Imperative to win this series, get back on track.

Now until July 4 there is a good mix of beatable opponents with a Cards series in there. Need to make some headway here.

SWEEP!!!

Is Josh Hader available this series?

Braun is hitting the ball well lately... just seems like bad luck. Hes going to go on a tear pretty soon.

His luck has not been good this season. He needs to hit the ball over the wall, I guess. They cannot catch it, then.

Chacin is going to make one mistake here and it'll be enough.

Hader looking shaky his last couple outings.

Kratz ... great job catching tonight!

Offense is dreadful through 8 with only one hit. It's not over, yet, though ... the meat of the order is due up in the 9th!!! Go Brewers!

Counsell sleeping at the switch, again! Good grief! Pinch-hit Aguilar for Thames!

That was some pathetic baseball.

Then use Domingo Santana! Thames had no chance against that lefty. Thames is not very good against very-average lefties, let alone a very solid lefty closer! Counsell has to work with the law of averages in these instances! No excuses!

You guys have to stop quoting this guy. I blocked him for a reason

That's poetic justice for you.

Half-hour to game-time ---- Let's make the Pirates the Irates! Let's make them irate by our complete domination of them tonight. Let the offense arise! Let's see the Pirates demise!
