Official Game Thread - 8/30 - Bucs @ Guardians

[Surgnbuck]

Pop up to Gonzo, German amazingly posts a zero.

He's the new star of the bullpen now, his ERA in the last three games is under 20

[Surgnbuck]

Bucs PH for Tellez and McKinney, but go in order.

[Surgnbuck]

One out single, stolen base. Hedges up, presumably can't bunt him in from second, but you never know

[Ecbucs]

does the team have the goal of having the worst bullpen by end of season? Asking for a friend.

I thought the bullpen might have trouble if it was overworked but they have all just lost any consistency (at least of the good kind).

[Surgnbuck]

German strikes out Hedges to end the inning....I missed the strikeout before Hedges.

Two scoreless from German. Nice rebound. We have to find something positive.

Brown has already raised the white flag if the Pirates don't score in the 8th, because of Clase.

He hasn't given credit to the bullpen yet, they still have to pitch the bottom of the eighth, they may not need Clase by then

[Surgnbuck]

for those who needed reminded, German gave up 8 runs on 6 hits and 4 walks his last outing

[Surgnbuck]

Grandal walks.....have to PR for him right here.
If they don't, I'll slap the first one of you says Kelly should be a manager

[Surgnbuck]

Taylor into PR. Kelly avoids a Surg Slap

[Surgnbuck]

Triolo pops out to RF.

Taylor has to go here, he needs to get a stolen base

[Surgnbuck]

One throw over, go on this pitch he isn't coming over twice in a row
