Obviously I hope I'm wrong but I expect

Hill to get lit up today

we make it to the second inning, and we're not behind yet!

Already 2 strikeouts. I have a $5 parlay bet with K's by Hill and Civale. I have Hill for 4+ with Civale 6+

If he only gives up 6, that would actually be the best performance by the SP this series!

I am wrong so far.

If the bucs could only hit

Gonzalez again late to cover first on a bunt.

That’s 3 times since he has been called up and it is simply not acceptable

I like the emotion that Hill shows on the mound.

Some would say it’s rather bush but players (Suwinski, Gonzales) need to get the message that you are causing the pitcher to throw more pitches than they should

4th inning could have been worse

Following the Pirates for over 55 years and I cannot recall a team that has struggled so many times this season to hit and with so many strikeouts. Strikeouts are empty outs

for what it is worth the Bucs are 8th in NL in striking out although they are 15th in runs.

Guardians should be overconfident with this 4-0 score. The setting is right for a big Bucs comeback.

Cleveland baserunner steals second but Brown fails to mention it

until 4 minutes later
