Seems like Harang always gets hit hard in the first inning.
Games are won on run differential -- scoring more than your opponent. Runs are runs, scored or prevented they all count the same. Worry about scoring more and allowing fewer, not which positions contribute to which side of the equation or how "consistent" you are at your current level of performance.
Phillps vs Votto -- God forbid the pirates bring in their LOOGY to face two guys who hit lefties pretty darn well.
I will never understand the value of splitting your lefties for the sake of possible plate appearance while harming yourself for the first 3 times through the order.

LaRoche grounds out to 1st. Nice stop by Votto. Runner goes to 3rd. 2 outs.
Good job by Harang to strand the runner.
“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”
Nady fouls out to right. 1-0 Pirates mid 1st.

Let's see some old school Dumatrait.

Freel grounds out to 3rd. 1 out.
Wow, so your 3rd game in the bigs and you're already in the 3 hole?? I am actually SHOCKED that Dusty would do that.
Infield hit for Hairston
How dare he hit the Bruce!
