Speaking of blown saves, Chapman is doing his best to blow a 4 run lead without giving up a hit.

I've seen games go perfect for 12 innings all for naught. I've seen no-hitters pitched on illicit drugs. Homer streaks lasting eight games and 20 run losses. I've seen pennants won and seasons collapse. All these memories will be lost in time. Like tears in the rain.

Time to die.
Between this losing streak and Sophie Masloff dying it is not a good time to be a Pittsburgher.

loving Rockies. But hey, at least it wasn't as bad as it could have been.

«Edit»

Heh... wow, I just noticed that the pitcher, Hawksworth, was batting 8th in this game! Oh, TLR, you rascal!

(Aaron Miles, the infielder who was the team's favorite backup reliever, was batting 9th. At least something about this game can make me laugh.)

The most productive Tigers’ position player since the All Star break has been Austin Jackson, who was traded to Seattle over two weeks ago. (i.e. AJax did more in two weeks than any other player has done in a month).

The Mets broadcast had a better home run call. Keith Hernandez just groans.

He won't. There's no reason to start his clock and the Cubs don't really have a spot available for him. Soler probably will be up soon enough, though.

I thought Sept call-ups didn't count against the arb clock.
