He and Tellez are on the same diet

Shelton doesn't do too many things right but I thought it was a good move to let Ortiz go 3 innings.

Can the Pirates survive 3 innings of bullpen work?

He tracked it to the wall and jumped, but didn’t get it. It bounced off the wall above his glove and ricocheted back into the grass, rolling for a while towards the infield before he tracked it down.

Hayes HR! 3-0.

Gonzales at SS. Interesting. Cruz was supposed to be the team's superstar in waiting. He's now usually on the bench vs LHPs. He's hitting .241. He's 2nd in MLB is striking out. He's got power but his 7 HRs ranks him in 71st place in MLB. His 20 RBIs ranks him 132nd. In the field, he leads MLB SSs in...

Looks like one of those decisions made prior to the game. Gotta follow the formula. So now they can only hope the relievers do as well as Falter was doing and if the relievers are really needed tomorrow, they might not be available.
