Todd Helton vs. Jeremy Affeldt

Published by on April 12, 2012 | 3 Responses

So, this game is truly awful. (At the time of posting, Giants are down 16-8. Also, Ryan Theriot is now playing left field.)

However, embedded in the chaos of Coors Field is this gem — Todd Helton hitting against a Jeremy Affeldt curveball.

Todd was obviously quite embarrassed.

Affeldt’s final line: 2.0 IP, 6 H, 5 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 1 SO, and one awesome curveball.

So Boch is more concerned with Big Time Timmy Jim letting the 2 strike opportunities get away from him, but when was the last time Lincecum couldn't break past the glass ceiling of 91 mph with any of his 76 pitches? (And how many times did he go "up the ladder" with an 89 "heater"?

Those innings were more explosive than a Michael Bay movie.

Yeah, can Barry Zito pitch on two days rest? Please?
