bases loaded, only manage one run on a wild pitch. Cruz popped out, Triolo flied out.

When are they going to give some of the AAA guys a shot? They can't do any worse.

Said on broadcast something that comes as no surprise to us, Pirates are tied with the Dodgers for most men left on base with 240.

Loved the criticism Brown and Young had for Suwinski, pointing out the exact issue the Pirates are having, watching balls right over the plate go for strikes, then striking out on a pitchers pitch

I thought I would watch the game in bed but with Kevin Young announcing, I’m sure to fall asleep.

keep the TV on, Brown promised Young would sing a song if the Pirates win, he'll sing you a lullaby!

Nice of Tellez to swing at a 3-2 pitch literally over his head

It’s a shame to see all of this good starting pitching go to waste.
The only guy who has been consistent this year has been Conner Joe. Reynolds has been mostly consistent but has had some horrible at bats at crucial times.
They have to beat this A’s team. Losing the series is unacceptable.
Although IIRC we got swept by the A’s last year at PNC

A's get a single, a double, and two sac flies to go up 3-1.

Imagine that, scoring guys in scoring position
