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

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.

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.
