Tick-Tac-Toe four in a row, it was fun while it lasted. The luck of the of the Jolly Roger looks like it has wore out Game one in LA, a 11-2 blowout. Game 2 an 8-1 fundamental break down. What can I say, grown men in their late 20’s and early 30’s need to go home, sit down real close to the field and watch a little league team. I coach my son’s 7-8 year team, and I tell them go home and watch a game for homework, I’m really considering not saying that anymore. When you have players dropping balls; trying to flip the ball over to the pitcher at 1st base, and just totally botching it come one.

LaRoche, you wonder why team management didn’t want to work out a long term deal there you go, take g good long look in the mirror bud, your batting .143, with 3 RBI’s, correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t 1st Base suppose to be a semi power position.  All in favor or bringing Bonds back to just stand on the bag and hit 25 home runs a year gimpy leg and all raise your hands.

Jose Bautista I like the guy, don’t get me wrong, but again what’s with the tag, or better yet, the lack there of. Come on man just tag the runner and he’s out, I’m sure that’s how they do it in the Dominican league. Watching a game at times is like watching the 3 stooges or keystone cops, my son goes dad, wasn’t he suppose to do this or do that, and I’m like yes, yes he was and just shake my head, and yell at the TV.

So if anyone reading this can get this post to any pirate player please do, my son’s team has 4 clock game on the 24 of May when you guys get back from the road swing, please come to Wintersville Ohio, and get a refresher course from some people who really know how to play first and second graders.
