Bob almost makes it sound as if LaRoche did more on that play than Desmond.

Yeah. Just posted about this. LaRoche's play was almost routine.

Now, Lannan at the plate is REALLY depressing.

SF used to jock Lannan big time. Now that Lannan turned 26 he's singing a different tune.   :lmao:

I've always been a fan of Lannan, but his days on this club are numbered.  Too many talented pitchers coming up through the minors.  With the type of money that Lannan would get in arbitration next year, it is likely he gets DFA'ed.

Did they ever announce how many dollar tickets there were?  They should have had 10,000 of them.

They probably picked very few seats to sell for a buck.

It shouldn't...it was announced before the game that there were only select stands that were selling $1 dogs/popcorn/etc

WRONG...this was promoted EXACTLY how you would set up a GOTCHA ripoff.  They put big $1 Monday graphics on TV over and over, to get people to attend.  All they said was that "certain restrictions apply", without telling you what those restrictions would be.  Only one time did I hear Bob Carpenter say that the $1 parking was only at one lot.  

If hot dogs are NOT $1 in the whole stadium, then this approaches false advertising, a completely dishonest ripoff. What was the Lerner's intention? Instead of using this as an opportunity to build a fan base, this kind of dishonesty is how to alienate fans, who vow never to return.

Lannan has a 2 WHIP.

He is not pitching well, Bob.

Well, 2's not 3.  So that's something.

Anyone happen to find a picture of Bernadina's catch the other night?

freaking awful, Lannan is getting behind EVERY hitter.

Walking Brandon Wood = AAAA.

This isn't good enough.

He just four pitch walked one of the worst hitters of all time.

So the $1 food is not available throughout the ball park?  Regular prices everywhere else, for the exact same hot dogs, peanuts, etc?

Probably selling the expired hot dogs slated for the trash bin for $1.

The Pirates are stupid.

Otherwise, this would be a blowout.

Horrid, Lannan tossing BP.

Roger saves him a runner at third. :clap: Nice play by Hairston too.

Holy crap. Put in Broderick ... uh who can give us innings out of the pen? Coffey unavailable, Kimball has pitched 2 days in a row.

I guess we are in store for another long Doug Slaten appearance :hang: Or HRod :hang:

Bernadina's throw from CF results in a putout at 3B...

So without Gaudin or Broderick, they don't have a long man in the pen anymore.  They are going to have to let Lannan go 6 unless they want to kill the pen.
