 Living on the Razor's Edge
You have to say this about the San Francisco Giants. When they decide to lose a playoff game, they find the most dramatic, heart-wrenching, stomach-rending, primal-scream-inducing ways in which to do it.
They even have them categorized. This one is from the same chapter as 2000 NLDS, Game 3--"Giants Raise Hopes In Extra Innings, Only To Collapse and Lose."
Their backs are to the wall now. Somehow, they have to rally and play a solid game tomorrow. Alou has to decide whether to start Schmidt on short rest, or to start Jerome Williams as scheduled. Problem is, even if Schmidt can shut down the Fish tomorrow, the Giants still need Jerome Williams to pitch and win one game in this series. But I'd rather have Jerome pitching at home, with a bit of momentum on his side, than not have a Game 5 at all.
More later, after I have a drink or two.
