The Giants get the road trip started in style with a big win over the Braves. I was at our local watering hole and had my back to the TV and by the time I turned around it was two-zip Atlanta. I had little to worryabout though as our boys responded with a six-spot. Yep, they sent ten men up to bat and plated six of them. I like those kinds of innings. Which brings me to a technical point. What does "batting around" mean to you? Is it nine men sent to the plate with the tenth, the first batter of the inning, in the on-deck circle?
