You play ball long enough, something like this happens.

It's about winning the series, not every game.
I am really glad I didnt watch one minute of tonights game. Mike Leake brought the Reds stinky play with him. All his fault.

Nah, Casilla sucks either way.

Yeah. He gave up walk off HRs. All his fault.

Jon Miller is great at calling a baseball game. Not so great at calling a home team's game for the home team's fans. IMO.

He's great at radio play by play, but he sucks on tv.
f**k Casilla. Watching that last night made me so mad. We will not win anthing important until we have a closer or Casilla gets his head right.

Miller doesnt know who hes broadcasting to. He gets all excited for the opposing teams' big plays. When youre listening on the radio, you rely on the announcers tone of voice. If a fly ball is heading over the fence, dont get all loud and excited to call it a HR, because in that brief moment the listener thinks maybe the Giants OF made a great leaping catch. It makes you even more annoyed in the moment.

I cant stand homers like Hawk Harrelson, but Miller is far too impartial. He gets on my nerves in several different ways.

He actually got fired by the Orioles before he came to SF for being too impartial.

I know im being picky, because we have 4 of the best announcers in the game, but Miller and Flemming both get on my nerves after a while.

Casilla is toast, mentally. Its not his year, and the sooner we get someone else in there closing games, the better.

Give Strickland a crack at it, and see how he handles the pressure. Or move back to Romo, who is proven, and always has command.

you think being too impartial might have to do with his years at ESPN calling the Sunday Night game ?

I would rather see Strick get a chance because I believe in his stuff, but I would be OK with Romo as well. Romo would be on a short leash though as his command isnt what it used to be. But he is proven.

Still pissed Osich was sent down. Should have kept him.
