did i fall for it lads?

It's a risk because if MadBum is in good form we're really going to struggle, but the Pirates have been hot.
Betting on baseball is a pretty risky prospect imo
>>77308823
For sure, it's a risky prospect without a doubt.I was counting on players not trolling like that with questionable throws : ^).
Bumgarner has struggled a bit after injury but yeah.
>>77308657
Bumgarner has allowed hits in each of the first two innings. This means he'll either unravel and give up 4 runs through 6 innings, or he'll buckle down and throw a CG 4-hitter.
>>77308853
It's early, I think they can survive one error as long as they get out of the inning without too mich damage.
>>77308840
SF trannies keep looking more and more realistic.
>>77308859
>>77308871
Yes I agree, assuming much more damage isn't done here.
If they get out of this without goofing much more / making silly errors I won't be too stressed.
In saying that, it isn't looking great currently.
>>77308893
+ this homebase umpire is a bit of his sperg with his poor favoritism calls
>>77308909
Last night's strike zone was ridiculously small. Made the game so tedious.
>>77308975
Yeah, pretty poor. Pirates just got fucking blacked there too which sucks, shitty way for the ball to bounce.
>the performance of the pirates today
>>77309198
Taillon is serving your $500 up on a silver platter to the gints
>>77309218
Ye, pretty epic.
Another day another meme.
>>77309198
you can't play the fucking Brewers every game
>t. Brewers fan
>>77309274
Brewers looked good against the Nats today, too.
>>77309382
we play up to good competition and play down to shitty teams
>>77309402
why the fuck was taillon still in this game
>>77308657
lol
Weird to have watched so many high-scoring games recently. Tonight and last night, Brewers today, Astros v Orioles over the weekend...but most have been boringly one-sided.
NUNEZ NO
>>77308657
ouch
>>77309749
Kek, all good lad.
Just turned the tv off after the 3rd though which sucks, would've preferred a close enjoyable match.
>>77308657
Ouch. That hurts even more than that umpire's knee.
Looks like Nuñez is going to the Red Sox.
Sad to see him go but good for him, he'll have a chance for the playoffs.
Nuñez' teammates tell him he's been traded to Boston (listen for Matt Moore saying "Boston" at 0:32).
