Witnessing History

There is an old saying that every time you go to a baseball game, you might see something that's never happened before. Such was the case today as we watched the Pirates lose 20-0 to the Brewers. It was the WORST LOSS IN THE 124 YEAR HISTORY OF THE FRANCHISE!!!!

Worse than the historic blowout, which comes on the tail of 8-1 and 8-0 losses to the Brewers in the series, was the fact that the Pirates, on April 22 in the 15th game of the season, had the look of a team that is 35 games out of first place in the third week of September - just playing out the string.

They now face a 10 game road trip, and if they end up 2-8 or 3-7 on this trip, they'll never recover, and the ever dwindling fan base will be in as ugly a mind set as I've ever known.

The good news is that none of the players, as far as we know, are attempting to seduce any underage college girls during their off hours.
