Pirates give up 8 more runs in 1 game! I knew this team was heading down to last place! ugh!

they're not finishing behind the Reds.

Pirates need to get some good starting pitching since our pen has been rather suspect.

Silly, Your pen wasn't suspect enough tonight. Congratulations on the win.

I still want Hurdle fired!!!!

I still want Hurdle fired!!!!

Silly, I congratulated you too early last night. I congratulated you when the Pirates were leading 8-5 in the 8th inning and I went to bed but it sure was nice to wake up this morning and read about those 5 runs the Cardinals scored in the bottom of the 9th inning.

I need to remember what Yogi said . . . . . It ain't over til it's over.

Silly, Since the game is officially over tonight I can congratulate you, your Pirates, and Tallion for pitching a great game against my redbirds.

When he said he had "Candy in his van", he meant Candy Maldonado.

there was no way Hurdle should have had his outfield playing a no doubles defense against a kid that was called up from AAA!!! UGH!!!

Kolten Wong....good for him, he even said in the on field interview that he wasn't playing worth a damn and everyone knows it....he barrelled that pitch up perfectly. Also, Gomber's first three pro innings were scoreless.

Pirates get both sad and good news today. For the sad former pitcher Bruce Kison who pitched in the first night game in world series history has passed. Kison know as bulldog, won 2 rings with the Bucs.

Now the good Pirate rookie Auston Meadows wins rookie of the month for the month of May!

Hey Buddy, All I can say is Bud Norris blew a save but got the win thanks to Wong and I'll take it!

Gomber was indeed impressive today and we need more performances like that from our entire bullpen.

Silly, I remember Bruce Kison well and I'm sorry to hear that.

What Polanco did the Cards get rid of years ago that is now on the Pirates????

Do you like Wong now...PleaseHelp2017?

 

[Markwassillylaugher]

the local Fox network was supposed to show the Cubs game but instead they stuck with womens golf!!!
I had plenty of golf today at Jack tournament!

 

[tomcat1]

What a great game you pitched today Mr. Wacha!

I just read in todays paper that the Pirates are paying Rodriguez $5.6 Million for a .173 hitter this season.
My question is why are they paying him so much and why is he playing so much?
ATTN: Hurdle play your best players and if the others on the bench don't like it then too bad!

Stop bitching, STL has Carpenter, Fowler, and Wong...altho Carpenter is starting to hit a bit.

I hope we will be seeing a healthy Martinez starting against the Marlins Tuesday night!

I am not the only one complaining! Fans and sports commentators in the region are all asking the same questions.
Hurdle is managing this team like it is a little league team. You play to win the game!
