Pirates are in first place for the first time since 1991
Clint Hurdle should get manager of the year, no matter where the Bucco's end up.We have tickets for the remainder of the home series. This division is tight. The St. Louis Cardnials roll in to town Friday. They are a finess team. They make few mistakes.I'm looking for the games to be close and the heat to make the players *edgy*.
Life has been so good this summer. I haven't enjoyed baseball this much, since, well, I don't when.
That darn Lyle Overbay (overpaid you may know him as in my rants) We are nearing the trade deadlines, and I SO want the owners to trade his sorry ass and his outrageous salary, and wouldn't you know it, all of a sudden he can hit WTH!

YES, the Pirates are in First!!! Lookin' good!
It is so much more exciting when divisions are tight, I think. I love close games that end up being won on a whole lot of mental determination really.
I am having a great time with the Giants taking the Dodgers in a series this week. Hope they win again today. My favorite SF pitcher is starting- Lincecum. Jeff Keppinger will be playing today for SF after his trade. We need his bat!! Our offense is just not consistent, although better lately. Had a 5-0 shutout against LA for the first game of the series. And Belt returned to the club yesterday and got a homer - first up, first pitch!!
Have fun at the games! ugh.. yes, the heat!
