Giant test passed in Atlanta

The Giants had a solid April, but how would they fare heading to Atlanta?

Well Morse homered, Lincecum wiggled out of jams to give the Giants 6 innings and 1 run and Romo got a called third to end it.

With the Dodgers losing, it was a good first test.

The A’s and Red Sox played each other and the Sox took control so no bullets or teeth were a factor.

Time to update the Dodged Bullet – Teeth Grinder Tally.

An explanation of what this is all about can be found HERE.

Sully Baseball Daily Podcast – May 2, 2013

After a rough Red Sox night, I turned to my dear friend Kenny Mack to talk me off of the ledge.

He did so on today’s episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

Yunel Escobar, Juan Uribe, Roenis Elias Juan Nicasio, Omar Infante and Gaby Sanchez all added to their totals for Who Owns Baseball.

Upon further review, our teeth are grinding

Are you happy Tampa Bay Rays?

You guys didn’t want to play the games yesterday. Rays fans dug up the smoking gun of the collective bargaining agreement that favors the Cubs and Red Sox.

And what happened? The Rays win a pair of one run games, including one with a strange replay controversy and another that had Koji Uehara let up a rare game winning homer.

ARE YOU HAPPY YOU PLAYED THE GAMES NOW?!!!
