For more things Giants let's get the inside pitch from CSN Bay Area dot com senior insider ray Rondo and ray when the Giants and Phillies were playing in the city of brotherly love the Giants to two out of three and oh yeah by the way they got a rubber in the Phillies faced little bit. They got Carlos Beltran well now the Giants are feeling the opposite effect of that because they've lost three in a row and held. And the Phillies are doing it with Hunter -- they're acquisition really -- the way seven of thirteen with two home runs and four birdies in this series. Well I mean if if you could exchange Carlos Beltran for underpants. And get a different result great but I don't think He can because the Giants. Problems are top to bottom. They're awful mean they're hitting. Brutally. And it's not just these three games the other -- for seventeen with -- runners in scoring position. Three runs in three games but if you take out the 80 win over Arizona this is -- two weeks out the Giants have literally done nothing offensively. So if -- Peppers play for the Giants right now he'd be doing nothing because he'd be part of a greater and far more unsightly hole. Now and it's a shame because the -- and some brilliant pitcher performances like the one. Matt Cain gave them today -- picture this is kind of become a rivalry now the Phillies and the Giants in the Phillies are gonna leave town regardless of what happened on Sunday. Feeling pretty good about the fact that if they see this Giants -- of the post season it's a team that they can handle aren't thank. Well not only that I wouldn't be surprised. If you get a little more. Issues tomorrow because this will be the last time they see each other before the LCS. And so there might be a little bit of you know little message on the way out of town from both sides I would be surprised. If tomorrow was much uglier than today because today was pretty much people hold hands and singing. There were no issues at all but tomorrow. I think I think they'll be a few more messages sent on both sides because it's the only way the Jets to get any respect out of this series. And Philly doesn't back down to anybody so it might be able crank here. Well I wanna go so far that's the you think Tim -- come with drug somebody or they don't have to be a bullpen thing. -- -- You know whenever it turns up it turns up I don't think it's gonna be pre planned somebody he'll do something that torque soft somebody else you won't know when it's coming but I. Tomorrow is a great day to settle some scores euphoric before October and baseball players are never averse to taking a free one if you offered to.
