Moms Dig the Giants

Lincecum is the man again and stops the slide.

Dirty looks to rebound from a poor effort last time out and start a new kind of streak this afternoon against former Padre (and the infamous loser of a fight with a DVD) Adam Eaton.

A Happy Mother's Day to all the Moms out there from OBnB. For your reading pleasure, we offer this heartwarming tale submitted by a reader in the Vail (CO) Daily:

“Mom and I would listen to baseball games all the time when I was a kid. The baseball announcer would say, ‘And now the other team is going to intentionally walk so-and-so.’ Mom would stop what she was doing and say, ‘And no you’re going to split your infinitive.’ And thus, a future sports writer was born. Never split your infinitive.

Pitching and defense makes a baseball team a winner. Unfortunately, the San Francisco Giants have never had enough of both to do so. My mom and I and other Giants fans are still waiting for our first championship since 1954.

Sit down, shut up and watch the baseball game. Don’t ask me to buy you assorted food and souvenirs. Watch the game.

If the San Francisco Giants were playing on the East Coast, dinner wasn’t coming until after the game. My father, who never liked baseball, never understood that.”

Awesome.

Now let's deliver for all the Giants moms, boys.
