Games 2 & 3 of the Giants/Mets Series

Two great games.

Star-divide

I also went to both of these games.  Yesterday's game was fantastic, three doubles in a row.  What a way to start off the game.  Not a lot of Mets fans in my section.  Giants fans hate Lo Duca and Green, mainly because they were "Dodger scum" (as they put it).

I wanted to point out to them that Bengie Molina was on the Angels when they beat the Giants in the 2002 World Series, but I guess that only applies to any team that aren't the Giants.

When Bonds hit the home run, everyone went ape shit.  Like they had just taken the lead, or won the 2007 World Series.  Then they announced that everyone gets a button because Barry Bonds hit a home run.  HOOR-who fucking cares.  That's all they care about.  He didn't tie the game or anything.

Today's game was great.  As soon as Armadno Bentiez got all pissed that Eliezer Alfonzo came to the mound to see what the hell was going on, I knew we would win the game.

The only thing that Giants fans seem to be able to say when they lose a game is, "BEAT LA!"

Because when you think about it, that's all they really have.

Yeah but I saw this one guy catch a foul ball
while wearing a Steal Your Giants shirt, which I thought was pretty cool.  Are they still selling the tie-died baseballs there?
Watch me paste this pathetic palooka with a powerful paralyzing perfect pachydermous percussion pitch.

I don't think so.
But at the first game I did see a guy wearing one of those old Greatful Dead/Giants shirts.  I did see a bunch of people wearing this insanely stupid hats.  They were reverse orange mohawks, and the middle was black and on the front they had the "SF".

Ugh.

EAMUS METROPOLI.

Well thanks for the diaries, pingel.
I for one always appreciate hearing about stadiums and environments around the league.  I'm sure I'll be posting something about Coors Field later in the summer.
