  • Pirates Playback Week 1: 4/8/12

    January 7, 2013 Respond

    It’s twenty-five degrees outside.  There’s snow on the ground.  The sky is dark by 6pm. But every Monday from now until March 11, for a few hours, Pirates fans are able to escape this dismal winter and remember the joys of the summer and a Pirates season that had us all hoping until the very…

  • Pittsburgh Pirates vs. Los Angeles Dodgers – Game 118

    August 16, 2012 Respond

    It’s almost as if this team is going from lovable overachievers, to bumbling, lazy (in some cases), overmatched, losers in record time. 3-7 in their last ten, still 11 games over .500, but if they don’t right the ship soon that too will vanish. First Pitch:  4:05 PM EST Where To Watch:  Root Sports, MLB.TV,…

  • Pittsburgh Pirates vs. Los Angeles Dodgers – Game 117

    Positive Recap From Mellie. You will get not get a positive outlook from me. I know most people disagree with my assessment, even on this blog, but this probably started at the All Star Break, and the Pirates have failed to clear hurdles, and in some cases Hurdle’s. ASB was one.  They couldn’t carry the…

  • Pirates lose to Dodgers, still “all in”

    August 14, 2012 Respond

    Tonight’s ballgame wasn’t a fun one.  That could be the understatement of the season, as the Pirates lost the 2nd game of the Dodgers series by a score of 11 to 0.  Yes, 11. Kevin Correia started off strong, retiring the first 6 batters he faced.  For a pitcher who usually struggles early and then…

    Gotta get em this time. First Pitch:  7:05 PM EST Where To Watch:  Root Sports, MLB.TV, KCAL    Chad Billingsley, RHP (28) Chad Billingsley might honestly be one of the most underrated pitchers in the league. He really gets no love despite being a consistent producer and innings eater. Since coming out of the bullpen…

    Despite a little Keystone Kops action The Pirates spanked the Padres.  They did EXACTLY what they needed to do to try and right the ship.  Yesterday’s win was exactly the type of win they needed to boost their confidence. Recap! The offense hasn’t sucked honestly, it’s the pitching that killed this series.  If the offense…

  • Brad Lincoln Traded, Yinzer Meltdown Ensues

    July 31, 2012 2

    Where to begin?  If you’ve been on the internet at all, especially twitter, you know that 93.7 The “Fan” and specifically Paul Alexander have been ground zero for idiocy and moronic baseball talk.  This centers around the trade that sent RHP Brad Lincoln to the Toronto Blue Jays for left handed outfielder Travis Snider. Nevermind…

  • AJ Burnett’s 8th straight win gives Pirates series split

    June 28, 2012 Respond

    The 5 first-inning runs and AJ Burnett’s quality start were just enough to give the Pirates a 5-4 win this afternoon in Philadelphia.  The Pirates were able to split the series with the Phillies, giving them a win in the season series. Drew Sutton led off the game with a single, and Neil Walker followed…
