[soccer10k]

What's going on with Zach Day? A meeting from the catcher and the pitching coach already.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Murton grounded out to second, 4-3, Pierre to third

[Flames24Rulz]

Murton grounds out, Pierre to 3rd.

[Rob]

Pierre has a what, 13:1 SB:CS ratio now?

 

At least that much is going right. It's a shame he's not on base more if he's finally learned the art of basestealing...

[Flames24Rulz]

ugh Walker.
