    What a stupid, freaking call if that was from the dugout.
    Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.

    No second guessing there. That was just DUMB as hell no way around it. Swanson got a hit so it still got the pitcher out of the way. But still any way ya look at it. You're a CATCHER trying to steal 3RD with ONE OUT with the 8 HITTER up... SMH

    Had to have been, now way Flowers all of a sudden got the confidence to steal a base when he doesn't have a single one all year...I missed it though, I'll just pretend it was a botched hit and run

    Time for some Nickrophilia!

    PS--Just started following the game so I missed the Flowers attempted steal. One of two explanations: (1) Snitker thought it was Richmond Flowers (look it up) on second base, or (2) Snitker knows Swanson can hit with runners in scoring position. He wants to figure out if Swanson can hit with the bases empty.

    I went to 2 games at suntrust, but apparently I didn't check out the chop house closely enough. Do those sitting in rf have tix for those seats or are they just dining in the restaurant?

    Albies needs to get the ball in the air. No hits there.

    Albies was robbed in this inning.

    Are we trying to get thrown out running the bases? Unbelievably stupid the last few games.
