Los Angeles Dodgers: 7
San Francisco Giants: 3

After the top of the ninth, that score was 3-0 SF. Yup, our deleted, deleted bullpen gave up seven deleted runs while only getting ONE deleted out!

Hermanson? You're fired. For impersonating a closer. You walked three batters in a half-inning.
Ransom? You're fired. For impersonating a shortstop. When you are practically handed a game-winning double-play ball, you're supposed to catch the deleted thing, not look at it and say "oh look, a baseball on the ground, how pretty!"
Franklin? You're fired. Giving up a grand slam on your second pitch of the game is not making the Penguin happy.

Felipe Alou? you're the genius who pulled Devi Cruz to put in Ransom! Retirement is looking pretty good right now...

So, the fate of the Giants now rests with the Colorado Rockies. We need to win tomorrow, and have the Rockies win their final two games against the Astros to get the wildcard.

Since the Rockies appear to have gone into "roll over and die" mode, I'm not holding my breath.

Um, all I'm getting is a screen telling me to install a plug in, and that jumps me to an Apple stopre webpage.

The installation link should have gone to the QuickTime page, not the main Apple page, but we appear to have picked up some adware that's trying to get us to register for some shopping-premium service; I'm gonna re-run Norton tonight and see if I can't kill the bastard. In any event, I downloaded the most recent QT version, and the link still isn't working.
