Man you are fast.

 

Yeah..... my wife is always complaining about that. :wink:

[stitchface]

I think that CS might have just cost us a run. Bad jump. :(

 

how? The ball was in front of the LF - no way Pagan would have scored on that. if he had been successful stealing, he would have scored.

[Jon]

Despite Pagan's speed, he's only been a good base stealer in 2004. Other than that, he's been pretty bad. Just 27 for 42 (64%) last year at AAA.

leadoff walk to Craig Wilson.

[Omar]

and Craig Wilson walks.

I think there has to be a statute of limitations for using "rebuilding process" on a team like the Pirates.

[Flames24Rulz]

"Safe on 1st on a close play."

 

too bad we couldn't see that close play.

[Outshined_One]

Wild throw. Yikes.

[Andy]

Barrett = worst defensive catcher ever!

 

 

:wink:

[Omar]

::sigh:: Great throw by Barrett.

[Flames24Rulz]

stolen base by Craig Wilson, Barrett's throw into CF but Wilson can't advance to 3rd.

[Butterscup1679666578]

jesus Barrett.

[Flames24Rulz]

Williams K's Randa.

[ToupeeOnFire]

Commence kvetching about Barrett's defense...

[Omar]

Randa strikes out. 1 down.

stolen base by Craig Wilson, Barrett's throw into CF but Wilson can't advance to 3rd.

 

 

pierre backed up the play. good hustle.

[Outshined_One]

That was more on Williams than Barrett. Wilson had the base stolen because Williams was so freaking slow to the plate, not because of a bad throw.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Brenly was spot on there about how hard that throw is. At least it didn't cost us.

[stitchface]

Commence kvetching about Barrett's defense...

 

he had no chance.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

That was more on Williams than Barrett. Wilson had the base stolen because Williams was so freaking slow to the plate, not because of a bad throw.

 

And that the pitch was a hanging breaking ball up and in.

[Omar]

Guy on 3rd, and 2 down. C'mon WILLIAMS!!

[Flames24Rulz]

2 outs, Wilson advances to 3rd.
