Mike Krukow on Tony Vitello bringing in Matt Gage to face Ketel Marte with 2 outs in the 9th inning:
“Marte is a great hitter, no doubt. However, if you look at his statistics this year, he’s hitting 60 points lower than what he’s hitting left handed. This was something at the start of the series, where if they had a situation where he could beat you late in the game, they were gonna turn him around and bat him right handed. Vitello didn’t make a mistake on that. He took the heat (by blaming himself on the pitching change) and took it off his player, that’s all he did and I commend him for that. His decision to put in Gage, who has been throwing well, to face a guy who has been struggling from the right side as a switch hitter, that was the right decision.”

The Giants are 13-15. They have played a gauntlet of a schedule, and had some growing pains with a new manager.
Rafael Devers has been bad
Willy Adames has been bad
Logan Webb has been bad (for his standards)
Water will find its level. Super encouraging stuff. Philly looms.
From 2014-19, the Houston Rockets built a team that was ready to contend for a championship in the West -- only to be stopped in their tracks by Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors. The final nail in the coffin: LeBron James and the Lakers in the bubble, forcing the Rockets to go into rebuild mode.
In 2025, the Houston Rockets built a team that was ready to contend for a championship in the West -- only to be stopped in their tracks by Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors. Probably the final nail in the coffin: LeBron James and the Lakers in 2026, which may force the Rockets to go into rebuild mode again.
Time is a flat circle.
Two amazing things:
1. The noise. MY LORD the noise at Oracle. All these years later, I think my ears are still ringing.
2. Biedrins closing a huge game. Andris Biedrins.
