lose 3 in a row to the team with the worst record, and end a 4 game losing streak overall to the team with the best record.

I love this game

Attendance was only 26,579. Do they still have restrictions?

I saw the first few innings on the Giants broadcast. What a pleasure listening to Jon Miller. Very professional. No Joe Block off topic monologues. No Greg Brown nickname or catch phrase mania. No lame attempts at comedy throughout the game. But Miller can be very funny when he wants. He was the Orioles PBP guy for years and has a very witty, clever sense of humor. But he doesn't force it like Brown does.

Him and Joe Morgan were Sunday night gold back in the day for ESPN

They used to always max out capacity entire season when they were winning. Friday night first place team kind of surprising no matter who they play.

Last night Miller had clearly done his homework on the Pirates. Quite often I hear the other teams' announcers trying to act like they know something about the Pirate players and being totally wrong. But Miller was getting specific about Reynolds and Frazier. And he was talking about what a good defensive catcher Stallings is and showing how Stallings was able to get in a low stance to block pitches in the dirt despite being tall. Miller is a real pro.
