Man, Endy put a spark in that ball, but goes for an out anyhow

[Surgnbuck]

lead off single, you blink, and the Pirates are heading back out to the field.

That Reynolds single is wasted. Still 3-0 Bucs after two and a half.

Yeah, just four pitches to retire three guys.

Connor Joe showing some leather!

Wow, another pair of strikeouts by Jackson. Bucs 3 KC 0 after three.

[Wildwoodcoach]

Jackson- great pick up by Cherington

[Surgnbuck]

Is it me, or does Young pretty much say every Pirate handles the bat well, or has a good eye, or a great approach, or a tough out? Last night he was talking about what a tough out Palacios is, as he's striking out.

[Surgnbuck]

Ever notice any player that's in a major slump, no matter the team, the announcers always say "no one cares more, no one works harder, he's here early and taking extra practice" blah blah blah.

For once I'd love to hear, "he's been in a major slump, but today I saw him in a lounge chair drinking a mimosa saying, 'I'm good'"

82 RBI for a guy playing for the Royals....that's pretty special
