<t>Bido is the type of guy who, if he were making his MLB debut against the Pirates, would go seven innings, give up two walks and two hits, no runs, with eight K's. But since he's pitching FOR the Pirates and not against them, he'll go two innings, give up eight runs on ten hits, walk four, hit a g...

On TV it looks like it's pouring there. I can't believe they're playing this game. It's the first of six games the Pirates have in Chicago. Plenty of opportunities to make this one up. Someone is going to roll an ankle or pull a muscle or something.

BTW, 3-3 for those not watching. Two jacks for Jack.

Suwinski! Stay hot, dude! This guy really is Pedro Alvarez. When he's on, he's as good as anyone. When he's not, it's a struggle to even hit a foul ball.

<t>His most recent pop up in the third inning notwithstanding, which happened about one minute before I posted this, Santana has been good for the Bucs. His defense has been excellent, and he's provided more than I expected with the bat. Having to play nearly everyday has been detrimental to him, IM...

Have to confess, I looked at the radar and didn't think there was any chance they got this game in. I went to go do something else and got a notification on my phone that Suwinski hit a homer. Nice start.

<t>6-3 home stand is good. Stinks losing 2/3 to the A's, but that's baseball. Much more important to beat St. Louis (division opponent) and the Mets (could be in a Wild Card race with them). Remember, with no game 163, the first tie-breaker is head-to-head. Bucs have a 2-1 H2H lead against the Mets ...
