The Unofficial Pittsburgh Pirates Message Board

That blows

Giants walk it off on a two run homer with one out in the bottom of the 9th.

Crowe has been less than impressive for awhile now.

This team is an utter mess

Delay has reached base 3 times today, why is Shelton PH for him with VanMeter???

Shelton just loves the lefty/righty matchups when the Bucs are hitting, but he could care less when the opposing team is hitting.

Damnit Newman

Bucs battle back after trailing 0-5, to take a 6-5 lead.

Newman boots one with 2 outs allowing the tying run to score in the 7th.

Bucs show why they are the worse defensive team in the majors.

Reynolds having one helluva day with 5 RBI’s keeping the Bucs in this one today.

Wow what a meltdown.

Diamondback send 11 batters to the dish in the 7th

5 Hits 3 BB 7 runs. Bucs use 3 pitchers.

D’backs get a run back in the 6th.

Bucs with some 2 out lightning in the 6th.

Speed Killz…

Bucs 5 Diamondbacks 2 after 5 1/2

Keller nearly matches Bumgarner’s PC through 5.

Bumgarner at 83 pitches

Keller at 82 pitches.

Keller is starting to get stung pretty hard, need to get someone up in the bullpen immediately.

He should have A Very short leash in the 6th.

Woof!!

Top of the order goes down quietly in the 5th, and quickly.

Mitch right back on the bump after a long bottom of the 4th.

Mitch waits an inning and almost gives all of the runs back. Hitting the first batter of the inning is usually a recipe for disaster.

3-2 Pirates

Quick 1,2,3 inning from Keller in the third.

2-0 Bucs lead

Bumgarner PC is at 60 through 3 innings

Keller 37 pitches through 3 innings
