Swanson, the lastest in a long line of Pirates killers, homers to open the third. 1-0 Cubs.

Just a way to distract the viewers from the mess that’s taking place on the field.

Bucs get a single and a gift two base error, but of course, can't capitalize.

Then, in the bottom half, Swanson hits a lead off HR.

The Pirates are back to their early season form now. Hoping to win games 1-0, 2-1.

I feel another wasted start coming on. And I'm certain Jones won't be allowed to go more than 5

The Cubs sponsor patch is the size of a garbage can lid

Happ's only 11-40 this season against us? I swear he's on base every time

That's gonna give Nutting the idea for a dumpster company sponsor patch next year.

He’s murdered Pirates pitching for years. I thought maybe he was 41-40 against us.

Or the team will look like a race car driver. You can’t even see what those guys are wearing for the patches.
