Very exited for the "Lopez Was Better" thread if he blows this.

This would be quite a feat to lose this game, please don't.

Does Bautista just not throw a slider anymore?

Adley has to call it right?

McDonald "That's what he was in 6th grade" 

[Spakman]

Bautista just needs to get use to this pressure

[dtk9119]

Great pitch

I really don't think Bautista is a closer. 

I think Bautista can be the closer because he certainly has the arm for it. I don't care what anyone thinks, but there's an adjustment going from a setup pitcher to a closer. 

Some pitchers like Tommy Hunter couldn't handle the change and he had to go back to being a setup pitcher. Bautista needs to get a few saves under his belt and he'll be good.

McDonald is just fantastic

What a block by Adley.  Wow.

[MDK02]

One more!

This is pure magical thinking, but as soon as the camera zoomed in on Adley giving Bautista a little nod, I knew a K was coming.

Very true! I actually agree

I don't think we fully appreciate what Adley will become for this team. My Brother lives in SF, and he said Posey was the reason SF had success for so many years.
