Fucking Fox and this saturday afternoon baseball monopoly. 0-0 in the bottom of the fifth. Ortiz has six K's through 4.1 innings, while Lincecum has eight K's through five innings.

Bottom 5th: Giants have scored 2, DoRay is livid saying that Ortiz blocked the plate and Winn should have been out.

End 5th Astros 0, Giants 2

Pisses me off.  Per DoRay, Lincecum got a ball called on what easily should have been strike 3 (which would have resulted in no runs this inning).  Then on the last score DoRay say the replay shows that the runner did not touch the plate on the passed ball (for the 2nd run).
In the end, my dissolution with the game of baseball will not be a result of any loss of love for the game, rather from the realization that I can no longer bear the anger its supposed stewards cause to be built up in my soul. -Lee (01/08/2013)

22-0 in two days. Amazing how poorly guys wearing Houston uniforms play against guys wearing Giants uniforms.
