Alright! Keller pitches a perfect first inning, after the three run HR).

It could be worse. If the Pirates could figure out a way to trail 4-0 after 3 batters, they would.

And they have.

SD has a good lineup. Perez executed his pitches. Keller didn't execute his. Ke needed to have a better AB in the first. The Pirates can't catch a break.

Bucs just need to get thru the 5-9 spots in the order to turn the lineup over and maybe get a hit from IDF, Reynolds or Bart.

Keller's going to pitch seven innings, giving up just those three runs, and the Bucs are going to come home a winner. But it doesn't look like De La Cruz is going to help as he continues his terribly consistent work.

I'm done for the day. I can't take this team.

Even the White Sox Hitless Wonders team had only one guy with a worse batting average than the bottom five in the Pirates line-up today. DLC is hitting just .163 since he joined the Pirates, while the other four have only Hayes hitting higher than the worst that the Sox had to offer in 1906.

So I wake up to check the score. It's like, I can't be awake, this isn't for real is it? Keller wouldn't let us down like this would he?

Guys that swing bats probably thinking they're off the hook today, the money man is going to get all the blame. Flail away fellas, flail away.

Shelton has to be fired before they return home doesn't he? There has to be some sort of roster move right? Something that shows there's accountability demanded, something to try and shake up the team right?

This can't just keep going on and on and on.

Skenes is thisclose to be shut down for the rest of the season.

Well, I was mistaken. They should play all these west coast games at night. It's much easier to read about in the morning than to actually watch it take place right in front of you.
