Lewis On Fire

The Giants offense woke up against the Cardinals, scoring 21 runs in the four-game series. A lot of credit has to be given to Fred Lewis, who is getting his chance as an everyday player with the injury to Dave Roberts. Lewis batted leadoff in all four games and went 9-18, with six doubles and a triple. He raised his average up to .333, and he has an OPS of .997. Giants' fans shouldn't expect those numbers to stay so high, but Lewis is proving that there is in fact some reason for hope. With Roberts likely to be out a good chunk of the season, we should get a pretty good idea of what Fred Lewis is capable of this year.

... not too mention timely hitting, like yesterday's two-out game-tying double!

It has been difficult to be a Giants fan these last several years - losing records, injuries, and bad contracts. We may be critical - but we stand by our team through good times and bad. The Giants remain one of the most storied franchises in the history of baseball and have a crop of new stars ready to add new pages to the Giants history books. Lincecum, Cain, Sanchez, Wilson and Sandoval are giving us reasons to be excited. Times may not always be stellar, but the Giants always give us something to talk about.
