I get that. No way this team or the young pitching can keep this up. They will get burned. Hit a wall. But, it was obvious to anyone watching that Milo had hit the wall right now. He couldn’t make a pitch to get out of the inning. [Reply]
And after going ahead by two in the top of the 15th, the Buttpirates lose to Milwaukee, who plated three in the bottom of the 15th.
I don't really know much about Clay Holmes, but if tonight's outing was typical of his pitching prowess, he should be selling women's shoes. :-) [Reply]

They play like this, doesn't matter who we play, we will win. And in the current state of play, its a fun brand of baseball.
We have those last 3 games against the Cubs in our pocket. We get in front of Milwaukee. Win that first game and............the pressure is on them. Ya never know.
But, I'm also happy to be looking at the scores too. We are relevant again.:-) [Reply]
The end of that Brewers game last night was just awful. Milwaukee's bench was so depleted at that point that they had to have a relief pitcher bat with two outs. All Holmes had to do was strike out a guy who never bats. And he walked him. :-) [Reply]
