Hey Ross,

Do you remember who won the WS in 2017?

Old friend JD Davis leads off for the Giants in the 2nd

Bielak looks good.

JD had 22 HR in 19.

Only double digit total since then was 12 last year.

He missed quite a bit of time.

Top 2nd.

Davis - hard grounder (ev - 103mph) up the middle for 4-3 put out.
Sabol - Ks looking on nice FB strike that paints outside of the plate.
Villar - F8.

Pena - grounds out 5-3.
Julks - grounds out 6-3.
Meyers - F7 (after long foul down RF line that missed extra bases by about an inch).

End 2 - Giants 0 Astros 1.

Damn.

Astros need to put some hollywood squibs on the foul line. Jake missed chalk by millimeters.

Impossible to get any closer than that

The shot down the line was pretty cool.

You could see the dirt than landed on the chalk and just make out the divot.

What’s a reasonable stretch for Bielak? Has he been starting/long relief?

Tandem starter in AAA, he’s maxed out at 5IP this season

2-1 Giants
