Idiot On The Field Gets A Knee To The Neck And A Face Full Of Dirt
I'm not sure if these San Francisco bros had a clear plan in mind when they rushed the field at last night's Reds-Giants game, but if they did I don't think it involved eating the warning track....

Seagulls Are Invading AT&T Park And Shitting Everywhere
With AT&T Park being built next to the water, seagulls are bound to show up and stop by some San Francisco Giants games as they wind down. Lately, though, the gulls have been visiting in greater numbers, and they're fucking everything up....

Tim Lincecum Hurls No-Hitter In 148-Pitch Performance

Police: Chad Gaudin Groped A Woman On A Gurney In An ER
Giants reliever Chad Gaudin is charged with one count of open and gross lewdness, after an incident at a Las Vegas emergency room way back in January. It's a bizarre story that has somehow been kept quiet for six months....

This Giants Security Guard Keeps Getting In The Way
Poor guy. He's just down there in the left field corner doing his job. A job that involves standing around all night, staying alert, and trying to keep his antennae up in case some asshole throws something or interferes with play or behaves like a drunken lout. Now he's got to figure out what the he...

San Jose Sues MLB For Not Letting The A's Move
San Jose is ready for the A's. They've got a plot of land. They're willing to finance a new stadium. Hell, there's already a stadium naming rights deal waiting. But nothing can happen until the Giants sign off or MLB gets off its ass, neither of which seem immediately likely. So it's lawsuit time....

Dodgers Fan Gives Lesson In Fandom During Fifth-Grade Graduation Speech
We don't have much background info to go with this video, but it looks like young Casey was asked to share his favorite memory from the past year during his fifth-grade graduation ceremony. Casey flips the script, though, and chooses to talk about his least-favorite memory: the day the Giants won th...

The Padres' Will Venable Made One Of The Best Catches Of The Season
Bear with our hyperbole on this one. Because there was what Will Venable did—sprinting back toward the wall and laying out to make a backhanded catch over his head, à la Jim Edmonds—and there was the situation in which he did it....

Ángel Pagán's Walk-Off Inside-The-Park Home Run Was Just Foolish
So this is what the San Francisco Giants do. Sort of. They lead the majors with seven walk-off home runs already this year, so we guess that they found a way to win at home to the Rockies even when they were down 5-4 in the 10th inning shouldn't be too much of a surprise. This, though, wasn't just a...

The Wall Is In Bryce Harper's Head
After Bryce Harper clumsily ran face-first into the right-field wall at Dodger Stadium, we were assured—by Harper himself and others—that the incident would not prevent Harper from “playing hard” in the future. Those assurances may have been given a bit hastily....

Pitcher Tim Lincecum Slips, Busts Ass, Gets Called For a Balk
Last night, San Francisco Giants pitcher Tim Lincecum was on the mound against the Colorado Rockies. In the fourth inning he lined up to throw a pitch, slipped, and toppled over. He got called for a balk....
