Dear Brian Wilson

STOP MAKING THE 9TH INNING INTERESTING!!!!

Amen! I was metaphorically chewing my fingers down to the knuckle. What IS it about their bullpen this year?!

Same as every year.

At least some of them are showing signs of life. Yabu is pretty good, and Taschner has been strong in several outings.

Wilson is good, very good with 21 saves, but he does invoke memories of Robb Nen and his heart-attack "walk two then strike out the side" moments.

i never would have taken you for a Beach Boys fan.

is it something like:
"Help, Help me gridlore, help me get it out of the park....."?

or did you have fun, fun, fun, til the umpire took that play away?

/i learn something new *every* day. should i include a Hawaiian shirt in your next care package? (Pendleton's you can get...%-)

Are you kidding? Mom made sure that my upbringing included the Beatles and the Beach Boys. Endless Summer was constantly on the record player during summer vacation.

But this Brian Wilson is the Giants' closer, and yes, he's already been tagged with "Beach Boy" as a nickname.
