I might be pushing my luck, but I'm calling another ARAMBOMB here.

 

At least he got a hit.

Back to back 13s on the Pirates. Work will be fun tomorrow.

Good inning

[CyHawk_Cub]

O.K. Who the hell kidnapped my Cubs & replaced them w/ a competent-looking major league ball club? I demand answers!!

[ToupeeOnFire]

One more run and they tie Arizona for the major league lead, although Arizona's game just started.

[bcl412]

If we are patient and hit like this against the Mets than I am going to start to feel all giddy inside.

The Bud Light Hot Girl Cam was back on form today too. There is nothing wrong with today's game at all.
