8/10 Game Thread - Vogelsong v Padres

Yea this is starting to get quite disturbing that Jackson has a no hitter through 5 innings in a game the Pirates really need to win. How many opportunities are the Pirates going to screw up when all these teams they are chasing all continue to keep losing. God this team is so frustrating.

Still no hits. Only three hits by the Padres.

Still have time. Let's go.

Bullpen gives up its 1st of what will surely be several runs.

3-0

Unbelievable.

Terrible decision by Hurdle to pitch to the 8th hitter...he's gotta get canned at the end of the year.

The Padres are fielding a AAA line up.

very discouraging performance tonight.

Everytime this team gets a little bit of life they play a crap game like this tonight where they just look absolutely horrible.

This team is NOT capable of stringing together 3 good games in a row.

The Phillies series should have been a sweep.

The Reds series should have been a sweep.

The Padres series should be a sweep.

These losses add up fast and just kill a team in the standings.

If the Pirates had just beaten the Reds on Sunday with Cole, and won tonight against EDWIN JACKSON, they would be 0.5 games out with a chance to tie tomorrow.

It's not going to be pretty in LA and SF ... followed by Miami, Houston, at MIL and at the Cubs.

This was the Pirates' chance to make up ground during this 18-game stretch vs. garbage. After tonight we'll be an inexcusable 8-9 vs. the NL dregs. What a blown opportunity.

What happened to Cervelli this time? I think I dozed off watching this hit fest.

Like I said, Hurdle will be updating his resume in about 8 weeks...
