Game 1 of 4

Matt Duffy -- who just recently took over the iron man title/spot from Manny Machado (who's serving a suspension) -- is not starting due to achilles soreness from yesterday's game.

Who the fuck is RamiroPena?

Is it time for more Pierats assrape?

Pirates fans, does he trigger you like he does Royals fans?

Pirates got a pretty thick looking ball babe.

They've got two

Yeah just saw that second one, hot damn.

Go back to AAA Pena. Goddamnit, I don't even know who he is but fuck that guy and fuck Parker too.

If the Pierats can't' beat this lineup their season is *confirmed* over.

Robot umps when?

Fuck your robt umps. Baseball has human being umps.

You want to start a similar sport that uses robt umps, that's fine, but don't call it baseball.

Second ball girl > first

Ramiro who? Jesus have we got that desperate how the fuck are the Dodgers so far back

Ramiro Pena got the last 2 RBIs in the 10-1 win against MIL last June 15 (Cueto's 10th win).

This game is going really fast

Fuuuuu was gonna be epic

Damn Pagan almost robbed that man

oh fug

LOL yeah baby

Would braun make that play?

Anyone got Pagan webm or gif ready? Would have been fucking clutch.

No. He's got a lower jump. Might tip it but not even glove it.

If we lose this streak to Locke I'm just gonna gouge my eyes out

Hnnngg those ball babe qts

>Pirates going to the bullpen
C'mon Jints light 'em up

>yfw game ends 1-0

...

No, we've all moved on to hatred of Arrieta and the Cusb.

My cousin is one of the Pirates ball girls but I'm not going to say which one :^)

>Jeff Locke is two years older than Madison Bumgarner

Literally how.

Pirates retaliating for that next inning I can feel it

Pirates have lost like 10 of their last 11. You could bean Cutch in the nuts right now and they wouldn't retaliate in a one run game.

Will Pagan redeem himself with a big offensive play?

...

Think we could get cut ch for cheap at the deadline if the Rita's are further up shit creek so that we can finish our collection of washed up 30 something year old centerfielders

If anyone's at the game tell the guy yelling woo to shut the fuck up

Was that a let's go cubs chant?

LOL yeah baby

>just

Fug that outfield defense man

Craw dad was swinging for the fences on that one

Posey pulled a hammy there

>Giants drop the first game
>pagan drops the only run

GG pirates
the streak had to end somewhere

>mfw i was right

gg buccos

>raise it

Likewise
