Brooms?

Early start today and the Bucs are already out to a 5-0 lead thanks to a Bay grand slam and some breaks. Jack's back in the lineup today and he's 1-for-1 with a single. I like the way Tracy shuffled things to keep Freddy in the lineup (Freddy to third, Bautista to center), but it's pretty much inexcusable that Hernandez is starting at first base. Of course that may not matter, as Castillo just singled up the middle to be the eighth consectuve Pirate to reach base (he's the 8 hitter again today) and we're up 6-0. Of course, with Victor Santos on the mound, no lead is safe.
