San Francisco Giants slugger Juan Uribe did s0mething no Giant has done in 40 years. He drove in 6 runs...........in one inning of baseball.
In the second inning against the Chicago Cubs in Chicago, the Giants scored 9 runs. Here's how they did it:
Juan Uribe homer scores 2
Freddie Sanchez single scores 1
Buster Posey single scores 1
Ryan Dempster wild pitch scores 1
Juan Uribe grand slam scores 4
The 2nd inning saw 14 Giants come up to bat. Two batters were hit by pitch to reach first base. Giants starting pitcher Madison Bumgarner had two singles. But the inning without question belonged to Juan Uribe who blasted two homers for a total of six runs. He was the main reason for Chicago pulling Dempster, their starting pitcher.
The Giants went on to win the game 13-0 and leave Chicago winning 2 of 3 in the series. For the time they're tied for first place in the division as well as in the wild card race.
The Giants have 9 games left in the regular season, all are against NL west division opponents. All 9 games will play a role in deciding if the Giants advance to the playoffs or be remembered as just a nice 2010 cindefella story that ended when the four-horse carriage reverted back to mutts pulling a wheelbarrow. Time will tell. And the clock is 9 ticks away from 12 o'clock midnight.
Time and Pressure
Thrill and Agony
Victory and Defeat
Torture!
