Shark Week

Hey guys, Jax here, sweating in the garage.

We have a shop fan running in here and the side door open, so I just sit here and sleep and surf the Internet.

Anyway, we were watching Shark Week on the Discovery Channel the last few nights. Man, are those things fierce. Especially the Bull Sharks (Zambezis), once they touch something they are so agressive they will just gobble it up. Photo by underwatervideo.co.za.


Kind of like the opposite of the Giants' road offense, wouldn't you say?

I mean, in Monday night's game the bases were loaded in the 6th inning with one out. Two Giants came to the plate, including Eugenio Velez, and they just could not knock a run in. It basically cost them the game and they lost 4-3 to Houston. Last night's game was better, and the Giants hit a home run for the first time since June. No joke. Freddy Sanchez launched one and Pablo Sandoval hit another in the next at-bat. Pablo photo by sportsgrumblings.com.


If this road trip is an indication of the Giants' playoff chances, their hitting with runners in scoring position has got to get better. Especially on the road.

Right now their team RISP is not shark like. It's more like bait.
