standing on the shoulders of Giants

Take that critics of all those Giants players starting the All-Star Game... and that, and that, and that, and that!

Talk about a good showing. I could hardly have imagined anything more lofty than what they did. The whiners and complainers sure must have felt small for what they said and wrote about Matt, Buster, Pablo, and MVP Melky before the game. 

I gotta say, I'm beginning to like Matt Kemp. That's Dodger Matt Kemp. He's showing that the Dodger-Giant rivalry is strictly between the lines when those two teams are playing each other. Otherwise, they're all playing the same game. I've even heard a story about how he grew up the biggest 49ers/Joe Montana fan. That's good too! 

Has there ever been an All-Star team with a Chipper, a Buster, and a Melky all on it? 

Did yesterday's game set a record for number of Cabreras?
