Win streaks

The Giants have won four in a row, matching their longest win streak of the season.

OK, that says something right there.

I've been told I need to get more angry in my blog posts, have more of a "take" in sports talk radio parlance. What they hey!

I don't have a lot to be angry about with the Giants. They're playing the rookies, the rookies are winning. I guess Eugenio Velez and Fred Lewis could get bunts down better. Ochoa continues to deliver some clutch hits.

I like (ex-Padre) Giants basecoach Tim Flannery's view on how to bunt a 98 mph fastball.

"These guys know the mechanics, so it becomes a matter of will,'' Flannery said. "You say, 'No matter what, I'm going to get this down.' You either turn the adrenaline and pressure into fear or you turn it into focus.''

Nice. That reminds me of when I'm chasing rabbits on the fire trail on walks. I'm going to get that bugger, it just takes some determination.

I missed Zito's start yesterday because I was moving. That was nuts! I found some peanuts and butter in the trash, ate them, felt weird, then I cut my paw on something on the ground. Our new house is awesome.

I can't wait until the TV is plugged in and we can watch Giants. I'm going to go wag my tail in front of Stephen now and nod over the TV so he can get the picture.

What the hey!
