Josh Phelps batting 2nd for the Cards. Nice to see him back.

The cards just love to lose to us. Not bad so far though. Maholm looks solid

I made most of my life decisions at a Foghat concert... I stand by them.

I saw DAT

Go Nate!! Still pushing to be a 25-25 guy.

Maholm thinks he has to pitch a complete game

After his last start, when he had to go Rochambeau on Bautista and Grabow.

It would be nice if they would make an effort to get Nate 100 RBI’s. Give the team something positive to work on, and give Russell a chance to explore the OBP concept.

I woulda doubted you

But Nate’s up to 89 RBI’s now, so I guess there is a chance. Of course, the PBC has scored about a week’s worth of runs tonite.

You think he’s got 5 more HR’s in his bat for 30?

Home runs are a private goal. 100 RBI’s involves the team.

Wow

I was not expecting the Cardinals to look this bad. Some good plays by the Pirates though, making the plays when they need to.

That was awesome.

Few things in baseball give me more satisfaction than beating the snot out of La Genius and the Cardinals.

by matskralc on Sep 12, 2008 9:47 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

So,

everyone has both a hit and a run scored except Bix, Mario & Luigi…

Maybe the Cards

just want to keep the PBC batting in the 5th until the rain comes back and make them replay the game? :)

I agree

but Maholm has spent a lot of time on the basepaths tonite, so I wouldn’t take a chance on going past 90 pitches.

Tracy would pull Maholm, just so that he could bring him back one extra time to reach the coveted 10 win plateau.

Also,

2nd article says A. McCutch & Walker up for the weekend as well.

I say JR

will pull Malholm after the 7th.

Nate has also , , ,

. . . gone over 100 Runs scored tonite. He’s at 102.

Runs is one of my favorite stats.

spinnin’ a beaut, ain’t he?

88 pitches

and Maholm up 4th in the inning. 10 run lead. Time to shut him down for tonite, JR.

Better question:

Why does John Russell have Nyjer batting????

(can’t resist)

by matskralc on Sep 12, 2008 10:28 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Thanks anyway,

Gamecast caught up.

I wasn’t paying attention until Nate came up, so I couldn’t help ya.

by matskralc on Sep 12, 2008 10:36 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

And for those of you without TV

It wasn’t even close. The throw was way wild and would have gotten Nate by a mile.
