Willie Dills graces the mic to recap the last several series of Giants baseball. This team has been testing our patience, and when they perform well (like, vs LA and Oakland), we think maybe they’re coming out of it, but then they fall back into their regular pattern of no offense and soul-crushing endings like last night’s 2-out walk off vs Arizona. Willie covers a bit of the trade of Patrick Bailey to the Guardians, Rafael Devers’ struggles, Adames’ underperformance, and the fact that Casey Schmitt is the Giants best player. Maybe baseball in the 1880s is more entertaining than Giants baseball right now. They are 6-6 in their last 12, but that’s not going to pull them out of their hole in the National League, sitting at 20-29 with the 4th-worst record in MLB. Listen and commiserate with Willie.

Willie, Ben and Chad once again head to Zeke’s after a Giants game to talk about many exciting events. First and foremost, the Giants blanked the Diamondbacks 5-0 to maintain their 2.5 game deficit behind the Dodgers and their 4 game lead on the wild card. We also talk about “video gamer’s” night with Todd McFarlane before the game (Ben got the sweet Assassin’s Creed figurine).

Even more exciting was the fact that we had clubhouse access for the first time. Chad snagged interviews with Panda, Pence and Affeldt before the game, and those interviews can be found here. We also spoke with Matt Duffy after the game (interview is at the end of this bonusode) about his critical 7th inning double to put the game away. Pour a shot and a beer, sit down, and enjoy another bonusode with the boys from TortureCast!

We’ll be in the clubhouse again for Saturday’s game against LA. Should be an anxiety-ridden ride for all.
