Gausman’s having a terrific year. Our boys will probably kick his fanny tonight.

Crowe last pitched July17 against the Mets, drawing a no decision in the Pirates 9-7 victory, going 5.1 innings and allowing 4 earned runs. He faced the Giants in Pittsburgh on May 13, going 5 innings and surrendering all 3 runs and was tagged with the loss in the Pirates 3-1 defeat.



Gausman last pitched July 19 against the Dodgers, getting a no decision in San Francisco's 7-2 victory as he totaled 80 pitches in only 3 innings, giving up both runs. He faced the Pirates May 14 at PNC Park, getting a no decision after going 8 innings, allowing one run, and striking out 12 in the Pirates 3-2, 11 inning victory.

Just a slight difference in the batteries tonight, I'd say.

I'll dust off this little ditty from the old days, because I know that you're in a nostalgic mood tonight:



One's cream. The other's a little less than cream. I'm being nice.

Nostalgic mood? I think I saw them play the Syria Mosque once.



The only mood I'm in tonight is pure relaxation after making a nice dinner for me and Mister Man. I was up late last night due to snowball procrastination (I put off one thing, which made another thing late, which made another thing late, etc.) sewing patches on a uniform after being up from early in the AM and all through the day Friday. Then up and attem early today because we had a karate tournament an hour away. Long day, I stayed to watch my friends fight in the over 50 black belt division. Mister Man was crashed. He had three pretty tumultuous fights today. After 5 when we finally got home, made the aforementioned dinner.



I......am........bushed.



And, I always said you were a nice guy. Who knows? Maybe Perez and Crowe will be nice tonight.

Polanco batting clean up. What else needs to be said?

Last ditch attempt to attract a trade partner. "Hey, look, Polanco is our cleanup hitter! And he's hitting a robust .204.
