Pirates and Tigers

[sychmd]

martin had an XBH, but only counts as a single.
now our league leading streak of 47 games with an XBH gets snapped tonite.

I will take the win!...LOL

Let's start another 47 game streak!

 

[awaz]

At least the MLB network had the live look in and showed it real time!
And they did talk about the rotation but yeah I have no clue what it takes for them to get coverage? Maybe move to Boston or New York?

So pumpe when they put the game on. They gave the rotation a lot of love too and interviewed Martin afterwards.

Gotta think the #2 playing the #3 in all of baseball will get some coverage this weekend.

Yeah it was great and I just think if that hit would have went a few feet further out of the stadium as a walk off HR. The place would have went crazy.

You would think about the coverage this weekend and then after that they have the Braves so there are some pretty good NL matchups that truly should get some real coverage.

I dunno I would think the second best record in baseball would be enough to get mentioned on a regular basis?

really didn't need any more, if that fan could've just made a play!

Still no fucking respect from the media. MLB.com and ESPN have no stories on their sites about the Pirates.


Ok, I found one way down ESPN's list about Martin's 11th inning HR.

I am pleased that regressions and statistics and math in general seem to indicate that the Pirates will break the streak this year and make the playoffs, but I will keep my optimism cautious at least for the time being.

The MLB network games tonight:

Red Sox vs Yankees --- gee shocker....
But the alternate:
Tigers vs Orioles

I guess the last four days when they played the second best team in baseball it wasn't good enough?

Not even looking at ESPN because they have college softball.
