Speaker 1: All right, postgame rap time, Dave, I mean an assignment.
Speaker 1: I'm here with John and with Mike. You know, it's
Speaker 1: almost I mean, there's no such thing as a perfect win,
Speaker 1: but it is kind of an almost perfect win when
Speaker 1: you have a veteran guy that's out of the mountain.
Speaker 1: He does his job like Webb did. And then the
Speaker 1: people that scored the runs and really had everything to
Speaker 1: do with the runs were all the young guys, the
Speaker 1: guys that are playing because maybe other guys are dinged
Speaker 1: up or whatever. But that really kind of makes us
Speaker 1: win a little bit more special.
Speaker 2: Well, I love this game for a lot of reasons.
Speaker 2: And number one, you mentioned Logan Webb. You know he
Speaker 2: never panics. He doesn't, i mean winds up going to
Speaker 2: six innings and gives up one run. But let's go
Speaker 2: back to the one run that he gave up. The
Speaker 2: way that the Rockies were approaching him today. They were
Speaker 2: really aggressive early in the count. Three at bats in
Speaker 2: a row, first pitch swinging, two bloop singles, and a
Speaker 2: base hit knocks in a run. There's nobody out runs
Speaker 2: the first and second and you're thinking this could go weird,
Speaker 2: and that's it. That's all they get they get one run.
Speaker 2: Bottom half the inning, Drew Gilbert comes up, has a
Speaker 2: great bat, knocks it out, tight score, And I just
Speaker 2: think that that is such a great expression of what
Speaker 2: logan Web is all about, what an ace is all about.
Speaker 2: He never worries about how he gets into a mess.
Speaker 2: He just simply identifies the situation and pitches out of it.
Speaker 2: That is such a positive effect on a team, especially
Speaker 2: a team that's struggling to win ball games, especially a
Speaker 2: young team. I thought that had everything to do with them.
Speaker 2: They come back in the next inning and they score
Speaker 2: six and the big at bat of the game was
Speaker 2: a sackfly from Turner Hill and his first game is
Speaker 2: a big leaguer. He knocks in a run that puts
Speaker 2: the Giant's head and they never look back. This game
Speaker 2: was a good game for a lot of reasons, but
Speaker 2: it really showed well. They really rallied, and they really
Speaker 2: played well behind Loganweb. Their ace.
Speaker 3: Is the only time Hill batted with anybody on base.
Speaker 3: He's still looking for his first big league hit. But
Speaker 3: you think he's satisfied to have contributed with that, or
Speaker 3: does it bug him he didn't get a hit today.
Speaker 1: Look if he's in TRIPAA, he loses his hitting streak,
Speaker 1: so that probably would bug him. But look, given you're
Speaker 1: in the major leagues and you got to get that
Speaker 1: guy in from third, that's just as important as the
Speaker 1: base hit. And so yeah, he should be really proud
Speaker 1: of that because it's not automatic. We see it all
Speaker 1: the time. Guys can strand it at third. So that's
Speaker 1: good for him, huge.
Speaker 3: And the Giants have had hard time and the spots
Speaker 3: like that.
Speaker 1: And Gilbert also showed, you know, he's just showing signs
Speaker 1: that he made very well be a really nice big
Speaker 1: leaguer Today he wasn't wow, but you.
Speaker 2: Know you can feel it. I mean, when you're pitching
Speaker 2: a big leigue hitter gets in the box, you can
Speaker 2: feel I mean, they have to project. A hitter has
Speaker 2: to project confidence. A pitcher has to project confidence. And
Speaker 2: when you have a young hitter who starts to realize
Speaker 2: that and you can just see him get in the box.
Speaker 2: He's relaxed, he's got an idea, he has a plan.
Speaker 2: He's the way he receives pitches, takes pitches. How he's
Speaker 2: not impressed with being down on the count oh one
Speaker 2: or even oh two. Is that bat and his concentration
Speaker 2: never never changes. And the other thing, too, is his
Speaker 2: strike zone has really tightened up and he's become disciplined
Speaker 2: to it, and he's not a guy that really gets
Speaker 2: afraid of a two strike count. That is a confidence
Speaker 2: that you can feel pitching to him. I mean, he's
Speaker 2: projecting now, and I love what I'm seeing. Great at bats.
Speaker 2: He had an O two count. First two pitches of
Speaker 2: the game, bang bang too, gets a walk, and then
Speaker 2: his next to Patty comes up and he gets two
Speaker 2: oh and two close pitches works account in his favorite
Speaker 2: the guy made a mistake location wise, he knocks it
Speaker 2: out of the park. That's that's a guy who's getting together.
Speaker 2: Then he had too. Every bat that he had was
Speaker 2: a good at bat.
Speaker 1: Remember, he came into the league with a lot of nonsense.
Speaker 1: He looks now like a no nonsense player. And that's
Speaker 1: that's a great point.
Speaker 2: Yeah he does.
Speaker 1: All right, we'll pick our players when we come back.
Speaker 1: All right, back here at Oracle Park. Time to pick
Speaker 1: our players. John, I'm gonna go with.
Speaker 3: Buddy Kennedy because I'm just I was kind of feeling
Speaker 3: for him and he had no hits as a Giant,
Speaker 3: only one hit in twenty eight at batch in the
Speaker 3: big leagues this year, so he's been up and down.
Speaker 3: He played very sporadically, but I know that he needed
Speaker 3: a hit and he got a hit. He also he
Speaker 3: got hit by a pitch. Maybe it would have gotten
Speaker 3: it right there with runners all over the bases otherwise.
Speaker 3: But and then even then the Empire said it hit
Speaker 3: your bat and you're out.
Speaker 2: But we had the replay.
Speaker 3: Review now and they showed that no, no, no, it
Speaker 3: didn't hit the bat and hit hend. So then he
Speaker 3: got a line ride hit it, and he clabbered one
Speaker 3: hundred and six miles an hour single to center, and
Speaker 3: he had a perfect day at third base beside Biddy Kennedy.
Speaker 2: Good pick, good pick. Okay, well I'm going to take
Speaker 2: Jung Hu Lee. And Kay made a great point. You know,
Speaker 2: Jung Julee was hitting three hundred and he hit a
Speaker 2: home run and then he didn't get a hit for
Speaker 2: six days because he was still trying to pull the ball.
Speaker 2: When he hits for average, he uses the whole field.
Speaker 2: And I thought he had a really nice day with
Speaker 2: a walk and two hits to the opposite side of
Speaker 2: second base, and that's the Jung Hu Lee that's going
Speaker 2: to have a chance to really hit three hundred. I mean,
Speaker 2: he's up to two ninety four I think, or whatnot.
Speaker 2: I'm rooting for him to do that because that's histan
Speaker 2: credibility and that's something you put on your resume and
Speaker 2: you get referred to when you leave the game. And
Speaker 2: former three hundred hitter Jung Hulee and he's got a
Speaker 2: chance to do it. We're all rooting for him. But
Speaker 2: he had a great day. He's my guy.
Speaker 3: Good one. And DC gave me a note that said
Speaker 3: that you got the two hits in one inning, and
Speaker 3: that's the third time this year that he's had two
Speaker 3: hits in the same inning, and then there's been no
Speaker 3: giant who's done that in over fifty years. So wow,
Speaker 3: that's kind of cool weird.
Speaker 1: But it was very cool Jung.
Speaker 2: Who who'd have thought cool weirdness? Jung? Who's my guy?
Speaker 1: All right, Well, there's a bunch of obvious picks, so
Speaker 1: I'll take one of them, and I'll take Gilbert just
Speaker 1: because it was about a year ago where we saw
Speaker 1: him for the first time, and you know, he was
Speaker 1: that Frathause boy right where he did all the crazy
Speaker 1: things and cameras couldn't wait to take as of him
Speaker 1: in the dugout doing weird stuff that's not happening anymore.
Speaker 1: He is. He has turned into it, no nonsense big leaguer,
Speaker 1: and we're all happy to see that. Although it wasn't
Speaker 1: like we didn't have a lot of fun with it
Speaker 1: last year. But at some point you got to turn
Speaker 1: it on and be a big leaguer, and he definitely
Speaker 1: has done that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's a different cat man. Yeah, don't lose all
Speaker 2: the weirdness.
Speaker 1: No, I agree. Anyway, DC came up with this note
Speaker 1: from the clubhouse. Webs back tightened up from the comebacker.
Speaker 1: That would be that line drive. Right, there's line drive,
Speaker 1: and so that's why he came out maybe an inning earlier. Okay, anyway,
Speaker 1: all right, what do we got to left?
Speaker 4: What's on deck?
Speaker 1: Sponsored by your California Ford Dealers. Well, what's on deck
Speaker 1: is the kid that came over last year in a
Speaker 1: trade that seems to be throwing the ball very very well,
Speaker 1: and that's play did well.
Speaker 2: He's had two great starts. One was five innings and
Speaker 2: and one was into the sixth. And the thing that
Speaker 2: impressed me about both outings is he got danged early.
Speaker 2: He gave up two runs in the first inning of
Speaker 2: his first start. That was it. He made the adjustment.
Speaker 2: So he goes into his next start, gives up one
Speaker 2: run the first inning. That was it. So tomorrow I'm
Speaker 2: looking forward to Blade tidwells Us Marshall.
Speaker 1: Also, what's on deck is are you having a Cuco
Speaker 1: family dinner tonight?
Speaker 2: Yes we are.
Speaker 1: Who's paying?
Speaker 2: My son Bake and my daughter in law Selena.
Speaker 4: They said that you guys are paying. I haven't told
Speaker 4: them yet, but well they're not. They don't look happy
Speaker 4: right now. That's what's on decks.
