Both teams brought their gloves so far tonight.

Frazier pops up to 2nd
“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”
That is K #114 this year for Alvarez.
Is Alvarez the Pirates version of Drew Stubbs?
Stubbs:
.234/.305/.400 for an OPS of .705, with 13 HRs and 23 SBs. (98 Ks)
Alvarez:
.235/.306/.480 for an OPS of .785 with 21 HRs, and 1 SB. (114 Ks)
Stubbs is better on defense, and is faster, while Alvarez has better power. But both have a little 'K problem'.

Nice AB by Heisey, fouling off a lot of pitches

Yay!
Didn't Heisey hit an inside the park home run earlier this year in Pittsburgh? Awesome! Looks like playing him today worked.
Edit: Never mind, he hit it in 2010.

where was MR. MVP on the backup???
Really, really close at home. Heisey gives you an effort.
Cairo grounds out to short.

Score that run for Dusty Baker.

Man, want to see that replay again. Think we got a break on the call at the plate. Sure seemed like Barajas blocked the plate perfectly.
Wow re: Heisey. It is not easy to hit an inside the park home run at GAB.
