They Needed That One

Had the Giants lost yesterday ... man, I don't even want to think about it. That would have made the team 1-7 after an excruciatingly painful loss. The team got an oh-so-solid start from Tim Lincecum, plus two shutout bullpen innings before Brian Wilson blew the one-run lead in the ninth. Thankfully he minimized the damage, and Brad Hennessey came through with two more shutout innings, allowing the Giants to win it in the eleventh on Molina's timely jack.

Batting cleanup, Molina is off to a strong star and is currently the team leader in homers and RBIs. I was trying to think yesterday of who would be representing the Giants in this year's All-Star Game and I was thinking Molina, and potentially Lincecum.

I'm bummed Lincecum lost the chance to go 2-0, but nothing gets a team fired up like a walk-off. Let's hope this can be start of something ... anything!
