Best moment of the night was watching Jose Ramirez knock Tim Anderson on his ass. As for our pirates, they always find a way to Buc things up

while I hope promoting fights does not become the next circus act from this commissioner, I do appreciate this one on one version of a fight much more than the dumb fake dogpile with the bullpen running out from the diamond and the stupid why I oughta pushing and shoving

That’s quite an exaggeration. I don’t think either connected on wild haymakers and Anderson appeared to almost trip over his own feet.

You need your eyes checked before making stupid, uninformed comments

Hard to exaggerate when it's obviously on video

I'd suggest you watch the right hand to the jaw sir.

Loved the announcer going “Down goes Anderson”.

Lol, it was awesome. Not sure what Anderson did that Ramirez took exception to but was thrilled with the outcome

Derek Diamond

Game: 5 IP, 3 ER and 2 K’s.

Season: 9-3 with a 3.95 ERA and 70 strikeouts in 86.2 innings.

2B Charles McAdoo

Game: 2-for-4 with a double.

Season: .500/.615/.600 in three games

Now that he has gotten his feet wet, I am expecting at least 20 points and 15 rebounds on Sunday from Mr McAdoo!

If he could have half the career of big Bob! What a scorer!

Pirate baseball in a nutshell. Sigh.

Bailey didn’t falter, but Bednar did??

The way he’s been since the break, one could sense a blown save coming. Bummer. Even it up today, fellas!

Our two All Stars, of all people let us down.

I look at this the other way. All stars will always have bad games and bad stretches. It’d be nice if anyone else on the team could pick them up.
