Well, the long ball made it a little interesting today. Of course Polanco wasn't one of them

It was too dam hot and the ump just wanted to get it over

Um, that "line smash" went for one base.

I know you think you're some sort of math wizard but that was Polanco's eighth hit in his last 50 at bats or so. Even a dope like me knows that's not good.

Actually, Polanco's hit was a soft bloop over the infield in the 2nd inning. His "line smash for extra bases" was a low line drive into the glove of the right fielder and it clanged off his glove for a 2 base error. It was not a hit. He's still at .199.

The Pirates are now 12-38 in the division.

He needs a rest

Rest? With his kind of bat, he's itching to get dumped!

Thanks for that. I didn't see or hear any of the game. I made a mistake and believed Shed. I should know better.

For me they are getting tough to watch again. The long losing streaks are something. Now the Brew Crew comes to Pittsburgh, and they will probably sweep the Pirates.

You stand a better chance pinch hitting Brault.

If we can't hit STL's pitching, we certainly aren't hitting Milwaukee's.
