He sure is. This is his first season giving up more hits than innings pitched. There's just nothing special about him this year.

Man. Garrett's gotta shut this game down and he gives up a HR.

Now he gives up another single. 9 hits.

2-2

Phil's up 3-1. Gotta win this.

12 base runners in less than 6 innings. Probably won't make it into the 7th.

He was looking good there for a minute...but simply too many pitches and too many base runners.

Pirates intentional walk to get to Koehler and he singles to RF - Gregory with an assist at Home for the 3rd out!

Two outfield assists at home plate this game or Cole's on the very wrong end of the score.

Yep. When he struck out the side, top of the order, in the 5th I thought "hey maybe...." But the 6th was bad. He's lucky he's not losing this game.

I can't figure out Cole this year. He is just too hittable. Is he just not able to hit spots consistently this season?

Does anyone else find Joe Block's attempts at humor annoying?

What a play by Cervelli to get Gordon at 1st. OUTSTANDING!

And there goes the lead....and as I am typing, another hit.

Cole needs to develop a better arsenal.

God Cole is so frustrating. If the Pirates lose tonight 3 of the last 4 games the Pirates lost are games he has started. Just not good enough needs to be better. Cole better not talk about getting a new contract or anything this season from the Pirates because he hasn't earned it at all.
