Puke

Awesome Catch Bro.

A lot of expectations for Snell coming in to tonight to forget about '08 and move on too a clean slate. He didn't answer any of those expectations. It's tough to give a good review of a game you had to watch on Justin.tv but it just seemed like Snell was back to the normal- no 1st pitch strikes, Pujols destroyed his life, couldn't get in to the 5th inning. Nothing much else too say, Hinske got his 1st start as a Pirate and went 1-4 with a Double and 2 K's. Bullpen was average. Sean Burnett is a man, plain and simple.

Stats

• W- Lohse
• L- Ian Snell
• Sanchez- 2-4, 2-Run Home Run
• Nyjer- 1-4, Reached Base Twice, 2 Runs
• Andy LaRoche- 0-3, 1 Error.. So on the season that would be 0-6 and 3 Errors.

Miscellaneous

• Anyone else already sick of Andy LaRoche and counting the days till Alvarez..
  
• This whole outing without Ludwick in the lineup
  
• Need a good one out of Zach Duke tomorrow.
