You would be correct. But, did you ever think maybe rather than my birth year, maybe I was honoring the great Cards team of 82? 2 birds, one stone, I guess.
Darn, flyout. Still, peradventure the offense is about to open up and score a few more runs the last couple innings and tomorrow?
What in the world is going on with this fire alarm?
It’d probably help Austin to have the lights and sirens. Haha
CB1982: Well I did actually….just to counter Pugs, and at the risk of a virtual cyber slap, I started to say you might be 76, guessing you were maybe 40 when the Porter and gang won the WS, but I wasn’t quick enough. Glad you’re 35 though!
Ok, Scooter gave that one a ride but hopefully Austin can settle down and get back into the groove the rest of this inning.
Well, if the no-no had to go, I guess Votto was the most likely. Still pretty cool to have back to back rookies with 6+ no-hit innings back to back.
Er, hold that. Tied up.
I have to admit that there’s something about Suarez that annoys me. Maybe that he’s having such a good season after the most memorable thing he’s done against the Cards is to be picked off by Yadi on the bonehead play at third last year.
Damn.Just had the feeling Saurez would nail one.Gomber has been darn good until then.Still a very good start by Gomber.
The Pirates are a low talent team with a worse manager than Matheny who are playing on guts and heart right now. Not saying they can’t continue but they’ll still finish well under .500 when all is said and done. IMO.
I would have pulled Gomber after the Votto hit, but that’s just me. No hitter into the 7th then a clean single, pull the guy even if you have an iffy bullpen.
Time for our offense to put up a tally or two. Let’s se if they’re really “professional hitters” like the on field management likes to say.
Pham has looked a bit overmatched at the plate tonight. He’s missed a couple good pitches and swung at a few iffy ones. He did make a nice play on the ball in LCF in the 6th but he needs to keep hitting the ball to add value.
Nobody on the team has looked like Ted Simmons or Albert out there last few games after the explosion versus Cubbies.
I hope Pham isn’t slipping back to whatever form was causing him problems earlier. He obviously needs to stay in contact with his hitting guru.
