…. Nate the great

The Giants won tonight behind what was perhaps Nate Schierholtz’s best game as a a pro:

…. Nate Schierholtz did have a great night with three big hits.

He singled against Jake Westbrook to start the three-run tying rally in the sixth, a mere trifle compared with what he did later.

Cardinals closer Fernando Salas, who had been 10-for-10 in saves, retired the first two Giants in the ninth on three pitches before he walked Huff on four. With Schierholtz batting, Burriss, a pinch-runner, stole second. With his team down to its last strike, Schierholtz shot a single through the middle to get Burriss home for a 5-5 tie.

…. In the 11th, also with two outs, Schierholtz broke the tie with a single against Ryan Franklin after Freddy Sanchez hit his second double. Schierholtz scored an insurance run on a Brandon Crawford single.

    hey john

    post season or not….2011 is filled with wonderful stories

    nate, song, crawford, manny, ford…freddie putting up as numbers, madbum

    for the past month, the giants 4-5 rotation guys have been better than the 1-3, and 1-3 have been solid

    i havent enjoyed watching the big club so much since the hmmm baby days

      I couldn’t agree more. This has been the funnest season in many years, despite the injuries and the atrocity of Cousins take-out of Buster Posey. Vogelsong is an awesome story that comes by rarely in a baseball generation. Its stories like his that make mlb the best game on the planet I think

    • me too. i figure this is part of the payoff of winning it all last year. less torture, more confidence as i watch that they will find a way to score the late run, or hold a tie/lead. games like saturday’s instead of disappointed, i am surprised by the one-run loss.

      it has been just so much fun this spring.

      • uncle joe mccarthy says:

        im not upset at all by losses this season

        they arent coming as a result of bochy and sabean’s pig headedness

        giants are without their two big bats…

        they will be without their heart and soul for the foreseeable future

        i cannot complain

        but i can marvel at the guys who are stepping up and grinding it out

        so let the phillies have their superstar (and uber expensive) rotation…let the yanks and sox have their murderers row…let the snakes play out of their heads till sept

        im digging the energy that emanates from the belle…to every part of the new giants nation

        ya…that may be hyperbole…but ive been reading the tweets of players in all parts of the system

        they all have followed what crawford did…they are following song….they see the chances that manny and ford are getting

        they know that 9 players from the 09 sj giants have made it to the bigs

        i saw the faces of the kids at sj when pablo came back to town

        its a new day, boys and girls

        this is the neukom org

        its building from within first….it is what we all have been screaming for since 03

        krueg is finally avenged

        i shall sleep well tonite

    Nate Schierholtz (who is no relation of mine, by the way) is one of the most undervalued players on the Giants’ squad. His OPS this season is .771.

    I would play him every day.

    His defense at AT&T is exceptional. Nobody has done it better, or even come close. Nobody.

    He has a cannon for an arm. He’s accurate. I laugh when runners test his arm. Confidence and competence.

    If he could hit better he’d be a perennial all star. I think he’d hit better if he had more playing time.

    I have never heard a bad word said about him as a teammate or as a person.

  13. Gman says:

    That certainly was an exciting extra inning ballgame last night. Nate the great is playing great baseball. What great timing for his hitting to come through in these situations during the last few games. Timmy got some bad breaks in the fourth inning. However I thought he pitched a great game for not having his best stuff. Hopefully the lights don’t go out in tonight’s game. Go Sanchez. Go Giants!
    Glad to see you back online Johnny.
