Career .245 batter. But entered tonight with a career .320 BA vs Bucs. Career .235 hitter excluding Pirates. That is amazing that he hits Pirate pitchers that well. I bet he has about 50 stolen bases vs the Bucs. He singles or walks and before you know it he is on third base.

Hamilton has 42 of his 196 sb's against the Pirates.

Hamilton would be in the minors if not for us.

Why isn't sure handed Gift not playing second base. Hamilton on base due to an error.

Then Gerrit gets squeezed against Votto followed by a fly ball and suddenly he's on the hook...embarrassing

Or Harrison? Ugh. Sorry, its dumb to move Harrison for Gosselin. He just isn't a good 2B where there will be action.

This one is on Hurdle.

There is no reason for Gooselin to start, none whatsoever.

Gift is an elite glove on a team with very few elite gloves.

He needs to be a regular starter as long as he proves he can handle it.

And tonight Hurdle's decision cost us big-time. Just inexcusable in my opinion.

J-Hay baby! Maybe he does have another fluke 4-5 WAR season in him???

Rivero just made Votto look like a scrub...blew him away...

Only three hits by the Pirates. But they need one more hit to win.
