The G-men are seriously breakin my heart... Our bullpen absolutely unraveled, giving up 5 runs in the top of the 9th inning to lose our lead, after Schmiddtie had thrown a gem into the 7th.
Ok, here's a crazy statistic - It's bottom of the 1st, Game 1 of a 3-game series vs. the Dodgers at SBC Park [Brad Hennessey started off the top of the inning, with 25 y.o. Adrian Beltre hitting a bases-clearing, 2-run double (Beltre currently leads the leagues with 47 HRs)]. After Ray Durham leads off with a solo homer, followed by Pedro Feliz's base hit, Bonds is up at bat. He draws a 4-pitch walk, his 114th Intentional Walk of the SEASON! To put that in perspective - there are currently only 22 active players who have atleast 100 Intentional Walks in their CAREERS! I can't even fathom what Bonds could do if they only pitched to him...

Woohoo! The Giants WIN over the Milwaukee Brewers tonight bring them only 2 1/2 games behind the Dodgers in the NL West and a 1/2 game ahead of the Cubs in the Wild Card race.
Barry didn't hit #700 in Milwaukee - he's saving it for SBC Park! BUT... he went 3 for 3 with a walk in tonights shutout game in Milwaukee! I didn't get to watch the game but did see highlights - absolutely CLUTCH and power hitting. And Pedro Feliz is really steppin up with his defense.
Bay Area Ball, in general, is so hot right now. The Oakland A's remain 2 games up, over the Anaheim Angels, in the AL West Race. Pitcher Rich Harden is 7-1 since the All Star Break and Bobby Crosby is my top pick for Rookie of the Year, for sure!
Restaurant Review - 2 weeks ago, Dean and I had dinner at Amarin Thai on Castro Street in Mountain View before Salsa class. Absolutely exquisite dinner and ambiance.
I've already reviewed Barracuda Restaurant on Primrose Avenue in Burlingame, but had a chance to revisit for Dean's first time there last week and had the most awesome dish - Salmon Curry... mmmmm... This time, I had dessert, Ghirardelli Chocolate Souffle and it was scrumdillyumptious. I was so full after dinner, but as soon as we left, I was already thinking of the next time I would have that Salmon Curry.
