It's tough when dinkers like that fall. Of course the leadoff walk didn't help things.

Theriot flied out to right field

[Fred Hornkohl]

Ramirez grounded to third base , safe at first on a fielding error, E5, Pierre to second

[Jim Ignatowski]

Washington's Ortiz has not pitched past 7 innings, however he will today since there is something the Deadbird hitters have yet to do in 7 innings.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Pierre stole third base

[CuseCubFan69]

Pierre stole third base

 

That will add another 100K to his contract.
