Another Heartbreaker

First a 19 inning game that ends in what appears to be a missed call by the home plate umpire.
Today another extra inning game with the Braves that did not go in the Pirates favor. The players must be very frustrated at this point. One can only hope they let it go tomorrow.
One thing I have always like about the Angels manager is that he tells the players to take things one game at a time, not to think back on what could have been but focus on today, right now. I hope that Mr. Hurdle is of the same mind and tells the Buc players exactly that.
Move onward...keep chasing that division title...

Nineteen

It was a very, very long game. Nineteen innings of well played baseball on the part of both teams. Unfortunately the Braves beat the Pirates.
Even though they lost this game, it does show the fans and, hopefully, the front office that this Pirate team is working and working well.
They didn't give up, fighting the Braves over and over with great pitching and defense. This is the mentality you want a winning baseball team to have. Go out, play as hard as you can and hope you come out ahead!
After all those hours of baseball I sure am glad to know that tomorrow's game (today actually now) is not a day game. Both these teams need some rest!
