Walked a guy hitting .188
Walked a guy hitting .215
Walked a guy hitting .056

Gives up a ringing double to score the walks.

Acquire some starting pitching, Pirates. You're boned with this mental midget at the wheel.

To be honest hes a hit or miss pitcher. Either he has a fabulous game or shit. Walks a lot too when hes off.

[hawley]

On the under?

[rm18]

AJ Burnett probably

On the under?

Yep. Looked solid before McDonald walked all of the wish they were Mendoza guys. Unreal.

His control problems come and go. If the Pirates make the playoffs, fading him in said playoffs would be a wise, wise decision.

Get it son

[mynameismud]

I did see some talk about backing the Pirates... not sure how anyone would fade Malholm right now... 3 ER in his last 5 starts I believe coming in.

Hope to God McDonald calms the FUKK down and realizes he can only beat himself the rest of his outing. Maybe a 4-3 Pirates win for you.

[PickWinnerAllDay]

ehh fukk me, this mental midget is taking me and the pirates down with him... McDonald... permanent fade list, what a jackass.

Unreal how someone gets paid to play major league baseball and walks 3 guys hitting .212 or less in an inning... 4 pitch walk to .056 Malholm is indefensible.

[PickWinnerAllDay]

smells like a 6-2 final...

All because that asshole walks the pitcher. Unreal. I am getting tired of baseball betting.

[YorkHunt]

Gotta love it when pinch hitters swing at first pitch of a pitcher whos been pitching nasty all game.

Who are you on here?

pirates bet is dead unless Marmol gives up 6.

[YorkHunt]

Im on the under pal

[PickWinnerAllDay]

Im on the under pal

	J Hughes relieved J McDonald.	5	1
Paul Maholm	Strike (looking), Strike (swinging), Strike (swinging), P Maholm struck out swinging	5	1

Most of this forum could strike out Maholm on 3 pitches... damn it McDonald.

[PickWinnerAllDay]

No Hughes makes an error right before the 3 big bats for the Cubs.

Pirates... team is shit.

[sportsguy04]

Under 7.5 for me

[Chi_archie]

yes we are defining guys based on this one game....

I've never seen a better pitcher than Maholm in my life since Kerry Wood!

guy has only thrown one bad pitch!

[PickWinnerAllDay]

Under 7.5 for me

If the Pirates were major league caliber today, would have been a solid win.

You think this kid has the mentality to be elite? I don't chi... I just don't.

im so stoked for football. cant come soon enough.

[sportsguy04]

Shhhh.... We're quietly going to bring this home.

[hawley]

What was the total? 7.5? 8?

[sportsguy04]

7.5

[PickWinnerAllDay]

god damn it

0-2 count to Soriano, the easiest player in baseball to strike out with 2 strikes this side of Adam Dunn and Lincoln gives up a single. Unreal.

Pirates' whole roster got some serious mental defects.

[sportsguy04]

Chill bro.

[PickWinnerAllDay]

Chill bro.

Baseball is a game of intelligence. Pirates' players don't have any if today is any indication.

[sportsguy04]

Pirates pen is solid that's not my worries.

[PickWinnerAllDay]

Castro ya fukk

[sportsguy04]

Cubs will have bottom line up due up top 9. This inning and bottom 9 what I worry about.

[PickWinnerAllDay]

Pirates pen is solid that's not my worries.

I'm worried about who will pitch the 9th for the Cubs... I hope Dale has a brain and let Maholm stretch it out to 120. He's fine.

[Chi_archie]

Lol, get it all out man. It's good for the gambling soul. How much do you have on the under? I'll root it in for ya

[sportsguy04]

Double play. That was huge.
