The amount of force necessary to throw a ball 2 feet would not be enough to roll a ball another 50 feet. Just sayin'....

Im surprised the ump didn't call it a strike with how the umps have been this year!

Romo also had his basketball moment in the game, albeit at higher velocity. But I thought the game last night was really interesting and wish you would have picked up on what I think is the post-Melky Giants strategy for winning: Zito is his typically so-so effective, then gets blasted with a Headlley 3-run jack, Giants down 4-1. A mistake pitch, maybe, usually Zito goes another two innings to save the bullpen, etc. But NO!!!  Bochy pinch-hits for Zito as the lead-off in the next inning (5th) and Giants go on to rally for 4 runs and take the lead. That was the move that saved the game. I've been critical of Bochy leaving in his starters too long, (did Cain have to pitch 8 innings in the 10-1 rout the day before?) but yesterday they used 7 pitchers. Seven. Too bad Affeldt wasn't instructed to HOLD RUNNERS ON, like any normal closer would do, but his head wasn't into it apparently. Hensley gets the strikeout save. A cliffhanger which didn't have to be. And who is this guy Hacker? Looks terrible at 88 fastball. There's got to be somebody better than Brad Penny out there... But I like the new strategy: Don't wait. Every game is a must win and every pitcher better be ready.

I didn't know Kareem Abdul-Jabbar played baseball.

Hahaha, I love the reactions of all 4 main people.  Just amazing.
