Phillies-Pirates Game Thread.

I hope we can start a streak today. 2 in a row would be a nice change of pace!

 

[Retroram52]

Once again I am coming in late and the Phils are the same Phillies, different opponent, same result so far. The deficit is 4.

 

[Retroram52]

And this is only the second inning.

 

[Retroram52]

I missed the first inning but Hernandez got torched for three stolen bases. This time Hill got Polanco at second.

 

[Retroram52]

Now that play between Gwynn and Revere sums up this entire season. Dumbasses just don't have the playing knowledge and they ran into each other like a couple of Keystone cops. This is what happens when you have bafoons running the club that filters down into getting idiot players who then are put into a game with two center fielders, one in left field and neither of them have played long enough to understand those types of situations. This team is nearly hopeless.

 

[Retroram52]

I suppose people have shown up for the fireworks.

Pirates bullpen is garbage. This isn't out of reach at all.

 

[Retroram52]

Holy Cow, it is the third inning and that is the first hit of the day by Revere. These guys are finally awake, I think!

 

[Retroram52]

Yea SNL, but our hitting is equally or worse than your garbage bullpen so it may very well be out of reach for the Phils. We shall see.

 

[Retroram52]

Nice stolen base by Revere. All for naught as Jimmie strikes out and then pouts like a little bitch.

 

[Retroram52]

It is still the third inning and the pitch count for Hernandez is nearly 80. That is not a good sign.

Perfect description of the action, retro..

 

[Retroram52]

Thanks jvett. I saw that play and just shook my head.

 

[Retroram52]

Looks like we are working on another 17 scoreless innings streak. Swing and a miss Howard is doing a good job of this.

 

[Retroram52]

That idiot Gywnn is so bad, I don't know why he is even playing at this level. Polanco scores, 5-0.

 

[Retroram52]

That bullshit Utely tried to sell before the Atlanta series about how this team was improving in small increments has been completely obliterated with the series with Atlanta, Miami, and now this shit. This team just doesn't give a shit. These players don't have any sense of anything except to show up and get a check. Someone characterized these dudes as reminding them of a pick-up company picnic softball game before everyone chows down on the food and beer. I agree after watching this krap.

 

[Retroram52]

Wonders never cease. Utely with the RBI and we are on the board to stave off another 17 scoreless inning streak that may have been developing.

 

[Retroram52]

Howard still whiffing at ground balls. The announcer is right. Howard swings at pitcher's pitches instead of Howard's pitches.

 

[Retroram52]

Howard walks and bases are loaded. All we need is a HR and we are in this ballgame. Shazzamm!!

 

[SFNL]

No clue why they pulled Cole and went to our garbage pen. Oh well, at least this will be dramatic.
