Yes, This Woman Sang God Bless America Wearing That Ridiculous Giants Hat

Yes, the lady who sang God Bless America in the 7th inning at AT&T Park in San Francisco on Thursday night was wearing that hat. According to the Philly Inquirer, the woman in question is Tammy Nelson and she was wearing the San Francisco skyline on her noggin. That was easily the strangest dome piece I’ve ever seen someone wear, that’s for sure. Cher from Clueless thinks it’s a little much.

As for the game, let’s talk about it. What a performance by the Phillies’ bullpen picking up Roy Halladay with three scoreless innings allowing just one hit. Jayson Werth had a huge home run to provide the extra cushion, and he deserves special recognition for getting it out over the right field wall going opposite field.

Because of the excellent performance by Philadelphia’s pen, the mistake-filled third inning by the Giants was enough for Philly. Aubrey Huff booting the Shane Victorino ground ball into center field allowing the two runs to score was the difference. Before that, we had another “baseball needs instant replay” moment.

Roy Halladay dropped down a sac bunt with men on first and second and it was clearly fielded by Buster Posey in foul territory. Halladay didn’t even run it out because he knew it was foul, so he ended up being thrown out at first. Still, the Phillies ended up with men on second and third with nobody out. They would have had men on first and second if replay were utilized. Moreover, what was Bruce Bochy thinking that he didn’t even come out to complain? Where was he on that? Just another example of him screwing up and why I don’t think much of Boch as a manager.
