Brewers 6 Pirates 5- While you were apathetic
Here's a funny story, the Pirates already played today!
I honestly had no clue today was a day game, and judging by the results I'm glad I didn't. Yet again, we fell behind, battled back to take a lead, then let the bullpen blow it. This time it happened via a Prince Fielder 2 run pinch hit jack off of Jose Mesa (2-8) in the bottom of the 9th. Yep, he walked Overbay on four pitches, then grooved an 0-1 pitch to Fielder which was then presumably crushed towards South America. Redman started and gave up four runs in the first two innings (and would have given up more if not for Mackowiak gunning Rickie Weekes at the plate). For us, let's see, Doumit RBI single, Bay solo homer, and Wigginton with an unfortunate 3-run shot (unfortunate because every time he produces at the plate it guarantees him more playing time, and thus more butchering of the third base position that would make Brooks Robinson spin in his grave... if he were dead).
