Pittsburgh Pirates vs. San Diego Padres – Game 153

Pittsburgh Pirates vs. Chicago Cubs – Game 157

I feel like Chubbs trying to teach Happy Gilmore how to putt. “This time, don’t even look at the hole, just aim for a spot, six inches in front of the ball” That’s all I want the Pirates to do against...

Pittsburgh Pirates vs. Chicago Cubs – Game 8

Shaky, shaky Charlie Morton.  Pirates spot their starter a lead and he gives back every. single. run.  We were due for a bad start, thankfully the offense responded. I guess I’d be remiss to not...

Pittsburgh Pirates vs. Milwaukee Brewers – Game 17

J-hay.   Ya know what prevents homeruns?  Bunting.  Usually Josh Harrison at the plate does too, but ya never know.  Josh Harrison is a horrid bunter anyway.  I’d never let that guy bunt. It only took...

Game 17: Pirates vs. Brewers Recap
