Without that Fluke HR by Bautista this game would be tied.  :?
I guess it wasn't a fluke!

Your move sure payed off Manny.  Potentially cost us 2 runs.  Career game for that freaking loser Bautista.

O'Connor is serving BP.  He can't throw a curve ball for a strike so the Pirate hitters are just sitting on his 84 MPH fastball.

Bautista is a 15+ homer guy. Two is too much, though.

I never liked him, but he whoops in the minors for some reason.

Starting lefties consecutively always bites us in the ass. It doesn't help when you bring in a reliever who is lefty too.  We have to find a way to separate the lefties better.  It makes it too easy on the opposition.

Another lefty. 4 LHPs have pitched in this game.

Let's hope he has a Guzman-esque turnaround after his previous horrors...

Lopez has the read on this guy. He needs to steal.

horrible AB.  Guzman is almost as inconsistent as Milledge.

Our #3 and #4 hitters retire on 1 pitch a piece.  That's inexcusable.  I'm close to turning this embarrassment off.

Why is Zimm still hitting 3rd?  Easily the worst 3rd hitter in the majors.

Zimmerman never looked that frustrated last year. He's carrying all of that over to his next at-bats. This is the first time I've seen him act his age out there.

Wow, O'Connor's going for three!
