Pirates feed
wasn’t working. Milledge up to bat, Oswalt struck out Raynor and Young.
Lee apparently tracks down a deep Milledge fly to end the half.

We did it! We did it! We did it!
No further damage.
Hey it's back
Steele got on base and stole a base, but other than that no damage in the third. Young, Milledge, Jones due up for the fourth.

Wakey wakey
Duke doubled, otherwise bupkis (sp?). Raynor taking the golden opportunity to fan twice so far.
lol
I think it is “bumpkis”, but also not sure.
Young grounds out, and my feed is fubared again…sigh

look's like
MLB is having issues. All the audio feeds have been turned off. At least they’ve been ramping up the boxscore activity in the last week, now it’s only a few batters behind. :)

Box is way behind of course, but 1-0 Pirates
Stings double, Clement singled him in. Duke stellar through 4.
Duke was cruising for a while there. He was supposed to go 5 or 6, but they let him go back out for the 7th since he had set down 10 in a row going in and was under the pitch count. He got the first two there then gave up his second single of the day, so they pulled him. Left the field to a nice ovation.
Vazquez
Is there any reason we’re wasting at bats on vazquez?
The two lefties (Lopez and Taschner) had a tough inning out of the pen. It was 2-0, now it’s 4-2. Lopez gave up a walk, a bunt single, then a ground ball single past the diving Josh Harrison at third to score a run.
Taschner proceeded to walk another guy, then give up a 3 run triple. 3 runs charged to Lopez (his first of the spring), 1 to Taschner.
that really irritates you
we managed to scrape out some hard-earned runs against a tough starter, and our pen comes in and walks some guys, give up a few hits and a bunch of runs.

bottom ninth
Gonzalez on second, Harrison at the plate
Harrison pops out (apparently, the Astros announcers were more concerned with the dude’s sunglasses than the play by play), two outs.

sorry
that was top of the ninth. Apparently it’s 4-4 now, heading to the bottom of the ninth as Kratz foul tips a strikeout.

Powell in to pitch
Castro, Maysonnet and pitchers spot due

flyout
to Grossman just left of center

Shelton bats
fly ball to deep right, Raynor back and “makes a diving effort for it, not necessarily a good one” but misses the ball. “He looked like had it measured…but didn’t take a good route to the ball, didn’t find the wall”. “Don’t want to be too harsh on Raynor…it didn’t look pretty that’s for sure…that’s a fly ball that’s typically caught”.
Kata pinch runs for Shelton.
Chris Johnson two-run HR to center, “well over the wall”. Astros win 6-4.

Sounds like there may have been some odd wind.
They were saying that Grossman didn’t have a good read on Johnson’s HR, either.
