There was no sympathy for Cliff Lee this time. In the second inning against Lee, Tim Lincecum threw fastball (coal foul), fastball (ball) and then a slider 84 km / h - that accelerates bat Lee - resulting in a double.
This time, Mitch Moreland in the second after a double, Lincecum hit the area with three straight fastballs of 92, 91 and 92 mph. Lee turned and was lost in the first two, and then grounded out weakly to shortstop Edgar Renteria in the third.
Through three and a half years, Lee has thrown 60 pitches to get three outs than Lincecum, who has thrown 59 pitches.Bottom of the third: Rangers 2, Giants 2
Cliff Lee allowed multiple runs in one last entry on September 23, about 34 days ago 42 entries. However, he worked with two men in most of the entry of Edgar Renteria reached on an error and Andres Torres was beaten by a pitch.
Freddy Sanchez is an audition for Cody Ross this week - that is, destructive of the Giants new unexpected playoffs - turning a second time to score a run, that Buster Posey followed with an RBI single.
On both occasions, however, a broker was held at third because of Texas left fielder Nelson Cruz retrieved the ball quickly. Vladimir Guerrero had been playing smaller AT & T Park's left field rightfield instead of - as most experts had expected - the Giants would win 3-2, as a second career that has marked every two or Sanchez Posey just because you have taken too much time to wander over Guerrero.Rangers 2, Giants 0: Start of the Third
If the regulator does not succeed, try of the curve. Tim Lincecum started both Josh Hamilton and Nelson Cruz with curveballs in the second time through the alignment of the Rangers. Tiny Tim needed only eight pitches to remove Texas 3-4-5 hitters in order and keep them off the scoreboard for the first time.Bottom of the second: Rangers 2, Giants 0
If you had asked any Giants before the game if he wanted a game used bat Cody Ross as a souvenir, I would have gladly said yes - but would not want to fan the only way made like a bat out of hand Ross and turned several rows into the stands. Ross flew on the next pitch.
One more for San Francisco: Hitters than Ross and Buster Posey came into tonight's game with just eight extra-base hits, but Freddy Sanchez and Aubrey Huff doubled in each of the first two episodes of Cliff Lee.Rangers 2, Giants 0: start of the Second
Cliff Lee is not a deceptive pitcher - who pounds the strike zone and shoot straight with 75 percent shooting - but that does not apply to work in the batting cage. Showed coal, only to pull the bat back and bend, which leads to a sacrifice fly by Andrus.
This is not the same Lincecum of the Giants have been in three previous postseason starts. He's throwing strikes (a two-to-strike-ball ratio), but theirs is not to break sharply. Cue the after party now skeptical about whether their ALCS Game 6 appearance of relief is working against you. It was his normal between-start days to shoot, but had not worked out of a bullpen since April 2008. He did pull completely out of the main straight on Saturday, a skill that is putting into practice this evening with six runners who reached base in the first two innings.Bottom of the first: Rangers 1, Giants 0
Rangers experiment with Vladimir Guerrero in the AT & T rightfield large park almost failed in the first. Guerrero, who only played 18 games there this year, was too deep, forcing the second baseman Ian Kinsler to pursue a pop-up half the first-base line near the visitors bullpen.
As it turned out, Kinsler made a great catch over his shoulder and turned to double by Freddy Sanchez to second base for a game-ending double entry. However, Guerrero was his recklessness at the beginning of the right. Look for a defensive replacement as David Murphy in the sixth or seventh innings.
dependence at the beginning of Tim Lincecum in his slider - a pitch that has been successful, but only with the addition a month ago - he got in trouble early. So too did his absentmindness.
Andrus Elivs Vladimir Guerrero singled and everyone in the slider, and Lincecum fell behind in the count to Michael Young, who spoke with a slider. Later in the inning, Nelson Cruz, land back to Lincecum, who persecuted the young back to third base, but never threw the ball to the base, apparently thinking that the track runner will be there for easy label- one or the other. Instead, Young was removed safely.
As talk of what has been on the Rangers game running, Andrus, whose only opened the game, strange to not work until the playing field a full-count walk to Young, despite Lincecum allowed, 27 the 30 broker-dealers to successfully steal this season.Pregame
Lincecum, however, escaped, allowing only one run after Ian Kinsler hit a game-ending double entry.
16:53 The loudest applause during pre-game introductions went to the Giants, Brian Wilson, Buster Posey, Cody Ross, Aubrey Huff, Dominican Juan Uribe, Tim Lincecum and, yes, the Rangers catcher Bengie Molina, who San Francisco traded to Texas in July. (Having played for both teams this season, Molina will receive a World Series ring, no matter who wins.)
And because it is a knowledgeable fan base, lefty specialist Javier Lopez - who closed Phillies Chase Utley and Ryan Howard in the late innings of the ALCS - received a remarkable ovation. His mission in the World Series will be to neutralize Texas Championship Series MVP, Josh Hamilton, left-handed slugger who won the title of his league in batting this season.
After an enthusiastic national anthem Grammy winner John Legend, we are just minutes from first pitch.
16:28 From kayaks to yachts, McCovey Cove, where the total seats and the rest of AT & T Park is under way on a nice evening later in the Bay Area.
Giants Hall of Famer Orlando Cepeda, Monte Irvin, Juan Marichal, Willie Mays, Willie McCovey and Gaylord Perry soon flock to the mound for a ceremonial first pitch, but the stars that follow the hill that is the history of this Night World Series Game 1.
Winners of the Cy Young Cliff Lee of the Rangers and Tim Lincecum of the Giants down in mourning. Lee's team has won eight career starts in the postseason, Lincecum is 1-1 in three starts in his first playoffs, but that was a complete game shutout of 14 strikeouts in two hits at this stage for a Division Series game 1 victory over the Braves.
Asked on Tuesday what makes the Giants lineup dangerous, Lee replied: "I think they are dangerous because they have very good pitchers." Translation: Your crime is not dangerous.
Moreover, the truth serum Lee was not limited to the subtle digs at his opponent. When offered a question about why softball Ron Washington is a good manager, "When you have a team like this, would be hard to screw up that, to be honest with you, at least offensively," said Lee. "... I feel like I could fill the lineup every day and throw it out there." Well.
Now Washington is confronted with Giants skipper Bruce Bochy, whose lineup insights and knowledge of double switch having helped his club advance so far despite a low crime.
So begins the first full World Series to the west of the Mississippi from the appearance of the Giants for the last time in the Fall Classic, this park in 2002.
