Another thing, I do not like Hennessey being the setup guy. He is not consistent or overpowering.

I had Hennessey on my fantasy team as a late pickup when he became the closer for a short stint for the Giants last season. he was brutal there and now he is not suited for setup either. I think maybe they should just consider using him as mop up of middle relief.
Durham and Roberts are sitting out tonight. Velez and Lewis are expected to take their places. Hopefully this can provide a spark and disrupt the sweep.
I don't know but this pisses me off. Not only did they not start, they pitched while conditions weren't perfect as a reliever?
Ladies and Gentlemen! It's official, the Giants have taken an extra base. Jose Castillo hit the first double of 2008. It only took three games Giants do lead 2-1 in the 7th. Valdez started and looked good in 2 IP. He had four strikeouts. Rowand got his first RBI as a Giant and Velez stole a base. Rowand is hitting fifth.
Lincecum got in and out of trouble going 4 IP, with 4 hits, 4 K's and 4 BB's. I hope all those fours are good luck! He did give up one run. Still 2-1 in the 8th.
Brian Wilson finally makes an appearance and jams Kemp like a mofo. He was bringing some heat too. He hit 96 mph three times. His slider was 86mph.
Giants win thanks to two sac flies and Molina gunning down Pierre to end the game. Wilson looked great and got the save. No sweep!! Chilling stat: 48 men left on base in a three game series, one extra base hit.
