Gotta seal the deal tomorrow.

Key to the win was Chapman's 7 pitch ninth inning. If he doesn't pitch the 10th, Katie bar the doors.

I'm not a Card hater like nearly everone else here, but this one was sweet.

I save my most toxic hatreds for the Cubs, Brewers, Reds, Mets and Yanks in that order.

My 1 and 2 are Cubs/Cards whoever is better at the time. Number 3 is the Red Sox.

Mine right now I save for Cherington and Shelton and Nutting.

Believe me sir..... we know

Don't worry; you'll only have to deal with me through this year if Cherington and Shelton aren't fired. I have a young child and can't waste my time on a loser team disinterested in getting any better. I've set my personal limit to ST 2025 and if it's clear to me they're still not trying I'll walk away from the Pirates the same as I did the Steelers about 8 years ago now. That turned out to be a great decision, personally, looking back.

It's tough being a Bucco fan man. But we love this game and we love our Bucs. I want nothing more than to see a world series game played in Pittsburgh. Not sure we'll get there but a bit of optimism goes a long ways in life. Maybe a hopeless dream but a much more enjoyable ride than bitching about the complete obvious most casual fans have known for years

I'll be optimistic when the team is coached well, plays well and has a well-rounded roster that looks like it can win a playoff series, personally. Until then I'll root for the players I like and clown the players I don't and ceaselessly and endlessly make fun of Cheri, Shelton and Nutting for their incompetence and cowardice.

Ehhh, fair enough. I get as bent out of shape as anyone when it comes to baseball but it's my outlet from the craziness and too often shittiness of life

Rowdy hit a HR tonight.

Two at bats after I compared him to slap hitter Rod Carew, which was later changed to Rowdy Carew. Carew did have 92 homers in his career which is shy of the 97 Rowdy has.

Look at him in his post game interview. In my dreams, he's my wingman.
