Nick that was ball 4 why swing at that 3-1 count?

[Ori-Al]

Slung at ball four. Can't swing at a 3-1 pitch like that.

[terps19]

Damnit Nick that was ball 4

[WEAVERMAN]

Let's go offense.

What's he hitting now?

Little kids at an elementary school.

Beating them up, and stealing their lunch money.

So they are now shifting on Flaherty and even he refuses to bunt it down the line for a guaranteed hit? He is not good enough to not take that and instead strikes out looking. I just don't get it. It's bad baseball to let them shift and not take advantage of it.

Thorne: Minnesota Fats groundball.

It was a good pitch 3-1 slider he was looking fastball.

It isn't a guaranteed hit if you are not a good bunter.

Isn't it funny how good we all felt after the Pirates sweep followed by the nice Ubaldo outing?

Now it's like...

MANNY SUCKS

JONES SUCKS

WIETERS IS HAVING TOMMY JOHN

Hang on for the ride!

Don't forget about firing the hitting coach.

Come on, man.

Not too long ago, we were on pace to lose this game by a score of 18-0.

Now we're right back in it, only down by one run, and we have a shot to pull out a win in a game that seemed like it was seemingly insurmountable.

Chin up.

I see the Reactionary Ryan Flaherty Haters are out in full force tonight.

Ryan sees 3 more pitches than his replacement usually sees, and registers an out on a good pitch. 0-1. He's terrible. What a scrub. Bring on Buck Britton and Steve Lombardozzi and 2-15 Jonathan Schoop already, Ryan is a bastard and a knee...--erm, sorry, slip of the tongue--jerk besides.
