Wainwright's previous start (6/17) was a disaster vs the Orioles:

1.2 IP, 7 H, 9 ER, 1 BB, 1 K, 3 HRs.

The Pirates aren't the only team with problems. Tonight the Orioles have tied a MLB record by giving up 5 or more runs in 20 consecutive games.

I can't. Believe it. Immediately a HR

Hudson and Minnow Tank on the verge of losing another game.

WOW! This is crazy!

He thought the first batter had hit a HR and didn't even turn around but Cutch caught it at the warning track. Next batter hits it out. That's our Hudson. ::)

The pirates give Hudson $11M and two years. The only team in MLB with a crippling contract $11m to a risky bull pen arm.

Amazing.

Yep. I couldn't even get my first post out before a ball went all the way to the wall. I'm sending my first post as the 2nd batter goes deep.

What a mess.

Nice catch by Polanco, but Brownie and the Rock are acting like he just made the play of the year. On a nightly basis, I'd expect 29 of 30 RFers to make that play every time. It's only a miracle because it was polanco.

DeJong has shown power but 25 k's, 1 walk in 68 at bats coming in to tonight's game. Martinez 100 at bats on year.

Maybe Pirates should try Hudson as a starter. He is too dangerous in the bullpen to put in a close game. Has given up 6 homers, way too many for his number of innings.
