I had sort of forgotten about those f'ing rugrats running around getting in the way.  Just goes to show the arrogance of those no-Cal pricks with their playground atmosphere and romper room attitude.  I wish game 7 was following so I can watch that little shit cry at the same time that I  was screaming my head off in the right field pavillion.

Those kids were indeed brats...
they'd fake like they were going to give some BP baseballs to the crowd and then throw it back into the collection area for the BP balls.

They did not give away a single ball the entire 4 games.

All my friends and I were watching the game at a Halloween party.  By the time the bottom of 7 rolled around, I had decided to drink my sorrows away.  Of course, I ended drinking myself stupid in celebration instead.  I got stoned too and woke up at dawn, swimming in puke in a planter in my friend's backyard.  Good times.

Ah I C...
He had been beaten and bruised all game (he was crying earlier in that inning) and he had just backhanded a ball thrown by Ape and chucked it to 3rd to try to catch Lofton.  The guy had a bangup game behind the plate.  Frankie's pitch just broke like hell.

It was all destined to make us fear the worst, man.  Imagine if it was only 2-0 when Spiezio came up...

Having it be a five-run deficit made the comeback all that more amazing.

Get those grumpy Giants fans ready...
to trash cars on DuPont street after the game...broke my antenna and many other car flags along the street after the game.

That was the point at which I knew we had psychologically $%#$ed over the Norcalers.  Classy all the way are they.

At the game, this was the point where the crowd really started to believe we could do it.

Solid contact there...
I think it was a good move to bunt JoMo.  It just didn't work out.  Could've gotten the "jello jigglin'" a bit earlier.

Something I noticed
Even when they were down 5-0, the place was rocking.

At the mauling in October, the chowdaheads were louder than the Angels fans.

What happened?
