Anyone catch the Dodgers/Giants game last night?

9. Looks like they kicked the Tauchman question down the road

Tauchman entered the game in the top of the ninth as a pinch-runner, then played left field; he didn't bat.

I just learned the Giants have a batting cage under the stands, right behind their dugout in Oracle Park, and the pitching machine is a state of the art device that can throw everything (this is fantastic for 'cold' pinch-hitters who have been sitting on the bench for 6, 7, 8 innings). The Giants returned to SF today, and I suspect Tauchman has been instructed to park his butt in the cage until he rediscovers his groove.

Designated for Assignment is a Hell of a way to end your Giants career, and may be a huge incentive for him to find his groove
