Forgive me for quoting a show that everyone watches but no one admits to liking, but I watch every San Francisco Giants game, which means about 250 times a year Wilmer Flores comes to bat at Oracle Park and I’ll be there for youuuuuuuuu comes blasting through the park speakers loud enough to make it into my apartment, and so I’ve got Friends on the brain.

So here’s what happened in the Giants game:

Yep. The Giants were indeed just cruising along, thanks to a much-needed hit from Evan Longoria (who hit 2-4 with a double), and one of the more impressive Giant swings of the season: Brandon Crawford taking on dead center with ease, against a lefty who, in his career, had surrendered just three home runs to left-handed hitters in 129 plate appearances.
