Locke vs. Wainwright should be a great match-up on the mound. Just need to keep the Cards to that "2 or fewer runs" output they've been putting up for the last week or so.

No, I'm not. Just didn't feel like responding when I saw it. LOL. Either the North Shore or one of the parking garages downtown and then just walk over the Clemente Bridge to PNC.

All the games I've been to were with family so I didn't hit any bars. Just pick one and enjoy yourself. Or you could just spend a small fortune on shitty beer at the game. LOL

Enjoy yourself and Go Bucs! We might go to PNC for a game Saturday evening or Sunday afternoon.

5-4 Buccos win! Gonna take at least 4/5 from the Cards with a chance to break out the brooms for a 5-game sweep tomorrow. Wow. Just...wow.

Nice! My goal got reached, now let's see if they can exceed it. At worst, at 1.5 game lead; at best, a 3.5 game lead. Won't complain about either, but bigger is better in this division!

True dat! And gotta give you guys credit. At the very least, over the past week or so, the Tribe's been as entertaining as any team as far as pulling wins out their ass goes. Last night's comeback was a work of art!

Thought so but was really surprised as Columbus isn't that close and is more of a reds market

This. The MLB blackout shit is just obscene. If you're in central Ohio and want to watch the Pirates (without paying for some MLB package), they have to be playing the Reds (FSO), Indians (STO) or a Chicago team on WGN.

Not something we really had to worry about before since the team never was on TV because they always sucked. Now that they're getting better and worth putting on TV, it's a real bitch.

Pirates taking a serious ass whipping tonight. I'll take the 4 wins in 5 games with a blowout loss though.

Looked like Morton wasn't that good and then Jeanmar put it out of reach by really Zagurski-ing his appearance.
