Austin Meadows! It would be huge if he can be a star right out of the box.

Yeah. Meadows needs to sit for Polanco. ;D

Surprised by Brownie’s comments about the home plate and 2nd base rules. He’s adamant that the rules should not have been messed with. Let the game police itself.

I remember when Jung Ho went down. Greg was furious. I didn’t hear his call yesterday on the play at home, but I would be surprised if he thought the slide was a good play.

Steve Blass was ambivalent yesterday and Joe Block lit into Him. I can’t imagine Greg being ambivalent but based on his comments tonight, I’m surprised.

Lester with another hit. 4-3 Bucs.

Glasnow coming in, in a high leverage situation.

The next step....

I believe Brown was saying that the recent rules were clearly violated in the instances of Kang and Diaz. But his preference is that these new rules had never been enacted. I don't see that as a contradiction. He doesn't like the rules but as long as the rules are in place, he doesn't want to see the Pirates disadvantaged by not enforcing them.

Okay, that makes sense. Thanks.
