Giants Midnight Replay

commentary on the sf giants from 2907 miles away

4 Out of 5 Omars

Last season I used a rating system called Neukoms to rate how the Giants played. This year I figured I’d switch it up a bit. There will be less coverage (because no one seems willing to help me out here), and therefore the Neukom rating system seems a bit antiquated. 

This year I will cover as many games as I am able to watch (and keep up with my masters program). Which figures to be about 1/2 the games. I will be doing a weekly round up and sporadic game to game coverage when I can. 

This year I will continue with certain aspects of last years game coverage such as:

• The hero and the villain of the game

• The screenshots

Also I will be adding:

• Either a defensive award if it’s a week round-up, or a defensive rating for the team if it’s game coverage. I will call these Omar ratings…. as in Omar Vizquel, possibly the best defensive player to ever wear a Giants uniform and my favorite player at the moment. 

• Velez Award….. basically the fail of the game. 

• FHOTG (figure that one out!) and some more surprises. 

Tonight is the first televised game round up. So keep ya eyes peeled for coverage.
