A Few Observations

The Giants blew a big opportunity in the ninth inning that would have won last night's game against the Orioles.  Brandon Belt looks like a great hitter.  Is he fooling us again?  He has hit well at times in the past then quickly slips into a tantrum at the plate that lasts for weeks. . . I thought Vogelsong looked confident and relaxed on the mound which is good sign for the future. . . Rookie Roger Kieschnick was up with a chance to win it in the ninth.  Watching on Baltimore TV he was thrown the same pitch six times all way below the strike zone and he swung and missed at three of them. He is not the answer because he does hit the ball with authority. . . I wrote recently that I thought Chris Davis of the Orioles was the most impressive player at the All Star game. I guess Bochy did not see what I saw since he intentionally walked a batter last night to get to Davis in the 10th inning who promptly hit the ball 400 feet for a game winning double.  It was more lefty righty BS.
