Pirates take a 3-2 lead in the 8th, but the Brew Crew tie it right back up in the bottom of the 8th with Segura rbi single. 3-3 heading to the 9th.
Pirates back up 4-3.
The Brewers sure do suck... they're the suckiest bunch of sucks that ever sucked.

Wild guess. Daffy Duck. It just sounds like something he would say.The Brewers sure do suck... they're the suckiest bunch of sucks that ever sucked.
Congrats to the Pirates. Those fans have waited a long time.
The Diamondbacks lost again, so the Reds are now 7.5 games up on the next closest competitor (Washington). Arizona is now 8 games behind the Reds.

Since there are no teams on the moon, I guess South Korea's far enough from Cincinnati to satisfy me.

Hey, it's like I was telling someone last night. 6 of our last 9 are against Pitt. We'll get our shot.
Pirates have 7 with Cubs, 4 with Padres and six with Reds after the Cards & Ranger series. I sure hope the Rangers do them some damage because,for the Buccos, after that series, it gets real easy outside of the Reds the rest of the way. Reds may need to take 5 of 6 verses Bucs and at least split these last two with Cards. Still want the Bucs to take 2 of 3 in Saint Loo and hope the Reds can beat them face to face. Seems the best scenario. After the Pirates the Cards play no one of note, really, except they get the Rox in Denver. The Reds face a tough test and need to get hot and play out their minds for the rest of the season.
