OnlyBucs

Joined in progress. going to the top of the 7th tied 3-3. Sorry, I work nights, had to get my beauty sleep.



Speaking of beauty, Reynolds goes 2-2, Gamel and Cruz both homer. Keller goes 1.2 innings giving up 2 hits, one K, no walks 22 pitches and 15 for strikes. Bednar and Underwood Jr. go one scoreless inning each.



The not so beauty, the other Stratton, Hunter, gives up 2 HR's.

Hayes 3B, Reynolds CF, Gamel RF, Tsutsugo 1B, Vogelbach DH, Alford LF, Cruz SS, R. Castro 2B, M. Perez C was your starting lineup, M. Keller was the starting pitcher.

Tucupita Marcano hits on opposite field HR to give the Bucs a 4-3 lead.



So far first two games, Pirates showing some power.

Pirates shortstops have hit 3 HR's and a triple in these 2 games. Keller had to exit in his second inning as a precaution after getting hit by a line drive in his left leg, but he looked like he was smiling walking off.

Lot of strikeouts today. I think Brown needs to quit saying, "here's another one of these prospects we keep talking about, it makes it so exciting" and then they strike out.



But there does seem to be a different enthusiasm this year about the team. Can't wait to see how this season unfolds.

Endy Rodriguez 2 run HR!!!!!!

MVP in Florida A ball last year really showing his stuff so far in camp

Henry Davis 0-2 today, entered as a PH, stayed as the DH, as M. Perez and Ritchie have been handling the catching duties

Jack Suwinski had a 12 pitch walk right before the HR.



Smith-Njigba a K and a BB today, along with a stolen base

Love seeing walks turn into doubles
