn't matter a whit tomorrow.

Give a hand here. What else belongs on this list off why we win tomorrow:

- We're at home
- Latos hates the Giants and tends to mow them down nicely
- Our BP, while maybe not as rested (debateable), is still the class of the NL with maybe just the exception of Dondedondo.
- We have the bats
- Cain has lost a bunch of times for reasons that haven't changed; doesn't matter that it'd be the 4th time.
- Dusty has the biggest motivation of all time to make the right calls to close out
- Can't have both my postseason predictions proved wrong on the same day; that'd be crazy talk

Latos is supposed to be sick or something....

Dallas said that's BS but I'm not going hunting for a link. Think it another irrelevant factor for tomorrrow. Latos is going to be an adrenaline-fueled monster tomorrow.

Dusty has won 3 series I know off the top of my head, two to go to the WS and then one to get to the Bartman series.

At least we shouldn't see Timmy tomorrow. That dude is on his A game right now.

We may win but none of what you typed means anything, its a one and done game and we are reeling and they have been in more high pressure games. Anything and everything can happen but the Giants are in the drives seat for sure.
