Pros: Ummm... the fact that I predicted a shutout proves I'm psychic? That's about all I've got. Oh, and Matt Kemp made a great running catch at one point.
Cons: This offense is painful to watch. It's tough to win when you can't score even a single run. The only player with more than one hit? Juan Uribe, raising his BA to .210. Chad Billingsley pitched a little better than his line would have you believe, but the margin for error with this team is so small that Pablo Sandoval's solo home run was all the Giants really needed to win. At least we didn't let the pitcher get 3 RBIs today.
What we learned: That we should never make fun of Ryan Vogelsong. He hears everything. Honestly, the best thing to come out of this game *might* be how embarrassingly we lost- this three game series was touted as a "do or die" series for the Dodgers, a last chance to prove we could compete for the division. If the Giants manage to win today or tomorrow, you'd have to think that even the rosiest of rose colored glasses would concede that the season's over. If this loss helps the front office realize it's time to rebuild, then it was worth it.
