5/24 game thread

I've seen enough of SRod against RHP'ing for a lifetime!

.105 BA and 23 K's in 57 AB's this season against RHP.

Really???

Whoops ... sorry about the typos in my last post. I'm at the ACC tournament and trying to watch the game here, and work, and keep up with the Pirates, and obviously I'm not succeeding.



What I was trying to say was ... I don't think our bats are capable of overcoming an opposing grand slam. It just seems very difficult for us to scratch out one run these days, not to mention four.

I don't mind the error. I don't even mind the GS. Suarez is a good hitter, and it's a hitter's park. That stuff happens. I do mind walking the opposing pitcher to leadoff the inning. He gets the pitcher, and they've got one out already, that inning is totally different.

Give Elliot Avent hell for me. I know him pretty well.

Even if you aren't succeeding, that sounds like a really good day.

At least this home run is a solo.



5-0 Bad Guys.



Meanwhile Luis Castillo, carrying an ERA north of 6.0 into the game, will almost certainly leave the game with a better ERA then our ace.

I really mind it when all three happen in the same inning.

You a Tarhill fan? If so, you’re not having a good week at all between the Pirates and UNC!
