That pitch definitely didn't look like a strike, but they wouldn't show it in the pitch tracker.

Hope Timmy get's the calls that are 4" off the plate also.

Typical Giants, big hits to tie it, but not to break it open.

Looked good to me, well... Good enough to not take it when you have 2 strikes and 2 on.

Rome was not built in a day. Plenty of big hits in that inning.

I'm sorry guys, I'm really trying to believe that luck has played no part in the Giant's postseason success, but after that inning, so lucky. They scored another run because of an error, and a Lee HPB, it's almost like the baseball Gods are wearing black and orange tonight.

Luck is all that matters in the post season. No need to think about how the Giants remind you of watching the Padres except 2 good SP's and no Adrian Gonzalez.

Yeah, agreed, in the postseason its all about getting that lucky call or that lucky error or something like that.

That and 2 clutch hits. Lee hitting a batter is not 'luck', it's poor pitching. And an error is not 'luck' it's poor defence. By your logic, any good and/or bad performance could be considered luck as long as it's in favor of the Giants...

So you can't say to Lee, sorry bad luck about your defense? Also, if it was against the Rangers, I would say the same thing. I'm guessing you are a biased impartial Giants fan?

That isn't LUCK, that is poor play.

So there is no such thing as luck in baseball? So Huff's error in the NLCS was bad play, not bad luck, even with that nasty hop?

You seem to have forgotten what I said earlier. Being lucky is better than being good. Luck does exist, but that play wasn't luck. That was poor defense. Huff got a nasty hop, that was bad luck.

URIBE! Long at-bat and an amazing play!

Guessed wrong. Luck is something attributed in an attempt to discredit poor/good play depending on which side of the fence your on. I was not the one trying to water down a productive inning by the giants by labeling it as luck, you were. And no, I'd say 'sorry for your poor defence and pitching Lee"..
