The Indianapolis Pirates vs the SD Padres! The only change is Mason Martin for the Bambino.

Heineman with his first Bucs hit, one out single. Rally rally rally

not sure why you have Castro at the top of the order when Castillo I think would be a better choice. I know Shelton is trying to even out all the left handed hitters, just odd you have two of the three switch hitters hitting 1 and 3.

Infield single, wild pitch to second, ground out to first, pop bunt to the catcher, looks like Contreras going to get out of it, hangs a change up Profar sends it to the seats 2-0 Padres.

Now, for a team that has won absolutely nothing in it's entire history, they do more shenanigans after home runs than probably most teams. I know the Blue Jays and Red Sox do some things too. I know it's the way of MLB, but seeing all the stuff going on, you'd have thought they won the World Series just now.

Man I really hope we can come back and make them look stupid. I don't care if teams celebrate, some just take it too far.

Profar needs to get one high and tight next time.

Contreras did not look happy on the bench. Wondering if it was about being told he was done for the day. If it was the HR, he needs to not brood on it, he still pitched a pretty good game today. He's certainly looking like the real deal.

Wow, that's not a great stat for a reliever. Underwood Jr. with a leadoff walk, that's 41 straight appearances he's allowed at least one runner.

Contreras pulled after 76 pitches. It's the Pirate way.
