That Bat Boy Sure Looks Familiar…

And about 9 feet smaller than the machine Pat the Bat. Looks like Affeldt, Bumgarner, and the rest of the crew had quite the chuckle.

Tim Lincecum’s Body Double Is…A Taxi Driving Tim Lincecum?!

Meet Luis. A Brazilian born taxi-cab driver who’s currently living in the United States – San Francisco, to be exact. Unfortunately for “Luis”, he has the horrible luck of looking nearly identical to Giants ace Tim Lincecum and he can’t stop people from bugging him about it. Granted, the dude in the video, striking as he might be to Tiny Tim –...

Zito Tosses 5 Scoreless in Giants Win Over White Sox

The Giants beat the White Sox Wednesday 4-2 in the 14th game of spring training. The big story of the day was Zito-definitely some good news for him since the San Francisco Chronicles fiasco last week that had him being cut by opening day. The 5 innings Zito lasted was longer than any Giants pitcher in spring training thus far and he only threw 50 pitches, so I think it’s safe...

Padres Ace Latos Doing His Best To Create A Giant Rivalry

No matter how you feel about Padres ace, Mat Latos – one can’t deny his stuff. The guy is absolutely filthy. His movement and speed combined with that towering frame is a creature that visits major league players dreams. So questioning Latos’ ability is pointless – he’s absolutely legit. The problem many  find with Latos though is his questionable attitude...
