hector sanchez, lclaa nosotros no somos partidistas, pero al revisar las agendas de que es lo mas conveniente, vemos que romney no nos da mucha claridad como podria beneficiar a la clase trabajadora. tambien muchos esperan detalles concretos sobre propuestas al futuro de medicare, medicaid y el seguro social. yanira cruz, consejo nacional hispano sobre vejez se necesitan mas detalles sobre exactamente a que se refieren cuando hablan de proteger o mejorar, sostener los programas, necesitamos mas claridad. a pesar de que romney enfocara sus criticas a la economia, analistas empresariales tambien creen que eso tambien podria aclararse mas en los debates. mike periu, proximo international creo que realmente no nos hemos enfocado, ninguna de las 2 campanas, en el motor principal de la generacion de nuevos trabajos, y eso es la creacion de nuevas empresas. el presidente obama tendra que enfrentar su primer debate en 4 anos, mientras que romney tiene la oportunidad de recuperar terreno en las encuestas. standup: fernando pizarro, washington d.c. hoy se discutiran temas domesticos, en segmentos de 15

bruce bochy will have the luxury of a designated hitter. >> right now i would say hector sanchez.nge my mind tonight. but to be honest, that's how i'm thinking right now and he's a switch hitter and had a pretty good year with the bat when he's been out there. he's my dh right now. >> taking the opportunity to play right here dh, it will be amazing for me to have the team and just want the opportunity to help the team. >> what's the approach when you go out like that versus being in there and catching? >> it's different position specifically, dh, you're just sitting down and hard especially in this weather, but you got to be ready, you go inside and do something like sprint, little bit of stretching, but you have to be prepared for that situation. >>> here's one for you, a tiger fan has offered on craigslist to trade his three-bedroom one bath fixer upper for tickets to sold out game three tomorrow in detroit. reports say this man has several offers but no deal yet. the house as you can see here not exactly prime real estate. >>> doug fister took the scary line drive comebacker to

one big question will be hector sanchez.ht tim lincecum yesterday and has traditionally caught barry zito as well but it would be unorthodox for buster posey not to be behind the plate for two games. zito was in the same boat a week ago wednesday in cincinnati. he didn't pitch very well, but the bullpen, especially tim lincecum, bailed him out. the giants won that game and came back to win the series. with regard to zito's starts, the giants have won 12 straight games in which he has taken the baseball, so we'll see how it unfolds in this do-or-die situation. the giants trailing three games to one. they would obviously have to win today and two more times at at&t park in order to steal the series from st. louis. game time just after 5:00 pacific. pregame coverage other on comcast sportsnet bay area beginning at 4:00. live in st. louis, i'm scott reese. we'll send it back to the studio. >>> giants fans, of course, are used to these down to the wire games. >> their teams love to do it like that. never make it look easy. they s
