Woooooo!!! :D

What a bizarre game!

Cervelli with four hits and gets on with two outs to score the game winner.

Even though they won they still hurt themselves by burning up the bullpen again.

NH better bring up at least one pitcher tomorrow for the game.

I guess he didn't like me making fun of him lol.

Can't bunt the ball a few innings ago, hits a rocket off the wall to finish it. Go figure.

I just happen to be lurking.

Of course he'll want to rub some dirt in.



I'm really liking Cervelli. If there was a guy to maybe bring me back, he's it.

Yeah, here we thought that with Liriano pitching into the 8th the bullpen would get some much needed rest instead it turned out to be a marathon.

**** it... A win is a win. This will come back to haunt them if they don't clean things up. It's been like this all year.

Filet Mignon with the walk off! Hell has frozen over, pigs are flying and I seen Elvis walking down the street with Bigfoot and the Loch Ness monster on a leash.

how about pedro alvarez? his BA is at 255. who would predict hed have such a good second half, i guess the morse trade scared him into not wanting to lose his starting job.

Figures, I went to bed after the 14th because I didn't think we would ever score a run with a lineup featuring Florimon and Rodriguez.

It's his highest BA this late into the season since his rookie year.

I love seeing Kang's reaction. He took full responsibility of his mistake. I dig when players take ownership like that. Take it to heart and get back out there.

Caminero and Blanton both pitching several innings meant the tax on the pen wasn't actually that bad. Obviously those 2 won't be available tonight but Bastardo and Soria were not used, and Hughes only faced 2 batters.

It would be nice if Happ could go 7 strong tonight although that is asking a lot of him against a potent Diamondbacks offense. The good news is the pen will get some relief (no pun intended) when rosters expand at the start of September.

I met his friend who's over here with him and we talked a little bit (Doesn't speak a lot of english) of baseball, and he said the Pirates are really good. My response was, they need that big bat. They still do.

Nobody is consistent.

Heck, putting a guy who's hot batting cleanup would do.
