We have a Buster Posey done on the field and the -- this is a really -- within a tough place for the Giants over recent years and and I'm wondering yet change years. They -- maybe this is the first time he had to go in the Millwood game from first of behind the -- did this. You know unfortunately Hector. I guess tweaked his knee a little bit and you know that to see that happen tomorrow night I mean what you're. You can see this kinda come and if you start to limp around a little bit you've got to be thinking you know what I mean you have to get in there right right yeah I -- barn -- Runup to the clubhouse -- on this to that figured he was the fastest when we had on the bench. To get down your article it. Well two things to talk about too much of -- either the first is talk about your at bats tonight at five RBIs your first three at bats all three of those at that's covered. And follow through this is coming with two strike counts you get to be pretty happy with your approach with -- hitting this way. Yeah you know what. Surgeons. It's -- tough early in the baton house fortune off that first at bat. Fight off a pretty good bitten. Went 322 at bat and then. The third at bat. We've got a changeup out over point. Talk about Barry Zito. Well he did a great job I mean he really threw his fastball through the zone today I feel like him. Obviously it was my first time that's -- -- -- -- and I was impressed you know I think he did a great job of command both sides of play was able to keep guys honest with throwing the ball inside. The lefties and right reasons you know the results speak for themselves. Left here last road trip with the East Coast swing which builds it in the Washington and Pittsburgh as a group under intense heat and you commit to the he'd gift was a dead bats and that was it. No I went to bed I mean -- -- but you know you're gonna expect this but. No I was it was very pleasant compared to DC and Pittsburgh. You know I thought I heard a little bit -- a roar from the Posey section how big was that section of will begin around in my -- but maybe maybe some other folks from Leesburg it was if we had a pretty good crowd what did Phil roar.
