Madison Bumgarner just pitched his way into the MLB Hall of Fame

1. It helped his defense backed him up....

Finally!

[Auggie]

4. Yeah ... along with a little three-run late-inning blast

When was the last time the Giants had one of those?

[Brother Buzz]

5. Last Friday?

Specifically, six straight hits in the seven-run sixth inning: Giants 9, Dodgers 3. I believe Belt tagged a multi-run homer in that melee.

[Auggie]

6. You are so right

Thanks

[Brother Buzz]

7. Note: Bumgarner was pitching that night, too, and he was lucky to get the win...

because the Giants were trailing 3-2 going into that fateful inning; the Giants offense pulled his bacon out of the fire.

2. Meanwhile, the Mess lifted Thor, who had also been pitching shutout ball

for "Infamous Familia" (Famous Famiglia being a well-known NYC pizzeria chain ), the guy who got shelled every time he took the mound in last year's Series.

Be afraid, Cubs. Be very afraid.

3. You know what they say about the Giants in even numbered years

[El Supremo]

8. That their fans are as obnoxious as Red Sox fans every year?

9. Met fans were gloating about a World Series victory back in April.
