the Pittsburgh Pirates have scored 10+ runs in a game vs the Cardinals.

thanks.

I got it ready Friday when it was supposed to be Pineiro and Snell and just got cable back about 15 minutes ago.

Must be because of the big LF in PNC, right?

do we really have to play out the string? Can’t we just forfeit?

anyone getting the game via extra innings?

OR Glaus for that matter. Neither will have to go on the DL with expanded lineups. I can’t believe that Molina could warm up pitchers between innings but couldn’t PH when we had a runner at 2nd in the 12th.

Annnnd I’m turning off the game.

5 times in 1 season?

who talk about how he “wills the team to win”?

Sigh. This game is painful.

if it will finish over .500

since June.

Until today.

it looks like Yadi might be coming out of the game

[/small victories]

Mozeliak says it is Colby’s personal decision and doesn’t really have to do with his knee.

There was a kid on t.v. who yelled at Pujols when he caught a fly ball in foul territory. He said, “You stink Pujols.” Yes, other things that are no good:
1. Winning the lottery
2. Sex
3. Free beer

Stupid kids….

THE GENIUS STRIKES AGAIN!

Have they just given up or is nothing at all going their way? Or both? This is pathetic.

So when the Cardinals score six or more runs you get cheap drinks at Mobil right? How about when they get blown out by six runs or more you get 25 cent drinks at Budweiser for like 3 hours after the game?! Anyone here work at AB?

for the last week of the year.

That strikeout was the FIRST in the game for Pirates pitchers? And the Cardinals have TWO runs? GAHHHHH

maybe one st louis team can pull of a win today

i thought miles was the outfielder now?

miles had pitched more innings than he had played in right field

with call ups available, this seems a very unnecessary limitation. i realize it would cost them 50-100k for every player they bring up, but they have millions invested in these guys to date, so it just seems more penny wise, pound foolishness from the front office

will larue catch? or will it be miles?

or high luke warm?

What the hell is going on?

at a position that he might actually be able to help out at in the future. Why put him at 1B?

I saw that from the TV camera, how could the ump miss that?

of course that would be decent umping, so of course it wasn’t overturned

I would have liked to have seen Tony argue that until he got tossed

When our best RF is playing 2B?

and Tony has completely emptied the bench?

Play a hard 9 my ass.

what’s going on?

are throwing punches in the tunnel.

where is this magical tunnel they are fighting in?

If they do, we actually pick up a half game on them.

I almost want to freaking Astros to sweep the Cubs now and have the Astros, Phillies, Mets, Dodgers make the playoffs…only to watch the Cubs and Brewers fans cry.

Then again, I hate the Astros more.

have been such a drain.

by the Pirates? My God, where am I?

Mr Spock just asked me for my agonizer….since when does he have a goatee?

Looks like the CC trade will be for not. If it wasn’t for their arrogance they showed when they played us I would feel sorry for them. Oh well, I think the Phillies have a better chance of beating the Cubs in the playoffs than the Brewers did. I can’t wait to see Yost get canned at some point next season.

this is what happens when you spend 3 days dodging a hurricane.

Dude’s batting .355 and slugging almost .600. He’d be third in the league in batting, third in slugging, and fifth in OPS if he were qualified. That’s some crazy shit (small sample size, etc.).

The last couple of weeks have been a non-stop slap in the face. I know as fans we often live in the present and the most recent failure is always the worst…but, consider:

• We’ve played terribly, coughing up a great chance to get back into the race.
• In addition, it seems the Gods of baseball just don’t like us much this year. Hard-hit balls are swallowed by terrible fielders. Mental mistakes cost the team victories. Everything falls for the other team. So it goes. I’m thinking in particular of the last two games of the Cubs series.
• The ASTROS passed us despite having a worse team.
• We got swept by the freaking Pirates, who have been the worst team in baseball over the past two months.
• Rasmus is still “hurt”.
• Carpenter is done for the year and suddenly next season isn’t a surefire proposition.
• Ankiel was finally shut down, weeks too late.
• Randy Flores made his triumphant return. Fans everywhere ran for cover.
• Chipper Jones passed Albert in the batting race.
• People are now talking about Carlos Delgado as a legitimate MVP candidate. This, despite the likelihood Albert will have better stats in every single statistical category by the end of the year and helped prop up a Cardinals team that is considerably worse than the Mets.
• Worst of all? Carlos Zambrano throws a no-hitter. BARF

I just want to scream and cry at the same time. What did we do to deserve this? Did Tony and Big Bill make a deal with Lucifer to win the 2006 World Series? It’s been little but sorrow and empty chances ever since. Yeah, we contended for much of this year and we allowed ourselves to hope. I was one of the many optimists here, and while I still want to be optimistic, the last week have left me pretty freaking dejected.

our new outfielders:Miles and Kennedy.
