Prince is going nuts right now shouting about a bit of "9th Inning Lightning" and how that has been a Buccos trademark in those years.



Unfortunately it looks like Rivero comes in for the 8th and that will mean Tony "Pariah of the Bullpen" Watson with pitch the 9th.  Or Clint might just surprise us with Antonio "Gilipollas" Bastardo to blow the game for Tallion and the Buccos.
If Murtaugh just saw Rivero's strong 8th on 12 pitches, he'd bring him back for the 9th.


Possum's nightmare goes back in the box. Thankfully.

Let me modify my previous post:

Taillon AND Frazier are STUDS!!!

LeBlanc warming.

Nice sweep after a very demoralizing loss to the Sox.

Glad we played that one.



Raise it.



Happy Sweepster.

Clint pulls a sort of Danny Murtaugh move by bringing in Wade "Frenchie" LeBlanc to set down the Cubbies in the 9th.



By the way VaPirate not bringing back Rivero for the 9th inning is just one example of why Hurdle couldn't were Murtaugh's jock!

Frazier is becoming vital to this offense. (Too bad his defense isn't good.) He has now started 8 of 12 games so Hurdle is trying to get him in the lineup as much as he can.

As long as he hits, he will have a spot.

Rivero looks like the 9th wouldn't phase him. But you're right - no Way Clint moves Watson before Watson blows several pretty much in a row.

Exactly if it hadn't been for Frazier Hurdle would have probably blown this game by bringing in Watson with his 93 mph fastball to mow down the cubs and we would have lost 4 to 3.  Just cannot understand this type of managing, just awful.  But hey Pirates sweep in spite of Hurdle and I'm happy, happy, happy, Go Bucs.
