Not a great deal. Not a great deal at all.
When the Pirates and Cubs played at Williamsport earlier this summer, one of the Little League kids noticed Archer and said "Hey your the guy that gives up all the home runs!" [Reply]
Went to the game last night- tough loss. Very impressive pitching and defense, but offense just couldn't get those runs in when it counted. Going again tonight- great seats. 12th row behind home plate for $29. Thanks Rockies fans. [Reply]

Yeah, wasnt much of a game for offense but great seats for that money. :-) [Reply]
I can’t believe this shit. Bases loaded 1 out and nothing. 6th inning and 1 run in Denver? Against one of the worst pitching staffs in baseball. [Reply]
Another September fade incoming? Dicking around and getting swept in Colorado in Sept is exactly the kind of thing that will cost you the division. [Reply]

2 runs in 17 innings in Colorado may be some kind of record. [Reply]
