How did that NOT go out?!? I thought that was gone for sure. Moss pulls it in at the wall.
I can't remember the last time I saw Bruce swing at a pitch OUT of the zone. Really nice to see.

Wlad K's to end the inning. 3-0 Pirates after 4.
back to back K's brings Justin's total to 5.
pop out to stubbs and it's a 1-2-3 for Bronson....I mean Justin. :O)
Hmmmmm... 6-0 White Sox over the Tigers and Twins up 5-0 over Royals. 1 game lead with 2 games left?
1-2-3 for McCutchen.
KKKKKK
102 pitches
9 straight sat down by Lehr. Hell, let 'em throw the complete game. :O) J/K
Should be his last inning. As far as I'm concerned he's earned a legit shot at the 5th starters spot. I know his ERA is garbage, but this guy has given us EVERYTHING he's got and regardless of HOW he does it...all he's done this year is win.
Janish led off with a double, his 21st of the year. Votto lined out to left (great snag, robbed Joey of a double) & Brandon struck out. It's up to Scott.

Ground out to 2nd. 3-0 Bucs it remains.
I know most people here dislike Janish's bat, but for half a season (which is what he's basically played, 250 ab's)...21 doubles is nothing to sneeze at.
Viola in for the 7th.
Lehr clearly didn't have much in the tank tonight, but 6 innings with only 3 runs...scrappy.
1 pitch ground out, and back to back K's for Pedro. Nice.
I got curious, so I looked. This year, between the minors & bigs...Lehr is 18-5. ERA, SchmERA. Get me the W.
I like Viola. He looks and throws like Tom Hall used to.
Too bad that Brandon will not get his 100 RBI's...unless he goes off in next 2 days.
