From DK:

Sanchez explained that his back still is not really loose, reiterating that it happened while getting out of a cab yesterday. Sure sounds like he will not play tomorrow, either. He felt no pull, more of a spasm. “It’s a tough time to be out right now because we’re right there in our division,” Sanchez said.

Free your ass and your mind will follow.

What good is a local sports channel that doesn’t even have the local sports game?

Ugh damn it........

But hey, they have World Series of Poker on!

I Like Poker

Poker is fun. I play poker. I watch poker.

But still, it’s not really the point of a local sports network, is it?

I’ll be listening to 104.7 FM, as usual.

I like poker too....

I like to play for money and for fun. I watch it sometimes too. I completely agree with you Jim…. Why the hell do they air poker instead of the Pirates?

You never watch any of the games?

I'm Not A Big TV Guy

I’ll watch the game if I’m at a friend’s house, but I don’t have cable at my own house.

I listen on the radio, or actually go to the park.

I couldn't survive without tv or internet...

I love going to games in person. Especially when I get a seat in the handicap section on 1st baseline. Right on the field…

It was only a matter of time. You can’t hold him down forever. But it’s only two runs. If we can’t score two runs, we don’t deserve to win anyway. Not a good start for Dukie, though.

Diaz should have had a bunt single but for some reason scored it as an error

Just wondering

how do you get a bunt single to first? Did Duke not cover first, or is Bonifacio just that fast?

by DialedtoGiles on Jul 4, 2009 6:50 PM EDT reply actions  

Bonifacio can fly.

by mspirate on Jul 4, 2009 6:51 PM EDT up reply actions  

It was more toward 2nd, just past Duke, but yea he is very fast.

Jack’s been doing that “push” bunt a lot lately (as he should). If you can get it by the pitcher, it’s a hit even if you don’t have great speed.

by mspirate on Jul 4, 2009 7:02 PM EDT up reply actions  

What does Jack bunting have to do with anything?

The bunt that Bonifacio put down is the same kind of thing that Jack has been trying recently, where you try to push the ball just past the pitcher in no man’s land for an easy hit. Just mentioning it.

by mspirate on Jul 4, 2009 7:10 PM EDT up reply actions  

Awesome!

Diaz guns down Bonafacio trying to steal 3rd.

Nice job, Garrett. Two first pitch home runs in the inning?

Man that Garrett Jones is a great prospect. If he doesn’t get to play every day I’ll never set foot in PNC park again!

by gorillakilla34 on Jul 4, 2009 7:56 PM EDT up reply actions  

I’m not saying he’s a good prospect or even that good of a player, but it makes Huntington look real good to replace Hinske with him while still getting prospects back at the same time. That’s my point.

by Suffering Buc on Jul 4, 2009 7:57 PM EDT up reply actions  

I know man. I’m sorry. I actually meant to put in the general comments and not under your comment. I agree he is already WAY better that Henske.

Replacement Player

I think the whole concept of a Replacement Player is that if you ditch some 31 year old scrub, there’s a 27 year old scrub waiting somewhere to replace him, cheap.

Diaz has done a good job of solidifying himself as the odd man out once Doumit gets back.

Pearce came up to pinch hit, and the Marlins brought in a righty. So JR sent up Moss.

by Suffering Buc on Jul 4, 2009 8:14 PM EDT up reply actions  

I like Mossome and all

but maybe he should just let the guy he spends up bat sometimes.

Also, does that mean Pearce can’t bat later in the game if need be?

Yes, but that’s not why. We went downtown to the Taste of Chicago & to watch the fireworks.

I had posted that up right after I did the lineups, I thought. Perhaps it got deleted.

Seems I didn’t miss much.

He minimized the damage. The ump blew the strikeout call on Hermida as well. He also made Cantu look silly.
