[Soul]

Someone add Murton to the freaking email list, Christ.

[BigSlick]

bleh at least we got the lead

[Butterscup1679666578]

Damn Murt.

 

Would've been nice to get another there. Oh well.

[erik316wttn]

Can we convince all of our opponents to wear Pirates uniforms this year?

[Andy]

Pirates announcer: Those are the kinda out you like, the unproductive ones.

 

Should the Pirates really be picky about outs?

The pirates are by no stretch of the imagination good...but am I the only one that sees them crawling out of the cellar this year and maybe even reaching lower mediocrity?

I had them 4th in the Central this year, but I'm thinking they might not be that good.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Nady grounded out to second, 4-3

[Post Count Padder]

1 down

[Fred Hornkohl]

Doumit grounded out to the pitcher, 1-3

[erik316wttn]

NICE play by Demp. 2 out

[Andy]

Not only Cy Dempster but Gold Glove Dempster. Nice play.

[Post Count Padder]

Nice snag by Dempster

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Nice play by Captain America!

[Butterscup1679666578]

Nice play Demp!

[erik316wttn]

Dempster looks good again.

 

DeRo-Soto-Cedeno coming up.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

A strong second inning by Dempster. Could we actually be lucky enough to get a good full season of good Dempster?

[illiniguy]

We should trade Dempster after this hot start. Maybe Houston would be willing to unload Oswalt? In all seriousness, I cannot believe how well Ryan has been pitching.

[Outshined_One]

Dempster looks good again.

 

I don't know how he's doing it, but again, I'm just going to go with it.

[erik316wttn]

DeRo singles

[Fred Hornkohl]

DeRosa singled to left field

[Outshined_One]

DeRo is hot hot hot.
