Dear Lord baby Jesus, lyin' there in your ghost manger, just lookin' at your Baby Einstein developmental videos, learnin' 'bout shapes and colors. I would like to come to you for guidance. Guide us into the path of righteousness today against the Giants. Please give J Hey/McCann/AGon/Brooks/Lee the strength to hit the evil out of that little baseball, while also guiding Timmy to a victory. Also, if we could just massacre the shite out of Johnathan Sanchez, that'd be nice.
