Drew Gilbert clears the bases with a double and would have been a grand slam in 29 of 30 parks to make it a 9-3 Giants lead in the 8th
Not even MORE than a double in Oracle Park…..I hate to love this place.
It was a double?
Yeah lol. And Gilbert is a pretty fast guy too
So wtf do you mean not even a double?
Whoops I mistyped, “not even MORE than a double”
Never do that again!!
I will end my bloodline for this offense
If the immediate reaction of both the pitcher and hitter is “wow that’s a no doubter”, and the ball is out of every other park, but in this one it barely makes it half way up the wall… maybe move the fences in a few feet? 😂
Which got me thinking… I wonder how many times Bonds got Oracle’d. Could he have hit 800 somewhere else?
I’m enjoying the visual of people trying to physically push a giant brick wall.
Could he have hit 800 somewhere else?
Probably so - but then you should probably also ask the question of if he’d have hit nearly as many as he did if he wasn’t blasting the juice.
You want them to move in the brick wall?
They’re not going to put a fence in front of one of the most visually distinct stadium features in all of sports.
How about just a yellow line at the top of the padding? Hit the bricks and its a HR.
Protect our Gil at all cost
That bounce was about 3 inches off from being an inside-the-park grand slam.
Could you a imagine a primarily-red team giving up an inside-the-park grand slam at Oracle?
Hahaha…
