At the risk of offering you a can of pudding, waiting for you to take a bite, then sharing what the FDA considers to be acceptable levels of rat feces in canned pudding, I want to discuss how the Braves lost Tuesday night’s game. The Giants won, and that pleases me greatly, but the eighth inning deserves some scrutiny and guffaws. Scruffaws.
The inning started with the Giants trailing, 2-0. Or, as I like to call a two-run deficit, “trailing 8-0.” All it would take was a bloop and a blast, but the Giants aren’t so good at the blasts, and the bloops tended to pile up and rot.
